“Bahari” means sea in Swahili—a powerful symbol of how these women, like the sea, sustain life in their communities. Inspired by the proverb, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime,” this collection represents lasting empowerment. Every purchase creates jobs for women and fuels generational change.
The Tesoro Collection, featuring exclusives styles by Natalie Simkins, celebrates the effortless elegance of the Amalfi Coast and the French Riviera. Inspired by the global woman, each piece showcases artisanal craftsmanship and is thoughtfully created using upcycled materials sourced from Australia, Africa, and Europe.
The Begum Top - Black, White & Gold is a masterpiece of intricate embroidery and timeless elegance. Crafted from 100% linen, this crop top features exquisite silk and gold thread floral embroidery, meticulously designed by our atelier. The adjustable bowtie shoulder and back straps add a touch of femininity while ensuring a perfect fit. Whether for a formal event or a chic casual outing, the Begum Top brings sophistication to any occasion.
Style Tip:
Pair it with the Begum Skirt for a striking head-to-toe Rosewater House signature look, or style it with high-waisted trousers for an effortlessly elegant ensemble.
