Get the Most Out Of Your Wedding Dresses

A wedding dress or bridal gown has always been considered of ceremonial importance depending on the religion and culture. Weddings were often more than just a union between two people. They could be a union between two families, two businesses or even two countries. Many weddings were more a matter of politics than love, particularly among the nobility and the higher social classes. Brides from wealthy families often wore rich colors and exclusive fabrics with layers of furs, velvet  and silk that befitted their social status, for they were not representing only themselves during the ceremony.

Though, the context has changed today. The idea of social status isn’t that of utmost importance, but a bride’s personal standing to appear her best for this very special occasion of her life.

Why Do People Think Kaftan Wedding Dresses is a Good Idea?

Kaftan (also known as Caftan) is a Persian word and happens to have originated from Mesopotamia, which is now known as Iraq in modern day. Although, worn and admired by a number of cultures over a thousand years, it was more conspicuous in North Africa and Middle East Asiatic region. Over years it has become a style statement as a loose fitting long suit, apart from being a symbol of Bohemian lifestyle. It is often worn as a coat or as an over dress too. In some cultures, it is also referred as a symbol of royalty. More recently, the kaftan introduced to the west in the late eighteenth century was contrary to the tight- fitting dress, though it slowly gained popularity, for its exoticism and as a form of loose-fitting clothing.

In the mid 19^th century, fashion designers often drew inspiration from ethnic styles, including kaftans. Street styles were appropriated by fashion designers, who marketed lavish, Moroccan-style kaftans as hostess gowns for casual at-home entertaining. Renowned fashion designers like Diana Vreeland, Babe Paley, and Barbara Hutton all helped popularize the wedding kaftan in mainstream western fashion.

For forward thinking fashion women, Kolkozy has introduced Kaftans as part of all season wear and its popularity as a women’s staple wear is growing year on year. Often made from materials like silk, we have successfully crafted a wide range of other fabrics, for instance, georgette, satin and French crepe. Finished with crystals & beading embellishments on the neckline & back of the garments, our many and varied kaftan styles are often preferred by a niche and wider audience. To add more vibrancy to it, we have infused bright, colorful & unique print designs ascribing Middle Eastern & Indian cultures mingled with trending color palettes & uber chic styles.
