Buy Women’s Cover Up Dresses for Swimwear Online

Long or short kaftan beach cover up? Here’s how to choose.

What’s the best beach cover up, short caftan dresses or long, ankle-grazing sarongs? When it comes to choosing a confidence-boosting caftan beach cover up, short styles are a great way to hide a tummy that’s making you self-conscious while still flaunting your legs. However, a classic sarong skirt can also be incredibly flattering – tied at one hip to create a dramatic side slit, they also flaunt lots of leg while helping to define your waist. So it really just depends on whether you feel your sexiest with your waist cinched in and highlighted, or elegantly kept under wraps.

You may also want to consider sun protection. A short caftan dress won’t offer much in the way of coverage for your legs, but it will keep your shoulders and upper body shaded from those rays. A large sarong on the other hand has the versatility of being able to be worn as a skirt, thrown shawl-like over your shoulders, or even tied into a strapless, halter or one-shoulder beach dress if you’re feeling creative!
