Stitched Sateen Silk Turkish Nilufer Kaftan in Marigold Yellow

A marigold yellow sateen silk kaftan in our Turkish Nilufer print — an all-over Penç motif drawn from the decorative arts of the Ottoman court. Tessellating florals in pink, orange and turquoise spread across a warm yellow ground, the V-neck drawing in at the waist with a tie finished in a gold-disc and tassel latkan. The Penç is one of the classic Ottoman motifs, taken from natural plant forms and drawn as a flower seen from above — its petals named in sequence from yek berk to şeş berk. Printed here on soft-lustre sateen silk, the motif carries that centuries-old design language into an easy, fluid kaftan. Suited to resort evenings, mehndi and haldi mornings, brunches and festive at-homes — wear loose or drawn in at the waist.
