RFH: Kaftans - The Ultimate Summer Clothing Item?
For this Recreate Fashion History Challenge, Sarah took on the gorgeous Sharon Tate, channeling a shot from 1968 by Alan Pappe. Sharon’s kaftan was by Thea Porter - a fashion designer who famously brought Middle Eastern inspired designs to England & America in the 1960s. Among the first to rock Thea’s kaftans were Sharon, Elizabeth Taylor, Lauren Bacall, Bianca Jagger, Princess Margaret….so this truly is fashion history!
