The Unique Batik

I attended an awesome wedding last weekend and as usual my outfit of choice was a batik shirt. I loved batik not only for its simplicity but also because it suits most if not any occasion.

The art and technique of batik painting have been long brought down from generation to generation as the batik has a special place in Indonesia. There are many kinds of batik, as different place and area have their own batik print style and technique. But every area has one thing in common which are handmade and printed batik.


The handmade batik certainly cost so much more then the printed batik but they do have a special class of their own. Most people choose handmade batik for special occasion like when they are in the spotline or they are the main attraction as most handmade are usually unique. As for me, I only own two handmade batik for now. One was purchased when my elder sister got married and the other one was for my younger brother's wedding as I certainly can’t afford the risk of wearing or looking the same as the guest! ;)
