Reviving the "Old"

Nothing beats the look of  "Golden" age. The style and overall look is indescribable. So don't ever discard the still good Baju Kurung top and such belonging to the "Golden" generation. Just pair it up with a skirt or batik and a pair of cool Converse sneakers and you are good to go! Fusion of the old and new.. cool right?! Can run, climb, hide and there's pocket to stuff all "stuffs" in.. hehe..


See... now all set to chase after my "kenits" in my late grandma's Kasa Rubiah Kurung top and my own sarung Batik paired with sneakers.

The "Golden" years Baju Kurung cutting is unlike now where everything is modernised. This particular top was personally hand sewn by my late grandma, Nenek Nab. It was carefully cut out without using any pattern drafts. The neck was meticulously hand sewn using the "Tulang Belut" stitch. This makes it all the more special. So.. go find the old and revive it!
