A Kaftan For All Seasons
Throughout history the kaftan has primarily been worn by cultures that live in areas that benefit from a lot of sunshine and higher temperatures all year round. However, since the introduction of kaftans into the UK fashion market designers, manufacturers and retailers alike are beginning to understand that the evolution of the kaftan means that they can be part of UK ranges and wardrobes all year round whatever the weather.
This change in attitude could be put down to the emergence and the consumer embrace of modern kaftan tops, as apposed to the more traditional full length style. These advances in design mean that the kaftan can be as popular and as versatile as modern tunics and any other ladies’ tops and dresses, thus enabling the kaftan to be worn on a variety of occasions and can become a fashionable element of a number of different outfits and looks.
