One of my favorite kind of batik is batik Indigo or known as the white and blue batik or traditionally called Batik “Kelengan”.  Somehow this style of batik is quite versatile and shed a very modern side of Indonesian Batik, because of its simple bluish color.  To process a Batik Indigo itself is done by dipping the cloth thru a unique process using natural coloring extracted from the Nila plant (Indigofera Tinctoria). This technique has been practiced since the olden days of the Colonial era and now my friends Nita and Yayat from Galeri Batik Jawa translated the Indigo batik thru their white and blue Batik Collections.  I love the fabulous silk Indigo batik scarves collection. I bought a couple for myself and to give away….love them.  Here is my pic with mas Yayat at the INACRAFT exhibition last April, 2010.  What I am wearing here is the simple Kawung pattern done in silk scarf….the chic, white, bluish grey color is just superb with my favorite black get ups.
