# the Caftan or Kaftan represents femininity in its purest form.
Originally, the Caftan is of Persian origin, then under the Ottoman Empire (before the 14th century) then spread to Russia (19th century, Slavic clothing originating in Bulgaria, currently it is the Orthodox priests who continue to wearing Kaftans filled with wool, with a black outer fabric), before being imported by the countries of the Ottoman Empire and the Middle East in Moorish Andalusia (from 1492). It was not until the 15th century that it was introduced to Andalusia thanks to the caravan trade around the Mediterranean. Suffice to say that the caftan has as many variations as countries it has crossed. The Caftan was intended for wealthy families, for sultans, because silks and embroidery were really expensive and a sign of wealth. Then this one is democratized over the years, thanks in particular to the trade of fabrics. Currently, the Caftan is the ceremonial dress par excellence during ceremonies (weddings, baptisms, religious holidays, …) the designers have democratized the original Caftan by adapting it to the particularities of our civilization of the 21st century. Yves Saint Laurent participated in the re-styling of the Moroccan Caftan and its discovery. Dimensions: Shoulder width: 42 cm Sleeve length: 46 cm Height: 94 cm
