The Power of African Prints: Why Bold Women Choose Bold Fabric

African prints are more than fabric — they are identity, heartbeat, and heritage. Every pattern tells a story, connecting women to culture, history, and themselves.

At Panashe Designs, prints carry intention: some speak of hope, others of protection, beauty, or light. When I design with African prints, I choose what speaks, not just what looks good.

Every woman who wears a Panashe garment steps into her power — seen, strong, and unapologetically herself.

Many Zimbabwean names carry spiritual symbolism in Shona culture:

• Ruvimbo = Hope
• Runako = Beauty
• Ruzhowa = Protection
• Ruvheneko = Light

These meanings guide my design decisions — I don’t just create fabric; I create messages.
