The Juniper

The Juniper print captures the jewel-toned Cappadocia skyline at its most electric — hot air balloons, neon pink gradient, houndstooth border. It's the print that photographs beautifully and marks you as a woman with genuine taste.

The Considered Piece

Silk, Trompe l'Oeil Beads, Golden Studs

The Sari Box Kaftan — silk, trompe l'oeil beads, golden studs — is the single most considered piece in the collection. For a cliffside ceremony in Cabo or a beachfront reception in Jamaica, this is the piece that makes an entrance and leaves a lasting memory.

Frequently Asked

What should I wear to a resort wedding?

A resort wedding calls for considered, occasion-appropriate resort wear — flowing, polished, and celebratory. Jewel-toned prints, goddess kaftans, and printed shirt dresses are perfect. Avoid all white and anything too casual.

What should I wear to a beach wedding?

A flowing silhouette in a fabric that handles heat and sea breezes beautifully. A goddess kaftan or printed shirt dress in a jewel tone is ideal — considered enough for a ceremony, comfortable enough for a reception on the sand.

Can I wear a kaftan to a wedding?

A luxury kaftan is entirely appropriate for a resort, beach, or destination wedding. The key is fabric and print: a silk or georgette kaftan in a distinctive jewel-toned print reads as intentional luxury, not poolside casual.

What colors are appropriate for a resort wedding guest?

Jewel tones, warm earth tones, and bold prints are all appropriate. Always avoid white, ivory, and cream, which are reserved for the bride.

What should I wear to a destination wedding in Mexico?

A flowing, heat-appropriate silhouette in a print that feels celebratory without being overdressed. Jewel tones photograph beautifully against Mexico's white sand and turquoise water.

What shoes work best for beach weddings?

Flat strappy sandals are the practical and elegant choice — they work on sand, grass, and poolside terrace equally well. Avoid stilettos, which will sink into sand or grass.

What should women over 40 wear to a resort wedding?

A flowing goddess kaftan in a jewel tone is universally flattering, requires no alterations, and reads as intentional luxury rather than trying too hard.
