About This Piece

The Marianne Greta Dress is unapologetically bold, feminine, and full of character. Crafted from vibrant West African wax fabric, this limited-edition piece combines vintage charm with hand-finished artistry.

Each dress features a fitted bodice, ruffled collar, puffed sleeves, and of course, pockets — all signature Kemi Telford details designed for women who want to feel seen.

Our artisans spent a full day hand-embellishing the chest of each dress with shimmering sequins and beads. Every stitch, every sparkle is placed by hand, making each Greta dress a one-of-a-kind treasure. The intricate beadwork celebrates craftsmanship while allowing the bold pattern to shine.

Only a handful have been made. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Before You Order

Which size should I choose?

Take your usual Kemi Telford size. The bodice is fitted with no stretch, so it sits closest through the ribcage, not just the bust. If you are fuller or broader there, size up. Sifan (36" bust) wears M and Naran (32" bust) wears S.

How does it fasten?

There is an enclosed zip at the back, so it is easier with a bit of help getting in and out.

Is the belt included?

The green swirl belt shown is for styling only and is sold separately.
