1970s Adini Indian Cotton Purple and Gold Hand Painted Kaftan Maxi, 38in Bust

These Indian cotton dresses are so sought after, and you can see why! From the 1970s by the famous label Adini, this has an eye-catching all over floral design with a large paisley motif, with dark purple accents to pick out the deepest hue. The little additions of the hand painted gold paint across the whole of the dress really shows the craftsmanship of these pieces, and is so charming. The full sleeves and loose skirt are perfect for hot weather as it keep you covered but the whisper thin cotton ensures you stay cool. And being a purple maxi, it makes this a more rare piece. Although the material is very fine, Indian cotton is made with the highest quality as you can see considering it is in near perfect condition over 30 years later!
