The djellaba — also written jellaba — is the everyday garment of Moroccan women: covering, comfortable and always elegant. Recognisable by its qob hood and the discreet embroidery on sleeves and neckline, it changes with the seasons and the occasion. Our djellabas are made in Fes.
In summer the djellaba is made in light cotton, linen or voile, in pale colours that reflect the heat. In winter it is made in wool or heavy fabric, lined, with a more structured hood. The cut stays the same — straight, generous, ankle length — but the material changes the comfort entirely. We offer both, along with mid-season models.
The qob, the djellaba's pointed hood, is its signature. It is set by hand and often outlined with braid or a matching sfifa. Embroidery runs along the neckline, the front opening and the cuffs; in Fes it favours two-tone geometric motifs and matte silk thread. It is quieter work than a caftan's, but no less demanding.
The djellaba is the everyday garment, worn over an outfit and suited to going out or to work. The caftan is a reception dress, more formal. The takchita, in two pieces, is reserved for the grandest ceremonies. Many of our customers own all three: a djellaba for daily life, a caftan for invitations, a takchita for weddings.
