Stunning 2017 Valentino by Pierpaolo Piccioli Minimalist Red Cady Caftan Dress designer-helena-barbieri each edged with a ruffleThis is one of Valentino's silk cady caftan dresses that he does so beautifully. Over the course of his time at Valentino he has done several variations of these dresses and each is beautiful. Queen Maxima of the Netherland owns what looks to be the near twin to this one and it is one that she truly loves because she has worn it on three separate occasions. The first in 2017, which is how I dated this one, again in 2018 and then most recently in 2022.
