Styling a kaftan is an art of balancing its voluminous, fluid silhouette with intentional accessories to suit any Australian summer occasion.

Daytime and Casual Chic
For a relaxed day at the beach or a casual brunch, prioritize comfort by letting the fabric flow naturally.

Footwear: Pair short or knee-length kaftans with flat leather sandals, waterproof slides, or even white sneakers for a modern, urban edge.

Accessories: Complete the look with a wide-brimmed straw hat, oversized sunglasses, and a woven tote bag.

Layering: Shorter styles can be layered over denim shorts or skinny jeans for extra versatility.

Evening and Formal Elegance
To transition to an upscale dinner or festive event, use structure to elevate the look.

Defining the Waist: Use a sleek leather or metallic belt at your natural waist to create a more defined, hourglass silhouette.

Elevated Footwear: Swap flats for strappy heels or wedges to instantly elongate the frame and add a touch of Pure Luxury.

Jewelry: Opt for statement pieces like chandelier earrings or a bold cuff, but keep the balance—if the kaftan is heavily embellished, choose simpler jewelry.

Pro Styling Tips
Petite Frames: Choose shorter lengths (above or at the knee) and V-necklines to avoid being overwhelmed by fabric.

Evening Fabrics: Select 100% silk or satin-silk blends, as their natural radiance catches the light beautifully for night events.
