Batik Show Wows Americans

Batik Show Wows Americans

Washington - Americans were bowled over by the clothes worn by models parading the Malaysian Batik Spring and Summer 2009 collection.

The full-house show, hosted by the Malaysian embassy here on Thursday, featured designs by Innai Batik, Nazleen Noor and Anggun Collection brought in by Mybizcouncil, a Malaysian business networking group in the United States.

The embassy turned into a fashion house for 30 minutes as guests witnessed a dizzying array of colours on kaftans by Innai Batik; Sarawak-inspired batik and Pua fusion featured by Anggun, and designs by Nazleen.

Photographers clicked away at the models in the Tun Hussein Hall.

The night of Malaysian culture and arts began with a journey through the Malay-sian art world featuring rare pieces by Malaysian artists acquired by the embassy over the last 50 years.

The exhibition, "Art Treasures from the Embassy", organised by the embassy, the Asia Society and the Malaysia America Society, depicted the history and people of Malaysia evolving over the years from its rubber and tin industries to present times.

Charge d`affaires Ilango Karuppannan said art was chosen as the theme to showcase Malaysia`s culture and heritage because "art is the window to the soul of society".

He said the art works and artifacts revealed the multiethnic, multicultural and multireligious nature of Malaysia while placing the country in Asia`s cultural footprint.
