Fabric Inspiration

This top is made from a bold and colourful fabric which originates from Angola and goes by the name Samakaka (or Samacaca). Although it is produced in a variety of colour combinations, the most common Samakaka print (as used in this top) uses black, red and white – the colours of the Angolan flag. The black represents the people of the African continent, the red represents the bloodshed from Angola’s liberation struggle, and the yellow represents the wealth of the country. The geometric shapes on the fabric are rooted in traditional symbols, primarily from the Mumuila tribe of the Huila region of southern Angola. Samakaka is featured in other Gavastie Collection products. Search ‘samakaka’ on this site to find out more.
