Suffering for beauty is so last season. Celebrity stylesetters are donning breezy caftans for an unexpected—and comfortable!—evening look. Debra Messing wore an elegant caftan by Naeem Khan to a recent awards show. "My inspiration for this dress was the Czars from 19th century Russia," says Khan. "It's an easy silhouette with hand embroidery." Messing gave the gown extra edge by wearing it back to front. Says Khan, "I loved how she sexed the look up a notch."
