The Heavenly Bahia is one my my favorite “good for several years” styles! It is modern and sporty and stylish. The drawstrings enable you to wear it a different way each time: if you pull the drawstrings tight around your hips, you can wear it baggy. If you make it even tighter and bring it up to the waist, then you effectively shorten the tunic and it becomes a T-shirt. Loosen the strings, or even take them out (you can put them back in) and you will be able to wear this tunic as a short dress. You can also find many creative ways to style yourself and combine this tunic with shorts, tights, pants, etc.

At first I envisioned a simple T-shirt design as the starting point for this piece. But I didn’t like the idea of designing just another T-shirt to add to the mountains of T-shirts already in production! The fine difference of having a Moon neck (this is one signature design element of Prancing Leopard) was not enough to legitimatize the “just another T-shirt argument”!

We call this Tunic “Heavenly Bahia” because we love Bahia and had a wonderful time there in Morro de Sao Paulo just a few years back. Just the unspoiled nature, and the beauty and soul of the Bahianas (not to mention their heavenly food!), and of course the sense of style, music and love of life which vibrates through every pore when you are there.

You will love this very high quality product. This is not just my favorite . . . . we have sold a lot of them already. Our dear customers like the idea of dressing flexibly!

It comes in:
Charcoal Black with a grey Prancing Leopard appliqué - cotton Jersey -95% organic cotton 5 % Lycra
Cloud Gray with a black Prancing Leopard appliqué - cotton Jersey -95% organic cotton 5 % Lycra
and in Silver Grey without the Prancing Leopard appliqué in fine mercerized silky 100% organic cotton.

I am also planning a Panther Pink without a Logo and our earthy Mango Orange, both without logo in fine 100 % organic cotton. What do you think? Which colors are your favorites?

Namaste!
