Caftan Craze: 30 Middle Eastern Inspired Tops

The caftan (or kaftan) is traditionally a middle eastern top worn by men. The neckline is often a v-neck and sometimes it ties or buttoms up. The caftan has become a popular staple of summer lines for all designers. They come in many different styles, from tank to long sleeve, dress to tunic, solid to print. This summer there are so many to choose from, it was hard to pick just 30 to feature in this post (some are so great they're in here twice -- two different colors or styles)!
