We love the kaftan styling on John Paul Getty Jr. in this photo and with his wife Talitha on a rooftop in Marrakech in 1969 this is regarded as one of the most iconic photos of the couple. Talitha’s styling of vibrant coat, harem pants and white boots in front of that stunning skyline is enough to make us want to buy a ticket on the next plane out!

This fashion forward First Lady was certainly on trend in this mint green kaftan by Valentino in 1967 while visiting Cambodia. We love her classic beauty and she truly captures the elegance of the kaftan for the modern woman.

Paris Hilton is a Shahida Parides’ favorite customer and her Coachella looks are some of our favorites. This brightly colored long dress looks great with her accessories and these colors compliment all skin tones.

We love styling this Real Housewife and she looks chic and relaxed staring off into the sunset in our rainbow stripe piece. This best seller is great for vacations, or events held at home and Kyle’s simple styling makes sure that the dress is accentuating you!
