Kamala vociferously stands for primal female energy. She is powerful through her inner beliefs and exudes an aura which is dressed down and relaxed. She gives peace, prosperity and pleasure. Kaftan garments have been documented throughout history and civilization – through the fantasies of Arabian deserts, the mysticism of Indian temples, the regality of Turkish palaces, and the carefree life of the Southern Asian Islands. While the garment has been known over the years under various names, each with their own regional touch, the modern-day “Kaftan” has been renowned through the ages as a symbol of royalty – first conceived in western civilization as a romantic obsession with the idea of exotic otherness. Today, the Kaftan has become a revolutionary symbol for women’s comfort.
