It's a combo of wrap skirt and backless top againnnn 🏝️

I bought the wrap skirt in Kalimantan/Borneo from the northeastern part and it has hornbills and kelakai (Stenochlaena palustris). Those flora and fauna are important and dearly loved by the indigenous Dayak who live there.

Each time I attended nature conservation-related meetings or conference, this skirt is on the to-wear list. I like the colors and the vibe this skirt gave me.

In this pic I paired it with long sleeves with Shanghai collar and I put black Batik scarf with Encim/Nyonyah pattern.

I wore a Javanese kebaya and Javanese batik. It was a lovely day!

I wore a silk blouse (handmade, customized tailored) with black culottes from cotton and a purple pashmina. I used the pashmina to veil my head if I'm out under the sun because it was (and is) so shiny, hot, it made my head dizzy. It was in an ethnographic museum of Indigenous Dayak in Central Borneo.
