Oluwadamilola Adeyinka Shofarasin, the visionary force behind Dhven Touch, introduces ACTIVA — a bold and spirited design that radiates African femininity through every stitch. Crafted from richly toned Ankara fabric, ACTIVA underscores a statement of cultural pride, youthfulness, and joy.

What makes ACTIVA instantly captivating is its playful silhouette. The dress flows with an effortless grace, featuring a gently flared hem and flutter sleeves that bring lightness and movement. Its round neckline with a subtle bow tie adds a charming, almost whimsical touch. The fabric choice is striking, with a vibrant swirl of purples, pinks, and blacks in bold circular motifs that create visual interest and rhythm. The patterns feel alive, like they’re dancing across the fabric, catching light and attention in equal measure.

ACTIVA’s design evokes a carefree energy, perfect for a young woman stepping confidently into her own. It feels both rooted and contemporary—respectful of tradition yet uninhibited in its expression. It’s easy to imagine this piece styled in various ways: worn with heels for a casual yet polished look, or paired with sneakers and a denim jacket for something more relaxed. The beauty of ACTIVA lies in its versatility and ease.

Still, the design holds room for further exploration. A midi or full-length version could offer more elegance for formal occasions, while experimenting with a belted waistline might add more structure for wearers who prefer definition. Adding subtle embellishments—like beaded trims or lace accents—could also elevate the garment for festive settings. Regardless, its current form already tells a powerful story of youthful exuberance and heritage appreciation.

Dhven Touch continues to carve a distinctive identity within African fashion, and ACTIVA stands as a testament to that creative journey. With this piece, Oluwadamilola doesn’t just dress the African woman—she celebrates her.
