Description
Bloom Flowers Printed V-neck Long Kaftan There is a particular ease that belongs to garments cut for long afternoons and unhurried evenings, and this kaftan carries that ease with quiet confidence. Printed in a bloom-flower motif that draws on the decorative floral vocabularies found across Indian textile traditions, from the garden-inspired buta patterns of Lucknow to the bold botanical prints of Rajasthan, the design feels both rooted and contemporary. The fabric is a smooth polyester weave, chosen for its resistance to creasing and its ability to hold printed colour with fidelity over repeated washes. The V-neckline lends a gentle elongation to the silhouette, while the full-length cut makes this a piece that moves generously with the body. Made to order, each kaftan is cut and finished individually, ensuring a considered fit rather than an off-the-shelf approximation. Wear it over slim trousers for a relaxed dinner at home, or belt it softly at the waist for a more composed evening look. Flat kolhapuri sandals in tan leather would complete the mood without competing with the print.

Behind this piece
The kaftan is one of the oldest garments in the world, tracing its lineage through the courts of Persia, the Ottoman empire, and the coastal trading towns of East Africa before finding a natural home in India's own vocabulary of relaxed, flowing dress. This version speaks a more contemporary language: bold floral print on fluid polyester, designed with the unhurried ease of resort living in mind. Made to order, each piece is cut and finished only when you choose it, which makes the act of wearing it a small, quiet act of intention.
How to style
Wear it as a standalone dress for an afternoon gathering on a sun-drenched terrace, cinched lightly at the waist with a thin tan leather belt. For an evening out, layer it open over wide-leg ivory palazzo trousers and add a pair of oxidised silver jhumkas from Rajasthan. On a beach holiday, pair it with flat Kolhapuri chappals in tan or nude and a single strand of wooden beads. The V-neck invites a delicate pendant necklace without overcrowding the neckline. Carry a wicker clutch for an easy, well-considered finish.
Fabric & care
Polyester holds its shape well but rewards gentle handling. Machine wash on a delicate cycle using cold water and a mild liquid detergent; avoid hot water, which can distort the print over time. Do not wring or twist. Tumble dry on the lowest heat setting or, preferably, hang to dry in shade away from direct sunlight, which causes colour to fade gradually. Iron on a low-heat synthetic setting if needed, using a pressing cloth to protect the printed surface. Store folded loosely or on a padded hanger to preserve the drape.
