A set of baju panjang, sarong, selendang

This outfit consists of a baju panjang, a sarong, and a selendang. The baju panjang is machine printed in Europe and decorated with motifs of roses, butterflies and birds. The sarong is weaved in a plaid pattern and the selendang is of black European lace. While these three garments have been grouped together, they are not made as a set. These garments provide a visual understanding to the dress and fashion of the period. Women wearing a printed baju, sarong, and black lace selendang were often pictured in 19th century to early 20th century photographs and postcards.
