Description
"Mapambo" means adornment—and this sweatshirt is for the woman who wears her beauty like a crown of jewels. Designed for Black women who shine from the inside out, its adorned silhouette is a celebration of your grace.
A black profile silhouette crowned with pink, gold and violet flowers and draped in jewelled necklaces stands against a sunny yellow ground of tiny white and orange blossoms, finished with a golden-yellow rib at the neckline, cuffs and hem. Bright, joyful and full of glow.

Sisters Say It Best
You May Be Wondering...
Is Afropenda Black-owned?
Yes. Afropenda is proudly Black-owned. Founded by Lena — a proud Black woman in her 40s who built this brand because she was tired of settling after years of working in plus-size fashion.
What size should I get?
Lightweight has a regular fit and Heavyweight a looser fit with a drop shoulder. Sizes run XS to 5XL. Tap Size Chart next to the size options and compare the bust and length with a sweatshirt you already own that fits well.
Is it warm enough for fall and winter?
Yes. Choose Heavyweight for colder days — it is fleece-lined inside. Lightweight is a 300 g/m² pullover for mild days and easy layering. Tap Compare next to Fabric to see the difference.
What can I wear it with?
It is made to match a variety of bottoms. Wear it with jeans or casual pants for everyday outings, or layer it over a tee when the evenings turn cool.
Can I track my order?
Of course. Once your order ships, track it on our Tracking Page — enter your tracking number for the latest updates.
