The Nyonya Kebaya

A Century of Straits Chinese Costume

Datin Seri Endon Mahmood

Antiques & Collectibles / Textiles & Costume

"Sheer, romantic, alluring, yet sedate, the Nyonya kebaya has become a recognisable and enduring Malaysian fashion icon. Originally a long, straight Arab-inspired top of plain cotton, it was adopted by the Nyonyas... who gradually transformed it into a shapely, embroidered, translucent blouse, fastened with a set of chained brooches and worn with a matching hand-drawn batik sarong and beaded slippers... Following an introduction to the history of the Nyonyas and the evolution of the kebaya, readers are treated to... kebaya from the collection of [the author]... The processes of making a kebaya, the wealth of embroidery motifs employed, and the ways in which the timeless beauty of the kebaya is being brought into the future are also described."--Book jacket.
