Women Dreaming Sarong

This 45 x 66 in (115 x 168 cm) sarong in silk cotton is printed with Women Dreaming, an Aboriginal art collaboration.

Agnes has painted a top-down map of Country: the route women take when they go out "hunting" for bush banana, bush tomato and other important bush foods of the Northern Tanami Desert. At either end of the hunt the women rest, sitting around campfires where they make tea in billycans or repurposed tins and winnow seeds for flour. The horseshoe shapes are the sitting women seen from above, and the undulating, endless line is the path they take, winding through bushland thick with acacias and ghost gums, to find the fruiting trees. A collaboration between Warlpiri artist Agnes Napanangka Donnelly and Elissa Nampijinpa Conoscente. 100% Australian artwork.

Ways to wear it

There are so many ways to wear a sarong: wrap it around you bandeau-style, double-twist it at the front, or simply tie it around your waist. You can even tie it over your clothes in several ways, like a kimono. And because it's #notjustasarong, for truly effortless elegance simply roll it up and loop it around your neck a few times as a scarf.
