Traditional garment in West Africa (6)

I believe the answer is:

caftan

(Other definitions for caftan that I've seen before include "Middle-Eastern long dress" , "Cotton or silk ankle-length garment with full sleeves worn by men in the Levant" , "Long loose garment" , "Turkish loose garment" , "Woman's hat" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
