Modern caftans
The Moroccan caftan is a mixture of tradition and modernity also called takchita, is a symbol of both Moroccan tradition and innovation. The growing popularity of this garment, both in Morocco and abroad, stems from its elegance and simplicity. One of the oldest traditional dresses in the world, the Moroccan caftan, also called takchita, dates back to the Marinid dynasty. According to some researchers, it was popularized in Andalusia after the arrival of Ziryab, the 19th century composer who wore it when he arrived in this region.
