Sakkas Batik Palm Tree Cap Sleeve Caftan Dress/Cover Up

I love everything about this dress, it's color, fit and style, very complementary. The cap sleeves are a beautiful sheer material with embroidering and splashes of the tan color. The neckline is very nice, the tan accents are the color of my skin which I think looks gorgeous. It's like a silk thread that outlines the designs. It's somewhat sheer which I love wearing around the house especially on hot days. I would put on underwear if I had company or going next door.Like all of these gauze type dresses, they need to be hand washed and line dried, which is quick and easy, the first wash always has extra color bleeding. The darker color of this dress was also staining to my sink and hands which cleaned up easily, I would suggest washing in a bucket outside for the first time.I have at least 6 of these gauze type Sakkas dresses and love them all, each is different in style and colors. I did have to return one, without any hassle, because it was too tight around the arm holes. I wear them as a house dress and feel very elegant in them. Problem for me is that they are so comfortable I dread to have to wear anything else!

I purchased this dress to wear in Hawaii on vacation and absolutely love it. It looks just like the photo. I wore it as a dress, not a beach cover-up, for which I recommend wearing a slip of some sort underneath.The dress has a perfect weight to it so it hangs beautifully and flows nicely when you walk - never felt like it was tangling around my legs. The stitching is nice. Upon close examination, the cap sleeves are made out of a slightly different material which matches nicely and adds a little something extra. I am 5'3, and the longest part of the dress came close to touching the ground in flat shoes...but not quite. The size is generous and should fit most anyone. I'm a size 12 and had lots of room. In fact, it was so comfortable I wanted to wear EVERY DAY! It is a hand wash item, and the color bled a lot when I washed it, but the dress didn't seem faded afterward. You will like this dress!!

I was afraid to order this dress, figuring it was probably junk at the price offered. But after reading the reviews decided to try it. Its beautiful! I am 5'2" and not exactly slim and have never worn this style of dress before so was afraid it would really make me look dumpy. Surprise! It is very flattering. The length is not quite to my ankles in the back, a little shorter in the front and even shorter at the sides so it doesn't look like a maxi dress. It flows over my figure and hides all the imperfections and actually makes me look thinner. I'm pretty busty and there's plenty of room, the arm holes are plenty big enough, in fact I'm going to take a small tuck under each arm to make it a little smaller so my bra and slip won't show.You will need to wear a slip underneath. I bought black so even though it's sheer it isn't extremely see-through.The flutter sleeves are very pretty and big enough for someone with big arms. I only gave it four stars because I haven't washed it yet. I don't know how it will hold up but I'm going to wash it in cold water on the delicate cycle and hang dry it.I love it so far. I'm over sixty and this dress is not too young looking. I think anyone of any age (or weight) could wear it.

I love the way this dress fits. I am a plus size. It hangs really flattering and is beautiful for dress or casual. I'm going to order more in different colors.

When the dress arrived the pockets were barely attached to the dress. Large gaping holes in the side of the dress where the pockets were supposed to be.

I am over 50 and don't like to show my arms, but I live in Texas so I need hot weather clothes. I grew up wearing floaty sundresses, but haven't for the last several years because only the sleeveless ones are made of cotton - and they show me "summer sweaters" or "shrugs" to wear with them. I have suggested where store buyers for Texas can stow their summer sweaters: California! Where it cools down at night!.Short story long, I discovered Sakkas last year and am absolutely thrilled. I wear sleeveless ones at home and to the beach / pool, and sleeved ones everywhere else. They have a shape, so you don't look like you're wearing a sack, and they swirl when you walk, so you feel pretty. I get compliments every time I wear one.They can be a bit thin, so I can wear only the darker-colored ones without a slip if I'm going somewhere nice. This red one is the most see-through one I wear in public. The drawbacks are: the embroidery can pull, so I recommend stitching any loose ends before you wear, or you can lose a whole area of stitching, and they aren't available with sleeves in more styles. But there are styles, I love them, and I can't recommend them strongly enough - if you don't live in my neighborhood so we don't look like twins!

Batik Palm Tree Cap Sleeve Caftan Dress. sometimes it seems to be listed as a cover up and sometimes it's not. when i bought it wasn't listed as a cover-up. the asymmetric bottom makes it look more slimming and it's one size fits all so you know it's going to be huge on some people and maybe tight on others. It's pretty and it's more fun and sophisticated than a muumuu. I had 2 problems: i ordered "chocolate" and all the tags on the dress and the bag the dress was in said "brown" and yet the dress was clearly purple. a nice purple but definitely not brown in anyway. also, it's pretty sheer. like evn in low light you'll be able to see through it so even if you're using it as a lounge about the house dress you'll need to wear something under if if anyone else is around.

Comfortable and thin to wear over shorts. Colorful and pretty.

Love, love this dress. Awesome look!

Pas de problème avec la « taille unique » malgré mon 48/50 EU : grâce à la coupe évasée c’est parfait ! Les manches dentelles sont très chouettes et couvrent bien le haut des bras tout en transparence. Longueur parfaite. Bonne tenue au lavage. Le rose des broderies est lumineux. Satisfaite de mon achat, je recommande.

Stoff, Stickerei, Passform sehr gut. Nach der ersten Handwäsche immer noch alles in Form und auch die Farben sind nicht ausgewaschen (obwohl beim Waschen viel Farbe abging). Eine neues Lieblingsstück! Bei 1,65 cm Körpergröße und 40 Konfektionsgröße ist die Länge vom Kaftan an der längsten Stelle knöchellang (maxi).

I'm a uk size 14, 5'7 and nine months pregnant and its still a tent :DI bought it deliberately to be oversized, I love baggy stuff and from the description it's not surprising it's very flowy - the thing that surprised me was the length. It's longer at the front and back than the sides but on me at five foot seven it goes down to almost ankle length front and back so it might be a little long on a petite person.Got lots of compliments though, it's a nice print and lovely comfy dress
