Ona Top

A structured cropped top in handwoven cotton and silk thread, with dramatic puff sleeves and a full button-front fastening.

Silk thread runs through the handwoven cotton weave, catching light in movement - a quiet shimmer that reads differently indoors and out. The bodice is shaped and fitted through the waist, anchored by a full column of signature Igba gold buttons down the centre front. The sleeves are the statement: voluminous at the shoulder, short in length, balancing the fitted body. Handcrafted in Nigeria by Kíléntár's artisans.

STRUCTURE: The bodice is structured and fitted - it does not stretch. If you are between sizes, size up. Please check the measurements carefully before ordering.

OPACITY: This top has no lining. The handwoven fabric is the only layer.

FABRIC CARE: Dry clean recommended. Do not tumble dry. Iron on reverse at low heat only. Store hanging.

BEFORE YOU ORDER

Is the Ona Top true to size?
The bodice is structured, fitted through the waist, and does not stretch — so if you are between sizes, size up. Measurements are taken of the garment itself, laid flat, in inches. Compare them with your own against the size guide at kilentar.com/pages/size-chart before ordering.

Is the Ona Top lined?
No. The handwoven cotton and silk fabric is the only layer — there is no lining. The weave is the texture you see and the surface you feel, inside and out. If you would like guidance on what to wear underneath for your skin tone, contact us before ordering.

How do I care for the Ona Top?
Dry clean recommended. Never tumble dry. If you need to press it, iron on the reverse at low heat only - direct heat can damage the silk thread and the Igba gold buttons. Store the top hanging, with room around the sleeves so their volume is not crushed.

How long does it take to make the Ona Top?
Each Ona Top is handcrafted in Nigeria by Kíléntár's artisans, from cotton handwoven with silk thread. Please allow [LEAD TIME] for your piece to be made before dispatch. We ship to more than 15 countries worldwide, and shipping time is additional to the making period.

Does the Ona Top come in plus sizes?
Yes. The Ona Top is available in sizes UK 4–24 / US 0–20, cut to the same fitted design in every size. Because the bodice has no stretch, measure yourself against the size guide at kilentar.com/pages/size-chart, and size up if you fall between sizes.

KÍLÉNTÁR CARE GUIDE

Every Kíléntár piece is handcrafted - woven, dyed, beaded, or stitched by artisans across West Africa - and each material carries its own way of being kept. Cared for properly, these are pieces made to last and to be passed on. Below you'll find care guidance by material. Most of our garments combine two or more: where they do, always follow the gentlest instruction. The care line on each product page states the final word for that piece, and if you're ever unsure, write to us at hello@kilentar.com - we're happy to advise.

Handwoven cotton & silk thread (Faso Dan Fani)
Dry clean recommended. Do not tumble dry. Iron on reverse at low heat only, or steam. Store hanging to preserve the weave's structure.

Raffia (dyed fringe)
Steam only - never iron raffia directly; direct heat damages the dyed fibres. Hang to store and never fold the fringe layers. If fringe arrives compressed from shipping, hang for a few hours and steam gently.

Beadwork (glass, resin & metallic beads)
Dry clean only - do not hand wash. Store flat or hanging without compressing the beaded surface. Dress with care and keep away from sharp jewellery, zips, and bags that can snag threads.

Shells & cowries
Dry clean only. Store hanging on a padded hanger - shell-embellished pieces carry real weight. Avoid crushing under other garments; handle gently when dressing.

Vintage & deadstock lace
Hand wash cold or dry clean - beaded lace is dry clean only and should never touch water. Do not tumble dry. Steam rather than ironing lace directly. Store hanging or flat.

Chiffon
Dry clean. Steam on low to release creases. Store hanging.

Tulle, net & mesh
Dry clean recommended. Steam gently or iron on low heat. Hang to store.

Satin
Dry clean. Steam on low; avoid direct high heat, which marks the surface.

Silk & hand-dyed àdìrẹ
Dry clean only. Steam on low heat. Hand-dyed pieces should never be soaked - dye placements are unique to each garment. Store flat or on padded hangers.

Wool & stove-wool fringe
Dry clean only. Steam gently. Store folded or hanging with room - never compress fringe.

Tassels (cotton & shimmer)
Steam gently if tangled; never iron. Hang so tassels fall freely — do not fold. Finger-comb strands rather than brushing.

Sequins
Dry clean recommended. No iron contact at any heat. Store hanging with space around the garment.

Crepe
Dry clean. Steam on low heat.

Denim (rigid, with aso oke detail)
Dry clean only to protect vintage aso oke pockets. Steam lightly.

Tweed
Dry clean only. Steam on low heat; avoid pressure over boning channels where present.

Plissé (pleated)
Dry clean only - pleats are heat-set and washing relaxes them. Steam very gently; never press pleats or ruffles flat.

Gold hardware, Igba & Adinkra buttons
Keep direct heat away from buttons and plaques. No harsh cleaning products; wipe gently with a soft dry cloth.

Corsetry & boning
Steam gently; avoid pressing directly over boning. Store hanging or flat - never fold across the boned section.
