Dutch Wax print

Dutch Wax print, also known as Ankara, is a distinctive, colorful fabric that originates from West Africa but has Dutch roots. These fabrics are made using a unique printing technique that involves applying wax to certain areas of cotton cloth, creating vibrant patterns. Although associated with African culture, the technique was originally adapted by Dutch traders from Indonesian batik methods. Today, Dutch Wax prints are celebrated for their bold designs and are commonly used in clothing, accessories, and home décor, symbolizing cultural identity and creativity in fashion.
