Mama has put some items together to help you incorporate gorgeous African style into your wardrobe. Whether it's a dress from Mali, or an interesting woven purse from Lesotho, you'll find it all here.

The smocks and dresses which are "one size fits most" are usually smocks or lose fitting dresses which fit sizes small through large. Mama will indicate when they are made for plus sized men and women. The smocks from Ghana though are cut large traditionally, so they generally fit anyone from size small through XXL (2X). If you have questions concerning sizes, just email Mama by clicking here.
