IntroductionSlide3
There are lots of countries that have known Batik, such as Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Thailand,
Azerbaijan and
China
.
After they understood batik, they made clothing with the motifs which looked like batik motifs in the form of printing. The major difference between their clothing and our batik is the techniques used and the colours. Original batik was made using a manual wax-dyeing technique. Most the colours of clothing from other countries were strong colours, whilst most of Indonesia’s clothing colours are softer.

Other Clothing
For Boys; they use two pieces of clothing, which is a shirt and long skirt that is called a “
Jarit
Parikesit”. The shirt usually uses different kinds and numbers of buttons. There are pockets with a handkerchief in a triangle shape and the color is red. For accessories, from the pocket there is a gold watch hanging. For girls, they wear mostly the Kebaya and a scarf or veil that have some decorations with bright colosr. Kebaya and the veil use the similar color.There are more than fifty designs of clothes for each country. Each of the designs represents their own culture. But some designs are mixed between their own culture with other country’s cultures. For example like China, they use Indonesia (Surabaya) batik materials for some smart clothes. They modify the batik motif with their own cultural
colours
and patterns. Most of the batik motifs are modified to a flower pattern with some colors that represents their culture.
COLORS:
The
colors that the artists use are based on the country’s personality and their qualities. Each color that they use has its own meanings. They both mostly use lots of colors and can be similar. But the different approach is when they mixing and combining the colors.
Boys and girls use different colors. Usually
boys wear pure and also crème. For girls, they usually wear pink, red, orange and other bright colors.
