Designed by Galuh Kenanga in Bali, this beautiful sundress showcases Indonesian hand-stamped batik. Traditional motifs flow across fields of turquoise in a frock to wear all summer long.

It slips over the head and the straps tie at the shoulder.

"I feel pretty"
The dress is well made and the fit is flattering. I was feeling bad about my looks lately due to aging and cancer effects. I put on this dress and felt pretty. Bonus. The dress came in a pretty drawstring bag. This added to my pleasure for the day. No plastic. Hurray.

"Casual, comfortable and pretty"
Great little sundress! The fabric print and color is beautiful and the dress is comfortable to wear, with unusual and fun pockets. It provides fairly moderate coverage with wider, adjustable straps and a neckline that isn't deep. The smocked elastic back gives it a nice fit without being restrictive. I found that the straps covered my bra straps quite well. I only wish the front of the strap was sewn on rather than buttoned, and I may do that step myself. I am 5' 6" and it was just below knee length on me. I will get a lot of use out of this on my upcoming trip to Costa Rica! Thank you for the great craftsmanship!

"Love this dress!"
I ordered this dress for a trip to the Bahamas. I wasn't sure how it would fit when it came. I'm 63, 5'9.5". It looks wonderful, and I am so happy with it. I love the colors, and how it fits. The straps are adjustable too. I do feel pretty in it like the other reviewer mentioned.

"Perfect for an island vacation!"
I bought this for a trip to French Polynesia. I wanted something that was pretty but not fancy. I looked at so many dresses and all of them were either too beach like or way to fancy for the islands. This dress is perfect! The fabric is lovely and the dress is so comfortable. You can add a little turquoise jewelry and some pretty sandals and go out to a nicer restaurant and feel like your dressed just right. Thank you for this perfect dress!

"Well designed rayon sundress"
I bought this sundress for a tropical vacation. It fitted well and was cool and comfortable. I especially liked the fact that it is a slightly longer length.
