Kaftan

What is a kaftan?

The kaftan is a long, flowing dress, often worn on special occasions such as parties or weddings. It comes from a very ancient tradition, especially in the countries of the Maghreb, and it symbolises elegance and beauty. The kaftan stands out for its long sleeves and its loose cut, which offers perfect comfort, even when it is hot. It is also a prestigious garment, appreciated for its majestic look and its graceful bearing.

We offer kaftans made with soft and light fabrics, such as silk or velvet, which make each piece pleasant to wear. Many of our styles also have pretty embroidery or colourful motifs, which give a unique style that is very chic. The kaftan is versatile: you can wear it for an important event or even to feel elegant at home. Each piece reflects a wealth of craftsmanship and timeless skill.

Our selection puts the emphasis on the quality of the finishes and the detail of the ornaments, so that you feel special every time you wear it. Wearing a kaftan also means enjoying a traditional garment that adapts very well to modern style, thanks to its balanced cuts and its varied colours. Our range of kaftans makes the choice easy to find the perfect style that suits you, while honouring a cultural heritage and a Mediterranean essence.

How do you care for and clean a kaftan?

Gentle cleaning is essential to keep a kaftan beautiful for a long time. We often recommend washing the kaftan by hand, as this better preserves delicate fabrics and embroidery. Use lukewarm water with a mild soap made for fragile garments.

Avoid hard rubbing, which damages the fabric or removes the decorations. Never put your kaftan straight into a powerful washing machine, as this can distort the cut and break the threads. If you have to use a machine, choose a very delicate programme, with a light spin, and put the kaftan in a laundry net.

Air drying is the safest way to dry your kaftan. Do not leave it in the sun, as very strong light can make the colours fade. Lay it flat on a clean surface or gently hang it on a hanger.

To iron a kaftan, use a low temperature suited to delicate fabrics. Place a thin cloth between the iron and the kaftan to avoid burning the fabric or damaging the embroidery. Ironing gives a neat finish without risking damage to the garment.

Keep your kaftan in a dry place, away from dust. Use a fabric garment cover rather than a plastic bag. This way, your kaftan breathes and its fabric stays in good condition.

These simple steps that we suggest protect the quality and shine of your kaftan so that you can wear it proudly for a long time.

On which occasions can you wear a kaftan?

The kaftan is the perfect choice for weddings, as it brings elegance with its shiny fabrics and detailed embroidery. You can also wear a kaftan at family celebrations such as Eid, a christening or the birth of a child, as it lets you feel good-looking without giving up comfort. It adapts easily to big evenings thanks to its refined motifs and its varied cuts.

Many people choose a kaftan for an engagement, because this garment symbolises tradition and respect for the family, while adding a modern touch. We also offer kaftans for official ceremonies, as they show a real attention to detail and a wish to stand out. At home, a simpler kaftan makes moments of relaxation even more enjoyable thanks to its lightness.

Our simple styles are perfect for a dinner with friends or a visit. Wearing a kaftan during Ramadan lets you live the tradition without neglecting style. We give you the possibility of finding a kaftan suited to a chic event as well as to an ordinary day.
