Kampala Fair

Top choice in Kampala


Selling gorgeous women's kitenge dresses in traditional patterns, separates, children's clothing and some batik pillows, this fair-trade boutique is a solid choice for keepsake clothing, with craftsmanship superior to that you'd find in the market and a treasure trove of colours and styles. If you are in town a few days they can even do alterations.
