Wedding and Event Dress Caftan Marrakech 2017
Ceremonial dress and symbol of elegance of the
Moroccan woman, the caftan has adapted as much to the regions as to the times,
resulting from the creativity of the craftsmen and a heritage today revised by
Moroccan couturiers. Its appearance dates back to the Merinid dynasty
1244–1465. Also called Takchita, it would have been popularized in Andalusia
according to some researchers who claim that Ziryab, the famous composer of the
ninth century, was the first to wear it in this region.
Morocco discovers its first caftans in the eighth
century, together with Andalusia and made it an emblematic garment from the
eleventh century. At the time, this piece is not only a formal dress, but also
a symbol of wealth, since worn in the usual way by wealthy people and nobles.
The caftan was feminized
only in the seventeenth century ...
Over the centuries, the caftan has adapted to the
different cultures present in Morocco. Today, there are four traditional
versions, each specific to a specific region. The caftan Chamali-North,
Fassi-Fes, Meknassi-Meknes and Rbati-Rabat. But where did the caftan originally
come from? The versions diverge.
For some we retain, it would be derived from the
costumes of the Ottoman Empire.
Originally worn by men, the caftan was feminized only
in the seventeenth century. In the nineteenth century, when Morocco underwent a
significant economic expansion, the caftan flirts for the first time with the
Braocart Lyonnais or the Silks imported from China.
A field of artistic expression, the caftan became
indissociable from embroideries in gold thread of Fez, from the more Floral and
multicolored ones of Tetouan or even Geometrical variations in silk thread
originating in Rabat. Sfifa, Kitane, M'ramma, Darss are the key words of this
unique cultural mix.
... And continues to change
to the rhythm of the evolutions of the woman
If this dress evolved, especially during the twentieth
century, it is because his client has also changed. "The Moroccan woman is
becoming more and more demanding, since she has grown up in the culture and
tradition of the Caftan," seamstress Fouzia Naciri tells MAP-Maghreb Arab
Press.
"Sometimes we almost want to say that every woman
is capable of creating her own Caftan," Says the founding stylist of the
Haute Couture House L'atelier du caftan. The possibilities are endless for the
client. Different Fabrics, Ornaments and Cuts are now offered to her.
The same is true of the young designer Karima Draâ,
the founder of Choucha Caftan, who emphasizes that "The modern woman
demands more and more tailor-made", making it possible to highlight the
feminine silhouette in all its elegance. " She says, the caftan remains a
symbol of prestige above all, that "It is of its legendary past".
