Trend Watch: A Tribe of Their Own

Last week, three stylish celebrities stepped into the street looking like a tribe of their own.

Nicky Hilton, Beyoncé Knowles and Kim Kardashian were all spotted wearing printed dresses that are perfect for summer.

The girls all rocked one of this season's biggest trends--tribal prints. However, the styles were all dramatically different. From Nicky's electric ikat tank dress to Kim's Aztec-inspired floor-length maxi, the trend is clearly versatile.

It is no wonder that these celebrities are reaching for printed sundresses. The trend, which was seen on the runways of Anna Sui, L.A.M.B. and Diane von Furstenberg, draws inspiration from Africa, the Middle East and Mexico. It is no wonder then that these beautiful ikat and batik prints exude an exotic allure that will remind you of foreign lands.

One of Qi's top picks from the spring collection is our Tied to the Tribe Dress. Featuring a black and white ikat print, the Tied to the Tribe tank dress has a unique black tie detail. Its lightweight cotton and silk blend fabric makes this dress a breezy option for a hot, sticky summer day.

Kim Kardashian hit the streets looking modern and chic in a black and white printed dress and cropped black jacket. She accessorized the look with a black Chanel bag, a tribal-inspired necklace, and strappy lace up heels.
