rare dresses

By Hari and Arthur, this elegant men's shirt showcases Bali's batik traditions. The cotton shirt features motifs of cultural significance, including the kawung or aren flower, and the parang or dagger, in light caramel brown, and black on ivory. They combine to create a visually stunning design with a front pocket and hidden coconut shell buttons, to go from casual or more dressy events.

Ivory cotton is dyed using batik, a resist-dyeing technique, to create this vibrant shirt. A variety of traditional Javanese and original motifs are used throughout the shirt. Hari and Arthur design it while embracing unexpected results, which they say adds to the uniqueness of his handcrafted textiles. The front includes hidden coconut shell buttons and a chest pocket.
