If you want a break from the tees, jeans and athleisure attire that have emerged as this period’s OOTDs (outfits of the day), slip into the effortless ease of chic and stylish caftans.

A traditional garment of the Middle East, caftans — which were made of luxurious silks and embellished with ornate beading — were worn by Ottoman sultans and Moroccan dignitaries of centuries past. The caftan was later introduced to Western society and adapted in the 1950s and ‘60s by leading couturiers such as Cristobal Balenciaga and Christian Dior as a new form of evening gown.
