FAQ

What size are these?

Every piece is one size, cut loose on purpose, and it fits US 4 to US 16 comfortably.

Long kaftans measure 137 cm / 54 in from shoulder to hem, and 152 cm / 60 in all the way around the chest, which is 76 cm / 30 in flat across. Short kaftans sit at or just above the knee with the same chest measurement. Everything is measured on the garment lying flat, not on the body, so allow one to two centimetres.

The easiest check: lay a dress you already love flat, measure its width from edge to edge, and compare it to 76 cm.

What is the fabric?

A lightweight woven fabric with a soft drape and no stretch. It moves in wind, does not cling, and dries quickly after a day at the pool.

How do I care for it?

Hand wash cold, hang to dry, cool iron. On pieces with gold trim or embroidery, do not iron over the trim.

How long does shipping take?

Orders leave within one to two business days. Shipping is free on orders over $75.

Can I return it?
