What Are Caftans? A Timeless Wardrobe Staple for Women Everywhere

Comfortable, stylish, and effortlessly chic — caftans (also spelled kaftans) are one of the most versatile pieces in fashion. Worn for centuries across the globe, today’s caftans for women have become a go-to for resort wear, loungewear, and elegant everyday looks. But what exactly is a caftan, and why should you have one (or several) in your closet?

What Is a Caftan?

A caftan is a loose-fitting garment with long, flowing fabric that typically falls to the ankle. Originating in the Middle East and North Africa, caftans were traditionally worn as robes or tunics. Over the years, fashion designers have reimagined this classic silhouette, transforming it into a stylish essential for modern women everywhere.

Today, you’ll find caftans in a wide variety of fabrics, prints, and cuts — from bold, tropical resort prints to minimalist and elegant caftans perfect for evening wear.

Why Women Love Caftans

Caftans have surged in popularity because they offer a unique combination of comfort, coverage, and confidence. Whether you’re getting ready for a beach day or a summer dinner party, caftans are the perfect option for easy, breathable style.
