African Print Cropped Jacket | Zivara
A beautifully structured jacket can make even the simplest outfit feel special. Designed in deep navy Ankara fabric with striking red and golden floral motifs, this African print cropped jacket combines expressive colour with distinctive tailoring.
Crafted from 100% cotton Ankara wax print, the jacket features defined shoulders, elegant long sleeves and overlapping front panels that create an interesting shape across the upper body. The cropped length sits neatly at the waist, making it particularly versatile with corsets, bustier tops, fitted skirts and high waisted trousers.
Wear the jacket open for a relaxed look, closed for a more structured appearance or draped elegantly over the shoulders for evening occasions. The richness of the floral print makes it a beautiful statement piece for weddings, celebrations and occasions when you want something different.
This listing is for the African print cropped jacket only. The tops, trousers and other garments pictured are not included.
Create different outfits with these complementary pieces, all available to purchase separately.
Zivara African Print Bustier Top
Pair the jacket with the matching print bustier for a beautifully structured look. Wear the jacket open to reveal the bustier underneath, or remove it for a different silhouette.
Zivara African Print Corset Top
For another approach to corset styling, combine the cropped jacket with the Zivara corset top. The fitted bodice and structured jacket create an elegant outfit for dinners, celebrations and special occasions.
As styled in our photographs, the flowing navy trousers complement the jacket's deep navy background. Their generous wide leg silhouette creates a beautiful contrast against the shorter, tailored jacket.

One of the pleasures of a cropped jacket is how easily it can change the appearance of an outfit. The shorter length gives definition to the waist without hiding the clothing underneath, making it particularly useful when styling structured tops and flowing separates.
For weddings and evening celebrations, wear this floral Ankara jacket with the Velani navy trousers and elegant heels. The plain navy fabric allows the red and gold floral pattern to stand out, while the wide trousers bring beautiful movement to the outfit.
If you prefer a more fitted silhouette, the Zivara bustier or corset top offers another styling possibility. Layering a cropped jacket over a structured bodice creates an interesting balance between the neckline, shoulders and defined waist.
For church, dinners or smart daytime occasions, try the jacket with a simple top and a fitted pencil skirt. The structured shoulders and overlapping front panels give the outfit a tailored appearance without needing elaborate accessories.
The deep navy background makes this African print jacket particularly easy to coordinate with other wardrobe pieces, while the floral pattern brings colour and personality to the finished look.
