Made by hand. Made with heart.
Every Mala kaftan is made by a small community of skilled artisans in Thailand: family members, neighbours, and trusted makers who have been sewing together for years. We pay fairly, work slowly, and believe that when the people making your clothes are thriving, you can feel it in every stitch.
Isn't this beautiful! LOVE the colors. For reference I am 5'3" and this is the 45" length. As you can see in the pic it almost comes to my ankles, so I measured and it is actually 48", just so you know. Seller responds to questions promptly and is a fast shipper. Overall I am quite pleased with the beauty and quality of the dress - the length being the only exception.

Perfect caftan. Love that it can be ordered in varied lengths.
Beautiful flowing caftan. The only reason I didnβt give it 5 stars is because the contrast (tie dye) is barely visible. Itβs mostly the dark color. The fabric & construction appear to be of very nice quality & it arrived in a timely manner. Although the contrast wasnβt as pictured, I ordered another & the 2nd looks exactly as pictured. Very pretty & good price.

Iβve been wanting a Mumu for the longest time now & Iβm glad I decided to put my trust in buying one from this shop! For starters, the quality exceeded my expectations. Itβs super soft and breathable. The sizing was perfect (for reference: Iβm a 5β0 girl & got a 42 in. & itβs hitting right at my ankle where I wanted it). And finally this pattern is just lovely! Iβm definitely going to pair this with a belt, some big sunglasses, a sun hat, and sandals for a cozy summer look. 10/10β¦.definitely recommend if youβre looking for a solid Mumu!

So beautiful & flowy! I swear I've just entered my comfy, flowy kaftan/mumu era! It's a nice light material but not see through, great for hot southern summers. Would definitely recommend!

The black one is very pretty and chic. Looks just like the picture. And I love that you can customize the length because I'm quite tall. I bought 3 different colors.

I have been looking for a caftan for months and this one is BEAUTIFUL. It exceeded my expectations. The fabric is divine, the fit is perfect and I really wanted something that would be long enough to look elegant and this surely does.

I've never wanted a dress before, until now. I'm tall and pretty thick so its not easy finding comfy things, esp dresses, that I even want to buy. The material is so soft and flowy. Its SO comfortable! I will be buying more. I'm a size 2x/3x with some broad shoulders and it still fits great. I already bought the light blue kaftan for my friend for Mothers Day π

I may never wear real clothes at home again. Iβve wanted one for years. I ordered 2. Iβm about 5-9 1/2β with long legs. The regular length is fine because Iβm barefoot most of the time! I will be ordering more. The fabric is rayon, soft as can be. β₯οΈ

Really love it! It arrived quickly, the material feels great, and I LOVE that it comes in different lengths. Itβs so hard to find things that are long enough but the 58β length is great for me (5β11). I do wish there were pockets, but I still love it.

Another happy purchase! This is my second kaftan from Malahandworks, and I am officially hooked. The quality of these pieces is absolutely incredible. The fabric drapes beautifully, making it easy to dress up with eye-catching jewelry and cute sandals. I wore my newest one to a summer night dinner and never felt more comfortable or stylish. Shipping was incredibly fast, too. This is such a lovely shop all aroundβI will definitely be back for a third! Thank you!

Not to be ghoulish, but I needed burial clothing for my partner and me for green burial. This means no plastic of any sort, even threads. I am exceedingly happy with the kaftans; they are well made and also lovely. It took quite a bit of reseach and I am SO GLAD I found Mala.
