Stunning 2017 Valentino by Pierpaolo Piccioli Minimalist Red Cady Caftan Dress designer-helena-barbieri The waist nips under that

The waist nips under that and the skirt falls to the floor with yards and yards of fabric

The color of this dress is outstanding and exceedingly rare to find on a twenties piece

Or leave this off completely and wear it full and easy

Besides his appointment as a dressmaker for the Royal Family he also had a loyal following with Hollywood starlets and socialites

That draped panel is very full and I love how it drapes over the sleeve on that side

Stunning 2017 Valentino by Pierpaolo Piccioli Minimalist Red Cady Caftan Dress designer-helena-barbieri The waist nips under thatThis is one of Valentino's silk cady caftan dresses that he does so beautifully. Over the course of his time at Valentino he has done several variations of these dresses and each is beautiful. Queen Maxima of the Netherland owns what looks to be the near twin to this one and it is one that she truly loves because she has worn it on three separate occasions. The first in 2017, which is how I dated this one, again in 2018 and then most recently in 2022.
