You've heard of Lourdes but have you heard of Awhum? This site in Nigeria's south-central Enugu State is a waterfall and a cave, and the center of much Christian healing belief in the area. It even houses a monastery. The Awhum dress is elegant and cascading, with colors and vertical lines reminiscent of the luminescence and erosion-wrought scarification of the Awhum cave walls. - 100% silk main bodice; 100% silk sleeves - Intricate Lagos-lattice treatment on lower part of dress - Sculptural 3D floral/rose cups - Nigerian-made from local aso-oke fabric and imported silk - zipper in back - scallop design across clavicle area - constructed from about 100 strips and hexagons of locally-woven fabric - free worldwide shipping
