Dark olive satin, exaggerated volume, strapless, gathered throughout — the Desirée Iyama Kyriake is architectural fashion dressing at its most compelling.

The Kyriake by Desirée Iyama is the same brand behind the Pansy Dress — Nigerian-born design, ethically handcrafted in Lagos, architectural in construction, and completely unlike anything produced at scale. The Kyriake's silhouette is defined by exaggerated volume: a structured strapless bodice gives way to a dramatically gathered and draped skirt that commands physical space in a room. The dark olive satin has a rich, earthy depth — warm enough to photograph beautifully, distinctive enough to be immediately remembered. Fully lined for comfort and structure. A statement piece in the fullest sense.

At R769 against a R4,257 retail price, this is exceptional access to handcrafted African couture.

The details:

  • Luxurious dark olive satin with a subtle sheen

  • Exaggerated gathered volume throughout — dramatic form and movement
  • Draped detailing for added dimension

Size + Fit: Size 10 (UK 10), true to size. The structured bodice holds its shape precisely — accurate measurements matter. The voluminous gathered skirt creates its own space; allow for this when moving and sitting. Pair with simple strappy heels and minimal accessories.

How To Rent

Choose your rental start date on the calendar (the day you'd like your item to arrive) and select a 4-day, 8-day or 16-day rental. Bookings must be placed at least one day in advance, and weekends are greyed out as we don't deliver on Saturdays or Sundays. If your rental ends on a weekend or public holiday, we'll collect on the next working day.

How do delivery and returns work?

Delivery and return collection are both pre-booked for you, so there's nothing to arrange. Your rental arrives ready to wear, and when you're done, simply repack it in the same box, garment bag and hanger it came in, attach the return waybill, and have it ready for collection on your final rental day. See full shipping info here.

What's covered, and can I cancel?

Every rental includes snag & spill insurance, covering minor damage like small marks and broken zips (specialist stain removal is charged separately). Plans changed? Cancel 5 or more working days before your start date for a full refund, a reschedule, or a gift card. See our full Cancellation & Flexibility Policy for details.
