19 Ways To Wear One Garment
HOW TO STYLE OUR CONVERTIBLE PIECES
As a sustainable brand that values an iterative philosophy, we always think of ways to prolong the life cycle of each Diarrablu hand-made piece that enters into our muses' wardrobes. The UMY Jumpsuit was one of our first styles back in 2015 and we've been revisiting it every single collection in new prints.
We've gathered 19 ways to wear this remarkable piece, which can also be applied to its dress version, the MAILYS Dress.
It is important for us to design pieces that can be worn different ways and across different sizes (XS-3XL). We also ensure that pieces are adjusted to your height so that you can experience the bespoke experience from an African artisanal studio.

Our flexible sizing and versatile design philosophy centered around convertibility is deeply rooted in West African culture where wrap skirts and boubou dresses were always oversized and wrapped around to be adjusted to fit anyone while being comfortable. Clothes were therefore passed down from generation with very little wastage as sizing was never a limiting factor.
When it comes to styling, our muses are queens! We have seen stunning outfits and even more ways to style these two endless strips of fabric. Use your imagination and be sure to check out more ideas on our Instagram (Muses highlight) @thediarrablu.
