It's safe to say I'm obsessed with Batakari or Fugu smocks. I actually feel sexy and confident in them. It is certainly one way to stand out. I can wear them as a dress/top with a skirt or a pair of shorts underneath. They look cute and feminine with a belt to cinch the waist. I definitely prefer wearing them baggy with a pair of high heels.
I'll be driving around and searching for more Batakari smocks over the next few days. I'm excited about making this a series. So much culture, sophistication and attitude in one outfit!
You can purchase these Batakari smocks on Depop. Just download the app and search for Akwiyah. All the pieces worn in this post are available to ship worldwide :)
