Style tip for the day: Natural makeup, tiny accessories and sandals are the best companions for a day look in kaftan. From early brunches to visit to sunday flea markets, this early day look covers it all.

Style tip for the night: The night look in a kaftan demands more than subtlety. Heels, belts and bling accessories can up your kaftan game from 1 to 10 in a single go. A kaftan with embroidery or embellishments make the styling flow much more smoothly.

Style tip for a boho look: Boho chic look has made several rounds on runways and it never ceases to impress the onlookers. A kaftan is the epitome of boho fashion. Floral and tropical prints add the maximum weightage to a boho look and when paired with oxidised jewellery, it does wonders for the look.

Style tip for a chic look: If you wish to keep your look chic and muted, you might want to stick to amuted or pastel tone kaftan. Go easy on the accessories and do not over do the makeup.

As the masses have adjusted to a routine of work from home, their clothing preferences switched as well. Kaftans appear as a reliable option to break the monotony of the pyjamas and make the wearer feel dressy at the same time. What’s more? It remains comfortable all the while. Due to their availability in easy to source and produce fabrics such as cotton, kaftans are durable and last longer as well.
