Burgundy Moroccan Djellaba with Asymmetric Front and Gathered Sleeves

Burgundy Moroccan Djellaba with Asymmetric Front and Gathered Sleeves

This women’s Moroccan djellaba combines a deep burgundy colour with an asymmetric upper-front detail and softly gathered sleeves. Delicate curved motifs decorate the chest and cuffs, giving the design a restrained ornamental finish.

The full-length body falls loosely through the waist and widens gently toward the hem. An attached pointed hood completes the silhouette, while the largely plain lower section keeps attention on the neckline and sleeve shape.

An Asymmetric Line Across the Upper Front

A slanted decorative line travels from the neckline toward one side of the upper body. Small loop-shaped accents follow its path, creating an off-centre arrangement that distinguishes this design from a straight central front.

The neckline has a softly angled appearance where it meets the hood. The diagonal detail adds structure to the upper section without introducing a contrasting full-length panel.

Below this area, the front remains plain burgundy. The uninterrupted colour allows the shape of the garment and its soft folds to remain clearly visible.

Curved Motifs on the Chest

Fine ornamental lines sweep across the upper chest in a flowing, wave-like arrangement. Pale rose and muted beige tones provide a gentle contrast against the dark background.

Small rounded and teardrop-like accents accompany the curves. Their placement gives the decoration a light, trailing appearance rather than forming a dense geometric or floral panel.

The motifs sit beside the diagonal front detail, creating an intentionally asymmetric composition. This gives the upper section visual interest while preserving the simplicity of the surrounding burgundy surface.

Gathered Sleeves with Defined Cuffs

The long sleeves have a softly full shape and gather into narrower cuffs at the wrists. These gathers introduce volume above the cuff and give the sleeves a rounded outline.

The cuffs carry coordinating curved motifs and small decorative accents. Their more structured shape provides a clear finish to the fuller sleeve.

When choosing a size, check both upper-arm room and the desired cuff fit. Customers requesting custom measurements may also be asked for wrist circumference so the sleeve opening can be agreed.

A Simply Finished Pointed Hood

The attached hood rests over the upper back and narrows into a pointed tip. Fine contrasting trim follows the hood opening, outlining it without a broad decorative border.

The rear body remains plain, with the hood and gathered sleeves providing most of its shape. The decorated cuffs remain visible from behind, connecting the rear view with the details on the front.

A Long, Uncinched Silhouette

The djellaba is shown without a belt and falls freely from the upper body. Its gently widening lower section creates a relaxed outline, while the plain skirt balances the more detailed neckline and cuffs.

A narrow finish follows the hem. There are no large decorative panels near the lower edge, keeping the burgundy colour continuous through the length of the garment.

For the intended fit, consider your shoulder width, bust, hips, and upper arms. If you plan to wear another outfit underneath, mention this when confirming your size so the preferred amount of room can be discussed.

Styling the Burgundy Colour

The deep burgundy shade can be paired with cream, taupe, muted rose, or gold-tone accessories. Small earrings work well with the asymmetric neckline, allowing the chest decoration to remain visible.

For a simple daytime combination, choose neutral flats and a plain bag. Dressier shoes and a compact evening bag can give the same design a more polished appearance for family celebrations, festive dinners, or evening visits.

If you wear a scarf, a plain finish will sit naturally alongside the curved chest motifs. Soft beige or dusty rose can echo the lighter decorative colours without adding another pattern.

Size Guide

The measurements below are an approximate body-size reference, not the finished dimensions of the djellaba. Additional room in the finished garment is needed to create the relaxed silhouette shown.

Compare your bust, waist, and hip measurements with the guide, then contact Dar Caftan to confirm the appropriate size. Sleeve length, shoulder width, upper-arm room, and cuff fit may need to be checked separately.

Taking Your Measurements

• Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level across your back.
• Waist: Measure around your natural waist without tightening the tape.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips with your feet together.

Provide your actual body measurements without adding extra centimetres. Tell us how loose you would like the garment to feel so the appropriate allowance can be agreed separately.

Custom Measurements and Sleeve Fit

Custom measurements are available upon confirmation. We may request your shoulder width, upper-arm circumference, wrist circumference, sleeve length, height, and preferred garment length alongside your bust, waist, and hip measurements.

For this gathered-sleeve design, sleeve length and cuff fit are particularly useful to confirm. Let us know where you prefer the cuff to sit and whether you would like more or less fullness above the wrist.

Design Adjustments

You may ask about adjusting the overall length, sleeve fullness, cuff width, hood shape, or selected decorative details. Requests to add or remove an element are considered individually.

Contact Dar Caftan before ordering to confirm feasibility, final price, and preparation time. Additional design changes are separate from the standard custom-measurement option.

Before Placing Your Order

Contact Dar Caftan for confirmation of fabric composition, care instructions, current availability, or preparation time. If you need the djellaba for a specific date, provide your delivery destination and required date before placing the order.

The burgundy shade and lighter decorative tones may appear slightly different depending on lighting and screen settings. Review the front and back images to see the asymmetric detail, hood shape, and gathered sleeves.
