Indonesian Batik a la Monsieur Vuitton

Indonesian Batik hits center stage when Kim Jones, the creative director for Vuitton’s men’s line, incorporated Indonesian Batik’s pattern into LV’s mens necessities such as wool-based stole, glove and hat for the recent Autumn/Winter 2014/2015.

As an Indonesian, as well as a Batik and Vuitton aficionado, naturally I am proud and ecstatic to witness that Batik has been applied as a source of inspiration for this handsome collection of the French leading fashion house.

This collection demonstrates the transformation of Indonesian Batik from the world’s fourth most populous country’s national icon and traditional cloth to global status symbol and trendy fashion apparel.

What can be cooler, and warming the body at the same time, than wearing this Batik patterned wool stole with matching hat and gloves a la Monsieur Vuitton?

Saluting Mr Jones for this dashing interpretation of Indonesian Batik into a wearable fashion outfits.

This Batik collection won’t last forever as they have been put on waiting list for not only to Indonesian fashion people but also to the trendy men, and their beautiful spouses, in the world’s fashion capitals, Sydney, Paris, Rome, London, NYC, Tokyo, Jakarta and so on and so forth.

So, why wait further then? Head to your closest LV store!

A little note for Indonesian designers, c’mon guyz, it’s time for you to create wool and cashmere based Batik designs! Put forward your creativity and stay inspiring!
