Now, let’s get to explore the unique and distinct fabric designs of Southeast Asia and
be amazed of the wonders of creations bringing out the best of their traditions, beliefs and
identify as Southeast Asian Nation.

LESSON 1: FABRIC/FABRIC DESIGN


Thailand

Thai silk is produced from the cocoons of Thai silkworms. It is


mainly produced in Khorat which is the center of the silk industry
in Thailand. Thai weavers from this region raise the caterpillars on a steady diet of mulberry
leaves.

Today, Thai silk making is considered to be one of the finest arts in the world, a product of a
unique manufacturing process and bearing unique patterns and colors.

Cambodia https://bit.ly/2BWYziI

Silk weaving in Cambodia dates to as early as the first century since textiles were used for
trading. Modern textiles have traces of motifs imitating clothing details on ancient stone
sculptures.

160There are two main types of Cambodian weaving:

1. ikat technique (Khmer term: chongkiet) - To create patterns, weavers tie and

dye portions of weft yarn before weaving begins. Patterns are diverse and vary
by region; common motifs include lattice, stars, and spots.

2. uneven twill - It yields single or two-color fabrics, which are produced by

weaving three threads so that the "color of one thread dominates on one side of
the fabric, while the two others determine the color on the reverse side."

Traditionally, Cambodian textiles have employed natural dyes coming from:

a. insect nests - Red dye

b. indigo - Blue dye

c. prohut bark- Yellow and Green dye

d. ebony bark- Black dye

Cambodia's modern silk-weaving centers


are Takeo, Battambang, BeanteayMeanchey, Siem Reap, and Kampot
provinces.

Silk-weaving has been revived in the past ten years and now provides employment

for many rural women. Cambodian silk is generally sold domestically, where it is
used in sampot (wrap skirts), furnishings, and pidan (pictoral tapestries). Now, it
has seen an increase in export viability.

Cotton textiles have also played a significant role in Cambodian culture. Though

today, Cambodia imports most of its cotton, traditionally woven cotton remains

popular. Rural women often weave homemade cotton fabric, which is used in

garments and for household purposes. Krama, the traditional check scarves
worn almost universally by Cambodians, are made of cotton.

Laos

According to Lao tradition, stories of their history were not passed


on orally nor was it written, they were woven. Strand by strand, Lao
stories were weaved in the intricate dense patterns and motifs of textiles.
Unfortunately some are elaborately fantastic, and

the motifs so cryptic, that in many cases only the weaver can accurately
interpret the story.

Most diverse of these stories are the ones woven into a sihn—the Lao
women’s ankle-long skirt whose form is undeniable but whose patterns
are unique to each skirt.

Though the skirt looks simple and elegant, it is traditional that every woman in Laos
weaves all the sihns she would wear throughout her lifetime.She uses folk icons to express
personal views. This is often accomplished by symbolist totems from the inanimate or

animate world—crabs for resourcefulness, snakes for fertility, butterflies for beauty, birds for
success, and so on.
Vietnam

Vietnam Golden Thread Silks were born in Vietnam. Many


of our Vietnamese fabrics originated from Ha Dong, the
center of weaving and sericulture (silk worm production) for
centuries. Old jacquard looms are still used, weaving
patterns containing centuries-old symbols and characters.

Golden Thread Silks were born in Vietnam. Many of our Vietnamese fabrics originated from Ha
Dong, the center of weaving and sericulture (silk worm production) for centuries. Old jacquard
looms are still used, weaving patterns containing centuries-old symbols and characters.

Some popular Vietnamese fabric ranges are:

1. Shantung taffeta

2. Bengaline weave

3. Ebony satin - an all-natural lustrous silk hand-woven in southern Vietnam and naturally dyed
using ebony fruit pods. The fabric dates back over a century, but was only recently revitalized by
the designer Vo Viet Chung.

Indonesia, Malaysia& Singapore

The fabric most common to both countries is the Batik. The term “batik” is an Indonesian
Malay word, believed to be related to the Malay word “titik”, which means ‘point’,‘dot’ or‘drop’.
The “drop” action refers to the process of dyeing the fabric by making use of a Resist
technique: covering areas of cloth with a dye-resistant substance (usually hot wax) to prevent
them from absorbing colors. https://bit.ly/3icbZrH

This technique is has been taught for over a thousand years.

There are two categories of batik design


1. geometric motifs

2. free form designs

https://bit.ly/3icbZrH

Modern batik designs depend on the creativity of their designers. Naturalistic motifs like leaves,
flowers and birds have been utilized to create elaborate and intricate design.

Modern designs also include more colors, courtesy of chemical dyes, as artists

are not bounded by the strict guidelines of traditional practices, when craftsmen were

dependent on natural dyes.

In Malaysia, the states of Kelantan and


Terengganu are considered the cradle where batik first
flourished, reaching even Singapore’s shores.

There are two main types of batik that are


produced there:

1. Handpainted-
the artist uses the
canting, a small copper container
https://bit.ly/2YMNYj9 with one or more different-sized
pipes.

2. Blockprinted- done by welding together strips of metal to form a


metal lock. The metal block is then dipped into molten wax and https://bit.ly/3geGVpn pressed
against the fabric in order to make a pattern.

Leaves and flowers in Malaysian batiks are incorporated to avoid the interpretation of
human and animal images as idolatry, in accordance with local Islamic doctrine. This makes
their batik look similar to that of Indonesia. However, the Malaysian batik is famous for its
geometrical designs or spirals. The method of Malaysian batik making is also different from
those of Indonesian Javanese batik. Their patterns are larger and simpler. More brush painting
is applied to be able to put lighter and more vibrant colors than deep colored Javanese batik.

In Singapore, the existence and use of batik has been recorded since the 12th century
but has receded in popularity through the years. Nowadays, batik is featured in

as the uniform of flight attendants for the official flag carrier airlines of Singapore, Indonesia, and
Malaysia.

Brunei

Brunei's traditional textile is also called batik but it is


uniquely different from Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. Its
designs have their national flower simpur, sumboi-sumboi
(pitcher plant), and Brunei's traditional design of air muleh.

Different techniques are used in Brunei’s batik like


airbrushing, cracking, bubble, rainbow, sprinkle, geometry, and
marble. These techniques are applied on the fabrics like cotton,
chiffon, linen, and brocade. Hand-made batik designs are created
through the art of layering and mixing of colors injected with
creativity. Hand-made batik designs are created through the art of

Batik can be done in four different ways:

1. hand-drawn

2. using metal blocks

3. screen printing

4. digital printing
