This Anita dress features Virgillia Multa's design, which depicts the ininti - the batwinged coral tree - growing in sand around creek beds at Muruntji, west of Kungkayunti (Brown's Bore). The seeds range from dark red to light yellow; the flowers from rich orange to red. The seeds are still collected today and made into jewellery at Ikuntji Artists.
Virgillia was born in 1990 in Alice Springs. Her Country is Kungkayunti (Brown's Bore) and she has been painting at Ikuntji Artists since 2013, working alongside her family.
A 1970s-style oversized maxi dress - a statement piece for occasions worth dressing for. Relaxed through the body with a flowing silhouette.
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.
