Info on Ikat Chapans:
Ikat chapans are beautiful traditional garments that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Central Asia, particularly among Turkic and Persian-speaking peoples. A chapan is a type of long, robe-like coat that has been worn for centuries across Central Asia, including countries like Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan.
The "ikat" part refers to the distinctive tie-dye or resist-dye technique used to create the fabric. Ikat is a method where the yarns are dyed before being woven into the fabric, creating intricate, often geometric patterns. The technique is known for its vibrant, slightly blurred patterns that add a unique character to the finished textile.
Ikat chapans are often made from silk or cotton, and the patterns can range from bold, geometric shapes to more floral or abstract designs. These garments are usually worn during special occasions, festivals, or ceremonies, as they symbolize status and elegance. The chapan’s luxurious and intricate design reflects the wearer’s cultural identity and appreciation for craftsmanship.

20th century Uzbek cotton and silk ikat chapan robe
Uzbekistan, 20th Century
Height 122cm, width 153cm
Historically, an ikat chapan robe was a status symbol worn by nomadic tribes and settles in Uzbekistan as well as other Central Asian regions. Paired with belt, tunic, and trousers, the brightness of colours and intricacy of the embroidery were indicators of the wealth of the wearer.
The robe in Mayfair Gallery’s collection is brightly coloured with large, red and yellow geometrical patterns on a cream-coloured base. The inside of the robe is also patterned, with red floral motifs formed in a geometrical and symmetrical pattern.
The outside trim of this silk and cotton ikat chapan robe is elegantly embroidered with white and red patterns. Such embroidery carried symbolic meaning, protecting the wearer from evil spirits. The long sleeves are a beautiful design feature, intending to cover the wearer’s hands and protect them from cold temperatures.
