One of the earliest references to the Ghlila was by Diego De Haëdo who recorded his observations during his time in Algiers from 1578 to 1581. Diego de Haëdo gave a description of women wearing voluminous blouses and long cossacks which he had identified as “goleyla” (Ghlila). De Haëdo described the Ghlila as being made from velvet, satin or damask, featuring a wide neckline secured with silver or gold buttons and falling mid-length.
