I had no idea what a Kariza skirt was until I found one in a charity shop. I love silk (who doesn't) so always search for silk items ehen scouring the chazzas. So the purple patterned silk of this lovely vintage skirt caught my eye.
quick feel confirmed my hopes and there it was, a reversible, silk wrap skirt, all mine for £4.99. A good wash later and a bit of research and I have found it is made from recycled Indian sari silks. I am very pleased with my find.
On you tube there are lots videos of how to wear my Kariza different ways.

Kariza,
a Brazilian native raised in a world of color, costumes, and drums of
Carnival, her stage for a blossoming career. After attending college for
fashion design in Brazil she moved to the United States in 2000 and
made history with her world famous Kariza Wrap Skirts! Due to her
extensive creativity and vision, she was able to create a multi
functional concept by styling one piece of fabric with over 100
different ways to wear!
I love the Bohemian look of it!
