SUMMER
Valley women’s fashion looks for the summer
This Cannes Cotton Ikat Maxi Kaftan dress and the Nice Cotton Ikat Maxi Kaftan dress are perfect summer dresses. The fabric is completely handwoven with a combination of very fine cotton yarns, creating vibrant and beautiful colors. Ikat, meaning “to tie” or “to bind” in Indonesian, is an ancient dyeing technique involving the meticulous binding and dyeing of threads before weaving them into intricate patterns.

Best known for its kaftans, the Pax Philomena brand fuses rich, Indian block prints and Italian style to create beauty, color and comfort. Pax, Latin for “peace,” and Philomena, which means "daughter of light,” inspire this multi-cultural clothing line.
Jean Marie Clarke, founder of Pax Philomena, was born in Calcutta, India to Anglo-Indian parents, whose families had been living in India for five generations. She emigrated with her family to America at a young age as a British citizen and was raised in Phoenix.
