Fabric & Care
Black maxi length silk kaftan named Rio by Lindsey Brown resort wear is a beautiful new black semi sheer silk maxi kaftan perfect for your next luxury holiday. Matt black silk is contrasted with a variety of small to large black disc sequins that decorate the neckline and cuffs. Taking inspiration from our signature luxury silk kaftans our Manhattan and Acapulco silk resort wear, the Rio maxi kaftan is a highly requested addition to our collection, as we have created a maxi length of silk kaftan due to popular requests from ladies wanting a beautiful full length black silk maxi kaftan.
Rio maxi length black silk kaftan ties with a bow at the back of the neck that allow the neckline to be drawn closer or styled loose. The back is also a v neckline and can be drawn in to lift the neckline and tied in a bow. The deep v neckline and deep v back is designed to flatter many dress sizes as the shoulders can be drawn in for both petite and larger sizes as the back has fine black silk ties, decorated with a crystal bead that can be tied in a bow and hangs down at the back. The v-back sits just above the swimwear or bra line. The length of the silk maxi kaftan dress is 130cm from shoulder to hem. We have added a side split of 30cm, approximately 12inches on either side making it easier to walk in, which allows the body of the skirt to flow and sway. The hemline is left plain so you can alter to your required length and fit. You can also wear this silk maxi kaftan as a dress. One size truly fits many sizes as the waistband is softly elasticated, so the body drapes beautifully.
This black maxi length silk kaftan is made of 100% silk georgette with is a very durable and matt silk fabric. Natural breathable fabrics are a must for warm holidays and silk georgette fabric is a perfect choice for our silk kaftans. Silk georgette can be recognised with it’s smooth matt feel which ensures a durable strong fabric and when hand tie dyed or dyed in vibrant shades it drapes beautifully and feels fabulous to wear. Read more about why silk georgette is a great choice of fabric for resort wear here.
We have styled this beautiful silk kaftan dress over a black bikini to show that the black is semi sheer as the black bikini stands out against the model’s skin tone. Daytime, you can of course wear any colour swimwear under this black silk maxi kaftan dress. For sun downer cocktails and drinks, changed into a high waisted black bikini or black swimsuit. For a resort wear beach party, you can wear over a black slip dress and wear for a resort wear al fresco party in Barbados or a resort wear beach party in Thailand. The black discs are flat sequins that are hand sewn around the neckline, they gently glimmer in the sunshine. You can wear with the jewellery colour of your choice as the matt black is a neutral tone, which would look fabulous for an evening soiree when adorned with statement earrings or bracelets in silver, gold or pewter jewellery. Rio is an original design by Lindsey Brown silk resort wear.
