I’ve been feeling a 70s caftan moment, and LOOK at all the gorgeous pattern inspiration I’ve unearthed. Am I crazy or can just about ANYONE work a caftan? If you are relying on that young, hot bod, make it sheer with a bikini (or nothing) on underneath –and if you’ve got a Dad bod, what a perfect way to give it some room to breath. I’m forecasting “The Summer of The Caftan” for Fire Island. Hey, Daniel Nardicio, how about adding to your famed Cherry Grove underwear parties – Saturday Night Caftan Fever, maybe? (You might need an afternoon sewing party too though.) Here’s some Butterick, Simplicity and Vogue pattern inspiration. If you aren’t feeling caftan, there re a couple of tunics, a few jumpsuits and some hot swimsuit sets too.
