[view source]Cultural Context
The kaftan is a traditional loose-fitting garment worn across North Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia for centuries. The star and crescent moon motif is associated with Islamic culture and has been used as a decorative element on textiles across the Muslim world. In Detroit, the large Arab-American community (centered in Dearborn) brought these garments into the city's cultural fabric.
