A caftan is a full-length, loosely-fitted garment with long or short sleeves worn by both men and women, primarily in the Eastern Mediterranean and North Africa. The caftan is similar to the djellaba gown worn by the people in the Middle East. It is often referred to as a “muumuu” when its style is completely different. Caftans have been used for different occasions, from just wearing around the home or a beach cover up to a maternity dress or even an evening dress.
A lot of women stay at home in a t-shirt and sweat pants. While this good and all, why not try something more comfortable? A caftan can be worn inside the home without a problem. Just slip one on and you can be relaxed and comfortable the whole day. It's almost as good as wearing a bathrobe around the house. The only difference is, you would have to change if you have company over. It can be a great dress-type wardrobe to wear when having a small party or gathering around the house.
Whether you’re going for a day on the beach or lounging around the poolside, caftans are the perfect cover-up to, well, cover up while still looking and feel great! With some great sunglasses, a hat, cute sandals and accessories, you'll sure to turn heads in your caftan for the summer. No more having to wear shorts and t-shirt and having to feel uncomfortable by the water. You'll even be able to just wear it out in the scorching sun without getting burned!
If you’re going out, you can throw on a pair of skinny jeans along with a tunic-style caftan top with a wide leather belt. You'll be ready to go out to any restaurant, bar, club or wherever you feel like and still turn heads. For those evening events, long flowing caftan gowns add the feminine chic you want while avoiding the muumuu look, or you can even show off your shape with a figure skimming custom-made caftan.
No matter what occasion you are going to, consider wearing your very own caftan. So go out and get one. Start feeling comfortable to everywhere you go.
