Kaftan Kurti: Relaxed Comfort with Ethnic Style
A kaftan kurti is loose, flowing and easy to wear. It combines the free-fall shape of a kaftan with the colours and prints of Indian ethnic wear, so you get a comfortable outfit that still looks put together. Our kaftan kurti collection is perfect for hot days, long travel, relaxed afternoons at home and casual outings.
Because the cut is free-flowing and does not cling to the body, a kaftan kurti is a good choice for all body types and for any time you want to feel at ease. It is also a popular choice during pregnancy and after delivery, when comfort matters most.

- Comfortable neckline: Often round, V-shaped or finished with a small tie.

Fabric Guide
Cotton is breathable and soft, making it a good choice for summer and daily wear. Rayon is light and smooth, with a lovely drape that suits kaftan shapes. Viscose has a silky feel and a flowy fall. For cooler days, choose a thicker cotton blend and wear it with leggings.
How to Style a Kaftan Kurti
A kaftan kurti is easy to style. For home or travel, wear it with leggings or simple pants. For a casual outing, add a belt at the waist to create shape. For a more ethnic look, pair it with churidar and a dupatta. Accessories such as silver jewellery, a cloth bag and flat sandals complete the look.
