Traditional Clothing ~1001 Nights~

Well hello Cutie Pies.

Today is a lovely sunny day and i thought of sharing with you two of my most favorite traditional clothings. These are Oriental dresses also called "Caftan" that women wear in special occasions such as weddings.

You can find a kind of varieties, all colors, all lenghts, etc.. but the beautiful thing about those, it's that it makes a woman feel like a Princess from the 1001 nights story.


This first one is a black and silver dress/caftan. The top part is a made of black silk embroided with the same color and decorated with some beautiful shiny black rhinestones.



The bottom part is a silver brocade skirt, it also has hidden pockets to carry your phone or anything you need to have on you all the time. Caftans are worn with some kind of belts, the caftan itself is beautiful but a special belt worn with it makes it 10 times more beautiful.

The belt i am wearing is made of metal so that it keeps a beautiful shape and gives the caftan that look of prestige. There are different types of belts even those made of cardboard and covered with the same fabric as the caftan.


The embroidery on the caftan is handmade, handsewed or whatever it is called (lol) the lady was nice to add pearl leafs and rhinestones on the embroided flowers. 




I honestly had no idea how would this turn out i had no design in mind and i just let her do her work as she likes, she's the professional not me. It turned out better than i expected, i was amazed and hats off for her patience.



This one is royal green velvet dress/caftan, it also has a green silk skirt that goes with it. Sometimes it looks teal but you know how velvet is. The sleeves aren't that long, 3/4 sleeves. It's sewn with a beautiful silver lace kind of thing.



This one i personally sewed the rhinestones on it, i layed them however i felt like it on the collar and i was really satisfied with the result, for someone who doesn't know that much about caftans i guess i did a pretty good job.



This brooch i got it from a shop called Diamantine, i don't always wear it with it but i just guess it looks really pretty.

Bonus :



Here's a white one to sooth your soul (lol)

Lovely Day Cutie Pies ♡
