When you talk about flowy, easy-fitting clothing, a kaftan cannot be far off the list. In fact, the coveted cultural garment also nails the style game with its flair and exquisiteness. Whether it is a vibrant, traditional kaftan, one that is a right mix of classic and elegant, or a funky and sassy one, it is hard to complain about having one too many kaftans.

As we gradually go back to the pre-COVID routine, it is about time to start swapping the at-home clothing with dressy and chic outfits. Given that a kaftan can be well-paired with almost any mood or occasion, be it a beach party, a luncheon with your girlfriends, a romantic dinner, a shopping spree, or a resort holiday, we have compiled an eclectic list of kaftans to help bring your original style game back.

For luncheon

Pick a silky or satin kaftan with interesting prints for your lunch date. You can pick unique patterns, contrasting print hues, unconventional cuts and natural flair to lend a refreshing touch to your look without compromising on the comfort factor.

Occasion wear

Incorporate Indian craftsmanship, diverse colours and modern-day sensibilities to create prêt excellence. The intricate designs, wide range of cuts and hand-embroidery further induce a festive vibe into the ensembles, making them the right choice for traditional wear or a festive occasion. Go with a red kaftan with thigh-high slits and voila, it is surely going to raise your hotness quotient.

Date night

The flowy yet well-fitted silhouettes, along with the soft designs, make the kaftans a visual treat. Boasting of exclusivity, these kaftans make a great choice for getting that extra attention on a date night.
