PRODUCT DETAILS
A sleek cover-up for warmer days. This minimalist kaftan dress pattern features a relaxed silhouette and makes the perfect poolside piece. It has a V-neckline at both the front and back, a box pleat at the back, and slanted pockets between the front panels.
The box pleat can be omitted if you prefer a narrower kaftan (as shown in the blue version). We’ll show you how in TAL Sewing Journal.

Size S fits body sizes XS–L, and Size XL fits body sizes XL–3XL.
Models are 170 cm tall and wearing size S.
