Tashkent Black Ikat Italian Silk Maxi Kaftan

Our Tashkent Black Ikat Italian Silk Maxi Kaftan is a bold fusion of Silk Road history, contemporary sophistication, and the unmatched luxury of Italian silk. Crafted from the finest silk crepe, it drapes with effortless elegance, light, fluid, and luminous with every step. This couture-quality fabric gives the kaftan its exquisite movement, turning even the most dramatic prints into wearable art.

The pattern, designed exclusively for Pax Philomena for our founder Jean Marie, is inspired by the ancient ikat traditions of Central Asia. Its striking geometric motifs, rendered in cream, turquoise, and fiery coral, sit against a deep black ground, creating a rhythmic symmetry reminiscent of historic Uzbek textiles. The name Tashkent honors the capital of Uzbekistan, a legendary crossroads on the Silk Road where cultures, merchants, and artisans converged for centuries. Tashkent has long been a center for bold, expressive ikat weaving, with patterns believed to symbolize abundance, protection, and prosperity. This design carries that lineage forward, reimagining it with the refined artistry of Italian textile craftsmanship.

The silhouette of this maxi kaftan amplifies its presence: flowing sleeves, a luxurious full length, and an adjustable drawstring that allows you to create the perfect shape. Wear it cinched at the waist for a sculpted, dramatic profile or leave it loose for a sweeping, ethereal effect. Pair it with sandals for relaxed resort elegance, statement jewelry for evening glamour, or even barefoot on holiday for true bohemian luxury. Its versatility makes it the ultimate travel companion and an unforgettable statement piece for every season.

With its exclusive pattern, rich cultural inspiration, and sumptuous Italian silk, the Tashkent Black Ikat Italian Silk Maxi Kaftan Dress is more than a garment, it is a celebration of heritage, artistry, and timeless style. A truly collectible piece you will treasure for years to come.
