Shortening a kaftan is a deliberate choice. The nude and silver Essyra short kaftan fully embraces it: a straight cut that ends where the cocktail dress begins, puff sleeves that add volume, and this nude-and-silver duo that catches the light with carefully considered subtlety.
Who is this nude and silver short kaftan for?
For those who want Moroccan elements—the elegance, the structure, the craftsmanship—in a format that can also be worn after the ceremony. A civil wedding, an intimate engagement party, or a formal evening: Essyra works wherever a long takchita would be too much. The puff sleeves balance the straight line of the cut and are enough to dress up the silhouette without accessories.
As for the color, nude flatters most complexions, while silver brightens the overall look in subtle touches, without ever becoming overly shiny. The straight cut falls naturally; if you are hesitating between two sizes, the size guide will help you choose the most flattering fit.
In summary:
- Short, straight cut with puff sleeves
- Colors: nude and silver
- Occasions: civil weddings, engagements, formal evenings
- Care: preferably take it to a dry cleaner to preserve the finishes
