Forget the trend that demands you to be strict and sharp. 2016 so far has been contrastingly different from the previous years, thanks to the popularity of kaftans and abaya dresses. According to popular women magazines, the season is all about staying cool, trendy and stylish with loose and dramatically colourful kaftans. That’s exactly why we picked romantic Bohemian as one segment that we think goes with every occasion.
Here is a 6-step guide to turn it on with gypsy-inspired kaftans.
Step 1: Shop for the occasion
Are you planning to wear the kaftans for any particular outing? Kaftan Online India trend has lovingly crossed over to formal collections now, but it does not mean you favour them over shirts and gowns. Perfect for casuals, especially when you have a windy destination to manage, Bohemian kaftans blend with the backdrop with ease. We don’t mind you trying a chic modish mini-kaftan paired with sexy denim short to your next Safari escapade.
Step 2: Flattering neckline
Hop onto the streets to find the kaftan with perfect neckline. Boat necks and V-necks are passé. Bold and fiery stylists prefer to go with asymmetrical scoops and off-shoulder poppy kaftans. They look stunning when adorned with leather belts. Chiffon kaftans with netted panels on the sides always work with every neckline you choose. Explore plunging necklines to experience wildness.
Step 3: Transparent kaftans are fun too
Give your wardrobe a transparent makeover. For those who love to show off their favourite tee and tops underneath the kaftan, can pick this ultra-modern fabric. A hot favourite in beach-themed party outings, transparent Romantic Bohemian kaftans can be worn over two-piece Hawaiian bikini or oriental Sukumizu or Mizugi.
Step 4: The return of Yellow
We are not talking about ordinary pale yellow shades, but hundreds of varieties coming from the spectrum close to yellow. With over 50 recognizable shades of yellow, each colour has a symbolic element related to Romantic Bohemian kaftan look. Our personal favourites have lined up kaftans in Apricot, Citrine, harvest gold, Mustard, Sunglow and even the sandy Old-gold.
For those looking for extra highlights, saffron and canary are other shades in yellow you must explore in 2016. Jonquil, we love the name just as much as the colour. Do try it!
Step 5: Metallic accents
Dainty gold jewellery in 2015, but in 2016 it is all about platinum and bronze. The accessories are getting bolder and sharper. Long necklaces with chunky accents and geometric bracelets pep up the kaftan look with their dazzling sheen. If you are sporting a kaftan with bold prints or solid colours, accessories will vary accordingly. However, always dress up for the occasion. Pearls and crystals rock the floor with their brilliance floating in air in sweet cocktail party.
Step 6: The perfume
Accentuate the whole idea of romance with Romany scents like Parfum Gypsy from Byredo, Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf or the sensuous Hypnotic Poison by Dior. Be it the star-studded embellished kaftans or backless maxi-length gown, they complement the theme of “Flow”.
