Hi Tushka,
You can order one online, but it's hard to find nice quality online sometimes. I've looked around in some of the local shops here in Atlanta actually and I can't seem to find them in the usual places. I don't know what happened to them all; they used to be in all the Islamic stores, but they are nowhere to be found now. If I find one, I'll let you know.

In Morocco, the women would wear the kaftans only indoors and never ever outside unless it was under a djellaba. I have one kaftan I love made out of red silk that is SOOOO comfortable! My friend gave it to me and the next time I go to Morocco I hope to get a couple more. A fairly new trend for women in Morocco is the jabador (a Moroccan style long shirt and pants to match) and the last time I was there, I picked one up in the local souk. I'd love to have one custom made for me.
Here are a couple of cool sites I found with Moroccan fashion; take a look, it's not what you might imagine:
