THE KANDI SILHOUETTE

A signature piece from the Héritage & Essence collection, the Maxi Kandi Dress draws profound inspiration from the iconic "grand boubou" of the West African region.

This design also pays homage to the traditional dresses of the Senegalese Signares and the timeless tunics of the sub-region, weaving together elements that celebrate our rich cultural heritage.

Originally crafted from a captivating blend of Shantung and silk, the dress features a distinctive blouse-like structure, elegantly finished with a lavallière collar that adds a refined touch. It merges the essence of heritage with contemporary innovation, embodying the timeless beauty and charm of Maison Kébé.

In the Torodo Collection, the Maxi Kandi Dress undergoes a creative transformation, with its classic cut deconstructed and reimagined through a series of fresh interpretations. From the Denim Maxi Kandi Skirt, which offers a modern twist with a cavalière-inspired waistline and voluminous pleats, to the playful Mini Kandi Skirt, which translates the elegance of the original into a shorter, dynamic form—each piece presents a new take on the signature silhouette.

These declinations not only retain the foundational elements of the original dress but also bring a versatile edge to its design, making the Maxi Kandi a canvas for artistic expression across various styles. Each version stands as a testament to Maison Kébé’s commitment to blending tradition with contemporary fashion, inviting wearers to experience heritage in a modern context.
