WHAT IS KOKO DUNDA FABRIC?

-Recognizable by its often multicolored stripes, the Koko Dunda is obtained thanks to a technique of dyeing of several generations. Folded in the shape of a fan or accordion between pieces of worn air chambers and tied with nylon thread; to create unique patterns, the textile is dyed by hand. Using a process of dipping the blank loincloth, successively in coloured baths, from the lightest to the darkest colour, the different shades are obtained

 

- The KOKO DUNDA craftsmanship & skill has been passed down & taught from generations of Burkinabé families . It’s called Kampala in Benin republic and ADIRE in Nigeria .
