Yep, you guessed it! Our go-to, most-loved Kaftan of choice is nothing other than The Original Kaftan. Who said classic had to be simple? Not us. In West Africa, a kaftan is a pullover robe, worn by both men and women. The women's robe is called a kaftan, and the men's garment is referred to as a Senegalese kaftan. Have we sold you on this one-of-a-kind must have yet? By this point, you have to answer yes. How could we have not? A bright, gorgeous, comfortable, flowy dress that you can literally wear everywhere? What’s not to love? It may be made of wool, cashmere, silk, or cotton, and may be worn with a sash. Popular during the time of the Ottoman Empire, detailed and elaborately designed garments were given to ambassadors and other important guests at the Topkapı Palace.ABDYYEVA, Gulruh (2020).

In the 830s, Byzantine Emperor Theophilus, who fought the Abbasids on the battlefield and built a Baghdad-style palace near the Bosporus, went about in kaftans and turbans. Even as far as the streets of Ghuangzhou during the era of Tang dynasty, the Abbasid kaftan was in fashion. [3] Now that you’re fully aware of just how versatile and stunning these staple garments are, let’s dive into some of our favorite styles. Nearly 2,500 caftans and other garments belonging to subsequent sultans from the 15th to the 19th century are preserved in the Topkapı Palace museum.
