What Is A Kaftan? History, Modern Styles, & Cultural Significance
A kaftan is a loose and long-flowing garment, often with long, wide sleeves. This piece of clothing has a long and decadent history and was been around since the ancient days of Egypt, Persia, the Ottoman Empire, and Mesopotamia. Traditionally the kaftan (also known as caftan) was only worn by royalty as a symbol of power and status around the 12th century. By the 17th century, these garments had made their way to the middle classes and were also becoming popular in middle eastern and North African countries. While kaftans have long been a staple in the Arabic world, they also made their way into Western fashion in the 19th century.
Kaftans can be spun from silk, made from bamboo, linen, cotton, or any other kind of flowy fabric. They can be simple pieces for casual day wear or on the beach or ornate as an excellent choice for an evening party. Some kaftans come embellished with detail, others come with printed fabrics, and then there are those that are simple cuts of color. Owning a collection of kaftans is a must for those wanting a wardrobe staple that serves in a thousand different ways. With a rich cultural heritage, an endless array of styles, and breathable, beautiful versatility, here's everything to know about wearing this easy essential garment.
