Vintage Fashionistas Get Chic In Caftans

imageIt shouldn’t be hard to believe that caftans originated back in 14th-century Persia as garments for men. After all, they’re super comfy and men tend to value comfort over fashion. You don’t see men teetering along on four-inch heels or squeezing themselves into vise-like undergarments. And while the identity of the first female to appropriate a caftan for herself is unknown, women everywhere should cheer for her courage to step outside the fashion box. Now commonly chosen as beach cover-ups or attire for pool parties, you shouldn’t overlook the power of a caftan for an elegant evening, too. Try one with a few chunky bracelets, flat jeweled sandals, or a head scarf to add a bohemian feel. Click the slideshow to see a chic collection of vintage caftans that pack a powerful fashion punch.
