For maternity empire waist dresses are very flattering. A lot of customers sent me requests to make them empire waist kaftan. Instead of keeping the same style as my other kaftans and just raising the drawstring up, I thought of making a new pattern and made this one with butterfly sleeves and gave it an elastic waistline rather than a drawstring. I also added buttons in front on this one so that you can use it later for nursing as well. This will be very flattering on both small framed ladies as well as plus sized ones. As this has tons of gathers which will open up so will be a perfect maternity wear for pregnant ladies as well. Also the best part with such dresses is that they don't loose shape so you can easily wear it after maternity. I made this Kaftan dress from a beautiful Mint Flowers on Shrubs 100% mulmul cotton. But I have the same fabric available in many other colors so during checkout just choose the color you want this dress in. The color swatches are shown in the last pic. If you want the same one as pictured, just select the "Same as Picture" option in the "colors" variation during checkout. Mulmul is a very fine variety of cotton which is extremely soft and it gets softer with every wash. It is so free flowing, that it will make you feel as if you aren't wearing anything at all ;) The beauty of the Kaftans is they will fit everyone so no need to worry about the size et all. All my Kaftans have deep necks(11-12 inches) so will fit all head sizes. Although it is one size fits most item but for a better fit, I will also need the approximate sizes. Below is the size guide, USUK/AU SmallSize 0 - 4Size 6 - 8 Medium....Size 6 - 8Size 10 - 12... LargeSize 10 - 12Size 14 - 16...

You will be asked your height and length preference during checkout. Please note there might be slight color variation due to lighting and all. Delivery time: I ship it by express and you will get it within a week. Let me know if you have any questions.
