Virgo Moon Kaftan

Women put this on and something shifts. We have watched it happen enough times to say so plainly. Not a performance of confidence. The real thing, quiet, settled, already there.

The Virgo Moon is a bamboo rayon kaftan made by hand in Bali, with a silhouette that honors the Balinese tradition of ceremonial cover-up dressing. The fabric is stonewashed before it reaches you, which means it moves immediately, drapes immediately, softens against the skin from the first time you wear it. It is designed to move, to breathe, to feel like the most natural thing you have ever put on. Three colorways, each in small batches.

Available in Clay, Black Dark Moon, and Off White. 100% bamboo rayon, stonewashed. Allow 3 to 6 weeks from order to shipment, then 5 to 15 business days with DHL. The Virgo Moon runs long; please see the sizing guide for specific length measurements before ordering.

For the evening walk. The dinner by the water. The morning that becomes an afternoon without your permission. Wear it over a swimsuit or over nothing. This kaftan is not a garment for relaxing in. It is a garment that allows you to be completely yourself, which might be the most demanding thing there is.

Pairs beautifully worn open over the Kundalini Playsuit or the Suka Set for a layered ceremonial look.

We don't know how to explain what happens when women put this on except to say that some pieces carry something the photograph cannot show. If you have been looking at it for a while, that is probably not an accident.

Before you order

Will the Virgo Moon fit me?

Almost certainly. Kaftans are the most forgiving pieces I make, and women from US 2 to 22 and beyond wear this one. It is cut to drape rather than fit, so the only thing to check is length. It runs long: under 5 foot 4 it falls to the floor, and from 5 foot 9 it lands around the ankle.

What is bamboo rayon like to wear?

Softer and more fluid than linen, with a heavier drape that moves when you move. It is cool against the skin in heat, and it does not crease the way linen does, which makes it the easiest piece to pack.

How long will it take to arrive?

It leaves Bali 3 to 6 weeks after you order, then travels 5 to 15 business days with DHL, tracked. We write to you while it is being made, and you get tracking the day it ships.

How do I care for it?

Wash cold on a gentle cycle and hang to dry in the shade. Do not tumble dry. A short steam brings the drape straight back.

Can I exchange it if it is not right?

Yes, as an exchange. You have 10 days from delivery to send it back unworn, unwashed and with its tags, and we issue store credit toward the piece that is right. We do not offer cash refunds. If you are unsure before ordering, write to support@myrahpenaloza.com with your bust, waist, hip and height and we will tell you honestly.

Everything we make is handmade in Bali by our artisan families, in small batches and to order. 

Whether your piece is waiting in the studio or cut for you after you order, it is finished, checked and packed by hand, so allow 3 to 6 weeks before dispatch, with botanically dyed pieces toward the longer end. 

Once your order leaves Bali, transit is 5 to 15 business days, and tracking reaches your inbox within 5 days of dispatch.

If a piece arrives and the fit is not right, or it arrives damaged, you have 10 days from delivery to exchange it. We issue store credit rather than cash refunds, and the piece needs to come back unworn, unwashed, unaltered, with tags attached. Return shipping is yours unless the piece arrived damaged or incorrect.

Pieces customised for you (made to your measurements, in a custom colour or altered to your request) are final sale, because they were cut for you and cannot belong to anyone else. Sale items, anything bought with a discount code of 25% or more, and anything bought with store credit are also final sale. Made-to-order pieces in our standard sizes and colourways can be exchanged.

Orders can be cancelled within 24 hours of placing them.
