It has no front opening and slips over the head. The fabric has a smooth, reflective surface that changes in appearance with the light, ranging from bright copper-orange to a deeper reddish rust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most unusual features is the repeated abstract design woven into the fabric. Each motif consists of an oval or ring-shaped centre surrounded by long, sharply pointed rays, resembling a stylized sunburst or even a space-age satellite. These blue and violet-toned designs are distributed across the front, back and sleeves, creating an unusual contrast with the traditional construction of the garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V-shaped neckline is bordered with rust-coloured decorative needlework incorporating geometric embroidery in bright blue. This continues down the centre front in a broad vertical band featuring a repeated arrangement of diamonds, intersecting lines and star-shaped patterns. Narrow decorative stitching also finishes the shoulder seams, sleeve edges and centre-front seam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe djellaba has a large, pointed hood that falls down the centre back when not in use. The hood is finished with matching decorative stitching and blue trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of traditional Moroccan tailoring, embroidered geometric detailing and the unusual abstract fabric design gives this djellaba a distinctive appearance associated with the fashions of the late 1960s and 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShoulders:\u003c\/b\u003e 16\" across from seam to seam\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSleeves:\u003c\/b\u003e 22\" from shoulder seam to cuff\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSleeve Inseam:\u003c\/b\u003e 19½\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChest:\u003c\/b\u003e 42\" circumference, measured under the arms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWaist:\u003c\/b\u003e 42\" circumference\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOverall Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 52\" from back neckline seam to hem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGarment Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e Morocco, attributed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAge:\u003c\/b\u003e Probably late 1960s to 1970s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStyle:\u003c\/b\u003e Traditional hooded Moroccan djellaba\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eColour:\u003c\/b\u003e Coppery rust-orange with electric-blue and violet geometric designs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFabric:\u003c\/b\u003e Lustrous satin woven fabric; possibly silk or rayon, fibre composition unconfirmed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDecoration:\u003c\/b\u003e Geometric embroidery and decorative braided trim\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good condition with no pronounced wear, tears, soiling, staining or odour.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Poppy's Vintage Clothing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67908110581865,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/1559\/files\/Spacey-Djellaba.jpg?v=1793400883","url":"https:\/\/www.poppysvintageclothing.com\/de\/products\/vintage-1970s-moroccan-djellaba-copper-satin-caftan","provider":"Poppy's Vintage Clothing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
