Ceylan royal blue Moroccan kaftan

Royal blue is a confident choice. What surprises you about this royal blue Moroccan kaftan is what you discover at the cuffs: an almost frosted mint-green lace placed where no one expects it. Two colors that have no business together on paper, yet somehow work.

The silver embroidery of this royal blue Moroccan kaftan

The silver appears in small touches rather than broad expanses. It outlines the V-neck, gathers across the bodice, then follows the closure as sfifa—the braided trim that identifies Moroccan craftsmanship and that no machine can truly replace. Against such a deep background, every thread stands out clearly without making the piece look flashy.

The cut remains fluid all the way down without feeling tight anywhere. The velvet belt, fastened with a brooch, defines the waist and breaks up the vertical line—remove it, and the silhouette becomes straight again. The long sleeves keep the arms covered to the wrists, where the mint-green lace takes over.

When to wear this royal blue

Wedding, engagement, or formal evening: royal blue holds its own where black can seem severe and ivory too bridal. It is also a color that photographs well, which is no small detail when the day ends up in a family album.

If you are between two sizes, the size guide is still the best reference—the flowing cut is forgiving, and the belt adjusts the rest.

• One-piece royal blue Moroccan kaftan with silver embroidery at the V-neck and across the bodice
• Silver sfifa along the closure, with artisanal Moroccan finishing
• Long sleeves with mint-green lace details at the cuffs
• Velvet belt with brooch, included
• Care: dry cleaning recommended; do not iron directly over the embroidery

Which size should you choose for the Ceylan kaftan?

The model is available from sizes 38 to 46. The cut is fluid throughout: it does not cling and allows for slight size variations. If you are hesitating between two sizes, choose the larger one—the velvet belt adjusts the waist.Is the belt included?

Yes. The velvet belt, fastened with a brooch, is included with the caftan. It defines the waist and breaks up the dress's vertical line—without it, the silhouette becomes straight again. You can therefore wear the garment either way, depending on the desired effect.

What is the silver sfifa bordering the closure?

Sfifa is hand-braided trim sewn along the opening of a caftan. It is one of the finishing details that define traditional Moroccan craftsmanship: it dresses and reinforces the closure and gives the garment its characteristic texture. On the Ceylan, it is silver and complements the embroidery on the neckline and bodice.

Is this caftan suitable for women who wear the veil?

Partly. The sleeves are long enough to reach the wrists and the cut remains loose, providing good coverage. However, the V-neckline reveals some of the décolletage: those seeking full coverage can wear a thin turtleneck underneath or choose a high-neck model, such as the Calina or Amethysse.

For what occasions can I wear this royal blue caftan?

Weddings, engagements, henna ceremonies, and formal evenings. Royal blue holds its own where black can seem severe and ivory too bridal—it is a color you can wear as a guest without risking overshadowing the bride. It photographs particularly well under warm lighting.

How should I care for the silver embroidery and velvet belt?

Dry cleaning recommended. Never iron directly over the embroidery or sfifa: place a cloth between the iron and the garment, or steam from a distance. Store the velvet belt flat or rolled, without folding it at the brooch.
