BATIK in fashion week
In 2009, UNESCO’s Cultural Heritage Committee officially designated Indonesian batik as an “Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity”.
​
Batik Fashion Week
is here to promote an iconic historical fabric of human civilisation.
The event comprises a series of fashion shows and art installations. The fashion shows feature casual, formal and high-fashion collections by local designers — all made of hand-stamped or hand-drawn batik textiles.
There is a strong belief the fashion shows can encourage Indonesia's youth to learn more about handmade batik and preserve the tradition. ​
