About this piece

Refresh your wardrobe in this rich, tropical tribute to Brazil’s lush landscape - Brasilia. Crafted from a silk-like fabric made from recycled plastic bottles, this kaftan gracefully drapes for a flattering silhouette.

Perfect over swimwear, a beach cover-up, or elevate it with accessories and heels for a night out. Fabric-covered buttons and a clasp ensure modesty and adjustability, while side seam pockets add practicality. Wear it loose for a flowing look or use the adjustable drawstring for a more contoured fit.

Style it solo, or as a cover-up with the Brasilia Reversible Bikini Wrap Top and Bikini Bottom.

Some sizes of this style are on pre-order. If you have purchased a size on pre-order, your order will be sent when the item becomes available, in late November. Should you require any items sooner, please reach out to our team.

Fabric

Silky and lightweight, this breathable matte fabric is made using recycled plastic bottles and has a soft drop for effortless styling. Texture is similar to a soft, matte silk.

Size & Fit

Flexible sizing, one size fits multiple. We do recommend your usual size. Fabric-covered buttons and clasp for bust modesty and adjustability. View our size chart here.

Perfect for chilling poolside

I love this print so was excited to add this to my existing set (bathers top and bottom + bucket hat).

Nice and flowy with mostly good coverage, although I might add another fastening point a little higher up on the bust, to make it a more versatile choice for me.

The most flattering dress!!

I love this dress so much. It's super flattering, the fit is adjustable and it's so comfortable, especially for a hot climate. And it has pockets - big tick! Thinking about ordering it in another colour, it's that good.

I have worn this a few times now and received compliments on how lovely it looks. It is so comfortable and light. I love it so much I'm thinking of buying another one in a different print.

All Round Lovely

Great print and easy to wear, albeit expensive for a kaftan. I would have liked the kaftan to be a few centimeters longer.

I ordered the Black Kaftan dress, as I already have 2 others. I love the way they feel on and the need to not iron is great. Able to dress them up and down.

I have 2 bikini sets, one wrap suit , 3 kaftan dresses and the black multiway dress. I love all the pieces and get many compliments when wearing them.
