The ALADI dress is a captivating halter-neck gown that merges heritage weaving with a flowing, romantic silhouette. The fitted bodice is crafted from red-and-white Idoma check weave, contouring the torso with precision tailoring. It transitions into a voluminous, pleated gingham skirt in matching red and white, designed to move fluidly with every step. The high-neck halter fastening adds elegance, while the contrast of textures showcases a modern reimagining of traditional style.
