Thread: Lovely coverup caftans for 19$

While searching for nice coverups I found these!They are only 19$(some shorter are 14$) and many even include a matching headband scarf

I especially like these models:"Goddess"(in red),"Raquell","Sary","Queen Zhinga" and "Dita":

(...sadly Ashro don´t seem to ship to my country)

Oh no. I think I want one. Mine is too big and I look huge in it

Oh cool! I may have to get one....thanks for sharing!

Looking at those makes me wish I could wear a caftan all the time! I like the ones you mentioned, Emma-bessa, and also the Sunset. I thought the caftan dress was pretty too.

cool! :D

this place also has some nice-lookin' cheap ones :)

WOW thank you -- passing on to my students!

I think it´s so HARD to find nice and affordable coverups-if they shipped to Sweden I would probably buy 50 at the time..it´s not nice(I don´t like to see I mean)pros,semi pros and students running around in costume when not on stage...

And yes that Sunset...lurve it!

for what it's worth, i ordered one from here on the spur of the moment on Feb 10th (in the middle of the revolution in egypt -- didn't think -_-"), and have recieved an email notice saturday (feb. 12), that it had been shipped.
now to see if the postal service works, lol ^^ it's estimated 14-18 days before i get it (i chose the cheaper, slower shipping -- if you choose the faster shipping, you get a tracking number)
i'll let you know how it goes and the quality of the product...

I'm a caftan, galabaya, moo-moo, etc, addict.

The moment I get home after work, I usualy step into one of my collection. My husban joke about it saying it makes him feel like he living with the re-incarnation of Mrs. Roper from the "Three's Company" sitcom.

I have a few from Ashro.com. They are lovely and fun. Most are polyester so of course they can feel a bit clingy and warm, the fabric does not breathe. For a costume cover-up they are nice and affordable.

Thanks!

I don't know how many Ross Stores are out there but I found a good variety of caftans there for $8.00 - $12.00(I'm in Knoxville, TN and I found very similar caftan inventory at a Ross in Phoenix AZ.) HOpe this helps :)

I´ve only bought muu-muu´s(not the coverups) but they are lovely,and they ship fast!

Friends who bought coverups have been happy with the service,and measurements have been correct.

Since I don´t need to look representative(I work with online support)I´m slowly realizing that I own 3 different type of clothes:
1:Training clothes in garish lycra,in the tradition of Raqia Hassan.
2:Blingy party clothing.
3:Comfy abayas/muu muu´s/galabeyas/caftans in materials like viscose/rayon/silk/modal/cotton/linen.

where were these when I was looking for one?? saved that site to my faves anyway thanks for posting!
