Eyi is a spirited, contemporary interpretation of Idoma heritage. The tailored V-neck jacket with short, structured sleeves cinches at the waist before flaring subtly at the hips, creating a flattering hourglass shape. Paired with matching high-waisted shorts, this set delivers both sophistication and playful charm. The vibrant red-and-white woven check fabric draws directly from traditional Idoma patterns, while the modern cut makes it perfect for stylish cultural events, performances, or confident street-style moments.
