Batik is originated from Java and technically, batik is the process of applying dyes to porous surfaces.

Nowadays batik has grown in popularity as well the supply of mass-produced, this is what they called batik printing, which is printed with tools like a mold.

The real batik is batik painting, the one that require so much time and energy than becoming works of art, the maker put a lot of passion on in and it becomes works of life.

Now, batik is the cultural heritage of Indonesia to the world and regarded as a cultural icon by Unesco.

During my traveling time, you'll see at least one piece of batik in my suitcase, either dress or skirt, i wear batik not only because it's beautiful, classic and rare thing to wear (if you are abroad) but rather defines my identity.

Happy Batik Day! Wear it and proud!
