Description

About the Print:

Our Keteka print is inspired by shweshwe, a printed dyed cotton fabric commonly used for traditional South African clothing. Originally dyed indigo, shweshwe fabric features intricate geometric patterns and is traditionally worn by newly married Xhosa women and married Sotho women. We've named this print "Keteka" which is the Sesotho word for "celebrate."

About the Style:

Style and comfort are a perfect match in our short sleeve dress, wonderful for everyday play. Snaps on the back of the dress make dressing a breeze, even for the squirmiest of toddlers. Made from organic cotton, this dress is comfortable, soft and safe for your toddler’s skin. The fabric and cut give room for your child to grow, staying stylish for even longer!

    • Super soft and lightweight 100% organic cotton
    • Snaps on the back for easy dressing and undressing

    Our products make it easy and comfortable to bring the beauty of African design into everyday play.

    Our Story

    Hi! I'm Temidayo, the mom behind Ade + Ayo. I created Ade + Ayo when I was pregnant with my son and I couldn't find children's products that would introduce him to African cultures while fitting into his everyday life. I wanted to change that so that my son, and all of our kids, can grow up with pride and respect for what Africa has to offer.

    We use 100% organic cotton.

    Safe for kids. Good for the environment.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is Ade + Ayo black-owned?

    Yes, Ade + Ayo is owned by a Nigerian mom - so we’re proudly black- and woman-owned!

    Is it cultural appropriation for my child to use Ade + Ayo products if we’re not African or of African descent?

    Great question! I created Ade + Ayo to make beautiful African design more accessible to children. I hope to spark curiosity, love and respect for the people and cultures that inspire our products. From my perspective, it’s not cultural appropriation. When you receive your Ade + Ayo pieces, it’s important that your family interacts with these items from a place of celebration and respect for the cultures and people from whom they originate. You can read more about this on our main FAQ page!
