This Doris Day shift dress is printed with Pam Brown's design, which depicts the Papa Tjukurrpa - the Dog Dreaming. The country for this Tjukurrpa is at Nyuman, a little outstation three hours south-west of Kintore. The dog lives at this place and can be seen as a rock. Pam painted the men's ceremonial design associated with the Dog Dreaming - the diamond shape painted onto the men's bodies during ceremony.
Pam Brown was born in Papunya in 1960 and was based at Haasts Bluff, where she was a director of Ikuntji Artists.
A 1960s-inspired shift dress in a flattering A-line silhouette, finishing just above the knee. Mid-length sleeves and two scoop side pockets.
Hand-screen printed in Australia. This is not fashion inspired by Aboriginal art. This is Aboriginal art, worn.
Every purchase from Ikuntji Artists goes directly back to the artist and the community of Haasts Bluff. Ikuntji Artists Aboriginal Corporation is 100% Aboriginal owned and governed - the first art centre in the Western Desert founded by women, for women, in 1992.
Care: Cold gentle machine or hand wash, drip dry in shade, warm iron. Avoid tumble dryer and dry cleaner.
