- Sample review before bulk production with project-based quotation support
Silk Kaftan Styles and Silhouettes
Choose the garment direction that fits your collection, customer and sales channel. The final cut is reviewed with the selected fabric, measurements and finishing details.
Long Silk Kaftans
A full-length silhouette creates a flowing resort, occasionwear or lounge direction. Confirm finished length, volume, sleeve shape and the way the garment will be packed.
Short Silk Kaftans
A shorter length can work as a light resort layer, relaxed dress or swim cover-up. Share the target length, hem shape and intended coverage for sampling.
Printed Resort Kaftans
All-over, border or placement artwork can give a kaftan a clear collection identity. Review repeat scale and how the print crosses seams, sleeves and hems.
Custom Artwork Kaftans
Start from your own artwork, moodboard or design sketch. The placement plan is checked against the pattern pieces before a sample is approved.
Flowing Cover-Ups
Loose, open or belted formats can be developed for beach, resort, travel and poolside collections. Confirm the opening, belt, sleeve and coverage direction.
Custom Silhouettes
When a standard kaftan does not fit the range, send a sketch, tech pack or reference garment so proportion, neckline and detail placement can be reviewed together.
Silk Fabrics, Weight and Drape
Fabric selection changes shine, opacity, movement, print appearance and cost position. Review the swatch with the actual silhouette and intended use rather than specifying fabric in isolation.
Silk Satin
A smooth, lustrous direction for polished kaftans, occasionwear, resort edits and premium gifting. Confirm weight, opacity, surface shine and drape on the sample.
Silk Chiffon
A lightweight, sheer direction for airy layers and flowing cover-ups. Confirm lining, coverage, seam handling and print behaviour for the chosen design.
Silk Georgette
A textured crepe direction with soft movement and more surface definition. Review weight, transparency, print clarity and the finished fall of the garment.
Silk Twill and Crepe
A more defined hand can give the kaftan added body and a different visual character. Check the relationship between weave, fit, gathers, seams and drape.
| Fabric direction | Surface and movement | Good starting point | Buyer checks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Silk satin | Smooth, fluid and lustrous | Polished kaftans, resortwear and gifting | Shine, opacity, weight, drape and care |
| Silk chiffon | Light, sheer and airy | Cover-ups, overlays and flowing layers | Transparency, lining, seams and print-through |
| Silk georgette | Textured crepe surface with soft movement | Flowing dresses and relaxed kaftans | Texture, weight, opacity and print clarity |
| Silk twill / crepe | More defined hand and body | Structured or detailed silhouettes | Weave, fit, seams, drape and finishing |
Printing, Colour and Artwork Placement
The artwork route should fit the fabric, pattern pieces, coverage, colour direction and quantity. Review the design at the garment level before bulk production.
All-Over and Repeat Prints
Build a repeat pattern around the usable fabric width and the finished garment. Confirm scale, repeat, bleed and how the motif moves across the front, back and sleeves.
Border and Placement Artwork
A border, panel or focused motif can guide the eye and create a stronger silhouette. Share the pattern or placement guide so the design lands on the intended area.
Solid and Contrast Colour
A solid shade creates a controlled core range, while contrast panels, cuffs, belts or edging can add a more defined collection direction.
Embroidery and Brand Marks
Add a monogram, motif or logo where the fabric and stitch density are suitable. Confirm size, location, thread colour and the sample appearance before approval.
Artwork Files to Send
Provide vector or high-resolution artwork, colour references, repeat dimensions, placement notes and any safe-area requirements for collars, seams and hems.
Print Review Points
Check scale, registration, colour balance, coverage, print-through, motif direction and the effect of seams or folds on the finished garment.
Fit, Measurements and Pattern Development
A clear measurement set gives the sample a reliable starting point. We can review standard grading or custom dimensions around the target customer and intended fit.
| Fit area | Details to share |
|---|---|
| Overall proportion | Finished length, body width, side opening and desired ease |
| Neckline | V-neck, round, collar or another reference shape with finished depth |
| Sleeves and armholes | Sleeve length, opening, dropped shoulder or relaxed armhole direction |
| Waist and shaping | Straight, belted, gathered, panelled or relaxed construction |
| Size range | Size chart, grade rules, fit model notes and measurement tolerances |
What helps us sample accurately
- A sketch, tech pack or reference garment
- Finished measurements and size breakdown
- Fabric preference and target hand feel
- Artwork placement, logo position and trim direction
Where the fit is not fully defined, send the target customer, intended use and a reference style. The sample can then be reviewed for proportion, movement, coverage and finishing.
Necklines, Sleeves and Finishing Details
Small construction decisions change the way a silk kaftan looks, moves and is presented. Confirm them with the fabric, artwork and size direction.
Neckline Direction
Choose a V-neck, round neckline, collar or another shape that fits the collection. Share finished depth, facing, binding and any opening or closure detail.
Sleeves and Openings
Set sleeve length, width, cuff or open side construction around the intended coverage and movement. Review the opening on the sample rather than by sketch alone.
Belts and Trims
A belt, contrast binding, piping or edge finish can change the styling and packing method. Confirm dimensions, colour and whether the detail is supplied with every SKU.
Hems and Seams
Review hem treatment, seam placement, side slits, gathers and the way the artwork meets each join. The finishing route should suit the selected silk.
Care and Composition
Provide the required fibre declaration, care wording and market labelling details for review. Final wording should match the approved material and product configuration.
Reference-Led Development
A reference garment is useful for proportion and construction direction, but the final material, measurements and finish are confirmed through the project sample.
Private Label Silk Kaftans and Packaging
Build the garment and its retail presentation as one brief so labels, folding, protection and the final SKU information work together.
Brand and Care Labels
Add brand labels, size labels, care instructions and composition information where required for the market and product configuration.
Hangtags and Inserts
Use hangtags or insert cards for product stories, care guidance, collection details or gift presentation without overloading the garment.
Pouches, Bags and Boxes
Choose practical or gift-ready packing around the kaftan volume, folding method, protection needs and selling channel.
SKU and Carton Details
Coordinate colour names, size labels, barcodes, SKU information, folding, individual packing and outer carton marks with the distribution plan.
Share the collection architecture early if colours, sizes, artwork or packaging differ by SKU. It helps the quotation and sample review reflect the real assortment.
Sampling, MOQ and Production Planning
Tell us the style, fabric, size split, artwork and target quantity. MOQ, sample scope, production schedule and packing conditions are confirmed for the exact program.
From brief to bulk order
| Stage | Buyer checkpoint |
|---|---|
| 1. Share the brief | Send the design reference, measurements, artwork, fabric direction and target quantity. |

| 3. Approve the sample | Check drape, fit, coverage, colour, artwork placement and finishing. |
