Kaftans

A kaftan is a breezy, tunic-like dress. The difference is that a kaftan is longer and has no definable sleeves. The kaftan lends itself perfectly to wearing over your bikini or swimming costume. But you can also wear a women's kaftan as a dress. Paired with beautiful wedges or summer sandals, you will feel beautiful and elegant. Plus, a kaftan dress takes up very little space in your suitcase. So pack it up and take it on your sun holiday!

Different kaftan lengths

Kaftans come in many different lengths. There is the short kaftan, which usually falls just above the knee. This is often worn as beachwear or as a light dress for home. The long kaftan falls to the ankles and can be worn as formal wear, or for a special occasion. There is also the asymmetric kaftan. This is a kaftan where the hem falls at different lengths. This gives a modern twist to the traditional kaftan and is suitable for both casual and formal occasions!

The kaftan is part of North African and Middle Eastern costume. In the 1960s, the garment was noticed by Emilio Pucci, a clothing designer. He included his own version of the kaftan in his collection. This is what made the kaftan so popular. Nowadays, we occasionally see our own Queen Máxima in a stylish kaftan. In addition, the kaftan is tipped as the dress for this summer.
