So what is it about this outfit that appeals to top celebrities including Oprah Winfrey?

Well first it is the elegance of the outfit, traditionally bits of real gold and silver wear sown into kaftan dresses and they would take upto 6 months just to make one outfit, this meant it was reserved only for the rich and royal members of society.
Second it is such a unique outfit, it is fair to say the Moroccan kaftan dress is one of a kind and nothing else quite matches it.

Some of the big brands make Moroccan caftans also like Haute Couture brands like Yves Saint Laurent, Oscar de la Renta, Christian Dior and many more  that introduced Moroccan Caftan and Takchita to mainstream media.

Arabian Boutique is one clothing brand that specialises in Arabian Dresses, they have a beautiful range of Authentic caftans that are made by berber women in Morocco to the traditional style, as a matter of fact some of their designers have made outfits for the royal family before.

There a few different types of Kaftan, many different nations have their own version, Israel and "Old Russia" also have elegant kaftans and now people even wear lighter material versions for the beach.

What makes the Moroccan Caftan different than the rest?

The style of embroidery used is the most different, and the thick heavier material. There is a light cotton version for daytime summer wear often found in the Souks of Marrakech popular for tourists it is a light cotton kaftan with embroidery around the neck in Arabic style. The real traditional kaftan is not something you would wear on a hot summer day however, it is much more thicker material with most women wearing them for weddings - a surprising truth is that women can wear upto nine different kaftans in a wedding - thats right nine! 
The price can vary greatly depending on both the quality, designer, style and materials used. Some kaftans can cost 15 euros wheres some can cost thousands of euros.

Oprah Winfrey is one celebrity who looked absolutely incredibly posing in a butterfly Kaftan while visiting Dubai, with it being such a luxury garment it is easy to see why celebrities enjoy its lavish style so much.
