Sarong Kebaya - Peranakan Fashion in an Interconnected World 1500-1950

Informationen zum Autor Peter H. Lee is professor emeritus of Korean and comparative literature at the University of California, Los Angeles. Klappentext This book traces the history of the costume of Peranakan women; specifically, the sarong, kebaya, and baju panjang. The sarong kebaya is only a starting point, however, for a rich history of language, women, trade, slavery, community formation, and education. Profusely illustrated with a wealth of historical photographs and beautiful images of sarongs and kebayas from a large donation to the Peranakan Museum, as well as those in a private collection, the book will become a valuable reference. Independent scholar Peter Lee has amassed impressive documentation from primary and secondary sources in this highly readable, visually stunning book.
