What is an "Afghan"?

An Afghan is a traditional garment worn by both men and women. It is a loose, long-sleeved tunic that extends below the knees and is typically made of wool or cotton. The garment is often decorated with intricate embroidery and can be worn over loose-fitting pants known as shalwar or paired with a long skirt for women. The afghan is typically worn for both everyday wear and formal occasions, and it is considered an important part of Afghan culture and heritage.
