Lavender Moroccan Wedding Kaftan
Our Lavender Moroccan Wedding Kaftan uses elaborate, traditional embroidery in silver thread. There are two pieces to this wedding takchita when used as Muslim wedding dresses:
- Tahtiya: An inner dress made of fine, shiny fabric that is long-sleeved and modest.
- Dfina (or Fouqia): An outer, more elaborate over-dress, which is sheer and richly decorated with embroidery and metallic threadwork.
Both have a fancy collar that layers one on top of the other, as the Moroccan caftan does. It buttons up the front with traditional closures. Wear it with our rhinestone bridal belt. As one of our Muslim wedding dresses, it's worn by the bride and also for special occasions like weddings, Eid, and formal events.

Lavender Moroccan Wedding Kaftan and Hijab
Moroccan caftans are not always worn with hijab. If you're looking for a Moroccan Wedding Kaftan to wear as a lavender Islamic wedding dress, it's easy to accommodate the difference. Head coverings can be coordinated in color and decoration with the takchita, enhancing the outfit’s harmony and elevating its ceremonial appearance. Fabrics like chiffon, satin or silk are common for the hijab to complement the luxurious texture of the wedding caftan. The choice and style of head covering can also reflect regional traditions and personal taste, making the overall look more distinctive and expressive:
- A popular and elegant way to wear a wedding caftan with a hijab is to tuck the hijab neatly into the neckline of the caftan. This style creates a seamless, modest look that highlights the intricate details of the caftan’s neckline and embroidery while ensuring full coverage and comfort. The loose ends of the hijab are tucked inside the caftan’s neckline or collar, giving a polished and clean finish.
- If you don't like it tucked in, try a layered effect for volume.
- Or wrap your hijab in a turban style or a wrap-around headscarf for a chic, fashion-forward look. This style is especially popular for brides seeking a contemporary edge.
- Many women drape a coordinating scarf or shawl (dupatta) over their hair or hijab for added elegance. You can find a contrasting silver dupatta in the Silver Muslim Wedding Shop.

History of the Muslim Caftan
The caftan became prominent during the Abbasid Caliphate (8th–13th centuries), where it was a luxurious garment worn by caliphs and aristocrats, often made of silver or gold brocade with decorative buttons. Not much has changed in the Moroccan kaftan design.
The kaftan symbolized rank and status. Ottoman sultans wore elaborately decorated kaftans, often gifted to dignitaries. The Ottoman Empire (1299–1922) popularized the kaftan across the Middle East and Mediterranean. Ottoman kaftans featured rich fabrics like velvet and silk, with intricate embroidery and specific colors indicating the wearer’s rank.
Introduced possibly in the late 15th or 16th century, influenced by Ottoman fashion through rulers, Moroccan kaftans became a symbol of cultural identity, evolving into both everyday and ceremonial wear with distinctive embroidery.
Yes, cultural pride, sis.
