Moroccan Clothing

Everywhere you go in Casablanca, you can see men and women of all ages (kids, too) wearing the traditional dress of Morocco. Sure, people dress very modern as well. However, it is perfectly acceptable to wear your djellaba and slippers around town, and even recommended to wear it for a nice dinner. I can't complain- imagine the baggiest piece of clothing you could find, plus slippers! Moroccans sure know how to dress comfortably.

Have a look-

This little boy drinks Moroccan Tea while wearing a Fes hat, which is from the city of Fes.



The girl on the left is wearing a djellaba. You can tell because it has a hood in the back.
The girl on the right is wearing a kaftan. You can tell because of the belt.
Look at the blue Moroccan slippers!



In Morocco people drink lots of mint tea. It has lots of sugar in it. Moroccans like their tea frothy, so the "tea man" pours it from way above the glass. Anywhere you go, people always use the fancy pitchers and glasses.



This is me wearing a djellaba I borrowed from a student. I am wearing Moroccan slippers. This is in my living room!
