Wild elegance

The Shell Tee is one of my favourite classic Kuwaii designs. It is elegant and can be formal or casual, and I have it in several colours and fabrics. This Leopard print is my favourite yet. The organic cotton fabric holds the folds of the tee firmly so it feels like you are wearing a sculpture or artwork. Mainly I like that it unapologetically makes a bold statement in classic style. 🐆
