What to Wear in Ikat Prints: 6 Fabulous Outfit Ideas

Ikat prints have been around for centuries in several cultures all around the world, and for good reason. The intricately woven patterns and colors create mesmerizing prints that make for stunning outfits. If you’re new to Ikat and want to add statement pieces to your wardrobe, here are six killer outfit ideas for you. 

1.  Ikat Print Tencel Dress

If you’re looking for a romantic vibe, our Ikat print dress for women might be the perfect option for you. Ethically made with sustainable materials, this dress is perfect for those days when you want to get ready quickly but still look polished and chic. 

The Ikat Print Tencel Dress was made for the busy woman. We created this versatile piece that is easy to move in and nursing-friendly, meaning you can wear it to work and don't have to worry about changing when you come back home to your kids. It’s a low-maintenance clothing item that you can wash at home, no dry cleaning required. 

It’s the perfect daytime midi dress. Pair it with comfy sandals and a tote, and you’re summer-ready in seconds. It’s also perfect for special occasions if you want something quick and easy but also effortless and elegant. You can choose between our two color options, ivory and blue, and own this beautiful, timeless piece for years to come.

2. Ikat Maxi Skirt

The maxi skirt has been a fashion favorite since the 90's, and we’re sure that it’s going to stay one for a long, long time. You may wonder why. That’s because a maxi skirt outfit is never a bad idea. Pair this timeless skirt with the timeless Ikat print, and that’s an outfit you’ll treasure forever. 

If you’re looking for a piece that you can wear all year round, don’t look any further. The Ikat maxi will soon become your wardrobe staple, and that’s a guarantee. It’s comfy, it’s stylish, it’s whimsical—it’s literally anything you want it to be! Pair it with ankle boots and a sweater for a cozy autumn look, or throw on a graphic tee and a pair of sneakers for a more casual vibe. There are only right ways to style this skirt. 

 

3. Statement Ikat Blazer 

We get it. The struggle to find office-appropriate outfits is real. That’s why we have the perfect solution to make your 9–5 outfit boardroom meeting-ready while still being perfectly professional. 

A statement Ikat blazer paired with tailored trousers and a neutral crisp shirt is a look that’s both stylish and professional. Add a pair of sleek pumps, and your workplace attire is no longer boring. 

There’s more that this chic blazer can do. It's a versatile piece that can take you from work to play in no time. Pair it with your favorite little black dress for a night on the town or wear it with a simple white tee and jeans to elevate your daytime look—the possibilities are truly endless. 

 

4. Ikat Print Jumpsuit 

Is there a more comfy outfit than a jumpsuit? We think not. It’s like wearing pajamas out in public, but you don’t look like you just rolled out of bed; instead, you look like you stepped off the runway. There’s not a more chic look than a tailored jumpsuit with statement earrings and platform sandals. 

There is nothing not to love about a jumpsuit. And there’s everything to love about an Ikat jumpsuit that is perfect for both daytime and nighttime looks with a little bit of styling. The colorful prints and geometric patterns lend themselves to the jumpsuit silhouette beautifully. We predict this is going to become your wardrobe staple. 

And bonus! It’s perfect for literally every occasion. Whether it’s Sunday brunch with friends, a road trip getaway, or a board meeting at work, dress it up or dress it down, and you cannot look anything less than fabulous in an Ikat jumpsuit. 

 

5. Ikat Crop Top 

We all know that crop tops will always be in style. And Ikat prints will never go out of style. Combine the two together, and you might just have the perfect timeless outfit. 

Wear it on its own with your favorite bottoms in the summer or layer it with long jackets and pants in the winter; you have an outfit for every season with this crop top. Talk about an all-rounder! 

You can style this for daytime and nights out easily. Wear it with flared pants or a flowy skirt with sandals for an effortless daytime look. And if you swap out the flowy bottoms with leather high-waisted pants and throw on some heels, you’ve got yourself a sleek night out look. 

 

6.  Wrap-style sundress

Picture this: you’re strolling through the weekend farmer’s market in a chic wrap-style Ikat dress and a pair of comfy sandals, your hair effortlessly pushed back with a pair of oversized sunglasses. Throw in a floppy hat and SPF—because sun protection will never go out of style—and you’ve got yourself a look that says, “I woke up like this.”

A wrap dress creates definition and shape without compromising on comfort. And what better way to spruce up your summer wardrobe than with this timeless dress style in a gorgeous Ikat print? 

But let's talk about versatility for a moment. The Ikat wrap dress isn't just for leisurely strolls through the market—no, no, no, it’s a multitasking wonder that can take you from brunch scenes to date nights with ease! Swap out the sandals for some heels and add some statement earrings, and voila, your night-out look is complete. 

We bet you’re as in love with the gorgeous Ikat print as we are. It’s impossible not to be. We hope your next wardrobe addition is a gorgeous Ikat print that we are sure you will love forever.
