Moroccan tarbouch

Tarbouche Fez (طربوش فاسي or ṭarbūš FASI) is a rigid male headgear felt, often red, truncated cone shape, decorated with a black tassel attached to the top. The fez is from Greece  , and has been adopted by many ethnic and religious groups in the Ottoman Empire nineteenth century. Nowadays, it is increasingly rare to see covered.

However, this assumption of Fez Moroccan Ottoman origin does not explain why the one hand the Ottomans called the cap "Tarbouch fassi" that is to say in French "Fez Hat" and why other share the Moroccans call "Fez", the "Tarbouch" and sometimes the "scarf". Moroccans who have not known Ottoman colonization never called the cap "hat Ottoman." (See history and origin of Fez)

There is another hypothesis stating that the inhabitants of Fez taunted the Ottoman Algeria who never managed to get beyond the wadi Moulouya wearing a head covering similar to theirs.

In Morocco, the Moroccan Fez (cap shorter than the Ottoman fez) is still part of the official uniform of Moroccans and is worn with a white slippers jellaba yellow or white, this dress is that groups of Arab-Andalusian music Moroccan. (see external links)
