Inspired by the calm and power of the sea, the ocean-inspired Ohemaa Samba Kaftan flows effortlessly in shades of emerald green and mint. Crafted from luxurious satin, it drapes fluidly against the body — luminous, elegant, and irresistibly soft to the touch.
The design is brought to life by hand-placed cowrie shells cascading down the center and across the fabric — a nod to Kua’s signature storytelling through symbolism. In many African cultures, cowries represent femininity, wealth, and protection, making this piece both spiritual and stylish.
Inside, a hidden drawstring at the waist allows you to cinch and shape your silhouette, transforming the kaftan from a relaxed flow to a more defined, tailored look. Whether worn loose for effortless grace or drawn in for subtle structure, it adapts beautifully to every mood and occasion.
Material: Satin
Details: Two-tone color palette (emerald & mint), hand-applied cowrie shells, hidden inner string for waist cinching, fluid silhouette, ankle-length drape
Made in Ghana
