batik textile

Balinese artisans print the horizontal stripes on Donald Wira Putra's knee-length dress using batik– a traditional resist dyeing method popular in Indonesia. The short-sleeved dress is handcrafted entirely from cotton, and features a trio of colourful stripes in navy, white, and kelly green.

Fresh and flirty, this feminine drop-waist sundress is from artisan Galuh Kenanga of Bali. The artisan carries on the ancient art of batik, which uses wax-resist methods to create the beautiful purple and white floral pattern on soft and fluid woven rayon. the sleeveless dress features a scoop neckline and a ruffled skirt that hits above the knee.
