As a part of our belief in transparency Atacac would like to share the pattern and 3D-model for this garment. As per our philosophy, this garment is free to download. However, we appreciate your support of our development by donating 10€ or 30€.
Designed for bodies and souls, regardless of gender. This one size kaftan is also available in our store in a Liberty's silk or a black cotton, 126cm long from centre back neck to hem. The caftan is constructed from a single rectangular piece of fabric being draped over the shoulder in the same manner as described in chapter 2.2 of Kinetic Garment Construction.
Print the pattern out on a large scale plotter or use the tile function if printing on a normal printer and print it in small pieces and then tape the pattern together.
When downloading you will get 4 different files. A png illustrating the garment, a pdf ready for print, a dfx that can be imported into any CAD/CAM software and a ZPrj with the pattern assembled in 3D. The ZPrj file can be viewed and altered in CLO.
