Description

The Kaftan Dress pattern is a Scandinavian take on an iconic dress that is as versatile as it is stylish. This dress is perfect for a day at the beach paired with flip flops, or equally ideal for five o'clock cocktails when styled with your favourite heeled sandals.

It boasts raglan sleeves, an overlap V-neck that creates a pleat in the front, and practical in-seam pockets. The side slits add a touch of femininity and movement to the overall design, making it perfect for any occasion. With its effortless yet chic style, this dress is a wardrobe essential that you'll love to wear again and again.

Note from The Assembly Line:

“As some of you have found the facing of the Kaftan dress neckline really confusing, we have created a new front facing (that fits the original pattern) together with a description of the steps.” Click here.

Recommended fabric
