Talitha Getty - the vintage caftan icon




This iconic photo of Talitha Getty by Patrick Litchfield in the 1960's is so actual. Its bohemian luxe appeal is astonishing. Talitha Getty was YSL's muse and the late 60's fashion icon. She was hugely influenced by living in Marrakesh, she would often wear silk bejeweled traditional Moroccan dresses, full length embroidered caftans worn open over pants and traditional Moroccan slippers. Her look is particularly relevant right now, looking at the Spring Summer collections from the last 40 years through to Fall collections for 2010 I have seen a lot of middle eastern influence. Not to mention Nicole Richie, Rachel Zoe, Kate Moss and more that adopted the 70's boho luxe style.
