Choosing between a short and a long kaftan comes down to where you will wear it and how you like to feel in it. Here is a simple guide.
Short kaftans
Our short kaftans are knee-length, around 39 inches. They are easy to move in and work well for beach days, brunch, casual outings and warm weather. They also pair well with sneakers, flat sandals or low heels.
Long kaftans
Our long kaftans are full length, around 54 to 57 inches, giving a graceful maxi-dress look. They suit travel, evening outings, festive occasions and anyone who prefers more coverage.
Which one if you are tall or petite?
Longer lengths look elegant on taller frames, but a belt helps on any height. If you are petite and want a longer look, pair it with a small heel. Short kaftans suit almost every height.
Fabric matters too
- Cotton: breathable and easy to care for, a good everyday and summer choice.
- Satin: smooth with a soft shine, great for evenings and dressier looks.
- Poly-silk: a graceful fall and a richer feel, popular for festive wear.
