I guess it was the 80s when a kaftan was a laughable concept and I pretended I'd never worn one. thank you for rehabilitating them, referencing their history and celebrating their golden age, the 60s/early 70s. <br /><br />The (1749) Liotard is of Mary Gunning, Countess of Coventry. I can't find anything about her or her orientalist tendencies.

...DEAR LITTLE-<br /><br />Such an original post! Chicissima!<br /><br />The kaftans are great (caftan, kaftan...it's all good)...but it's the Liotard paintings that stopped me in my tracks.<br /><br />Liotard's scholarly devotion to the historical costumes, interiors, decoration, and even the wooden 'high' shoes that Turkish women wore in Hammams...is so uplifting.<br /><br />Thanks for insight into the history, the origins, and now the chics and chicettes of today.<br />Cheers, www.thestylesaloniste.comDiane Dorrans Saekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02259292681678952448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3498357134928699381.post-10585189934972306342009-07-29T12:27:27.573-04:002009-07-29T12:27:27.573-04:00Now I'm feeling blue that I don't have a c...Now I'm feeling blue that I don't have a caftan.

She wore Villager dresses and looked great- I perused the exotic Vogue looks-the 60's photographs still look current in fact and I think it is that they are wearing caftans, hair for the most part looking pretty good too. I have a couple I should show off- but I refuse to model.
