Baju Kurung Pesak Gantung with Minimal Beadwork for Lil' Sis

This is my next homemade baju kurung pesak gantung. Purposely created for lil' sis (now in Kedah). I got the measurement from her recent baju kurung biasa. For this one, I finished it without trying put on her body.

I put dokoh as accessories on the neck instead of beadwork. The dokoh purposely pin close to neck to have different look. Usually the main dokoh shall be lower (with provided chain). Anyway, this look best while she's not wearing tudung.

Now, I plan to sell accessories - and of course, I am very selective with the design, colour and everything.

Baju Kurung Pesak Gantung with Heavy Beadwork for Ms Aida-from-Wangsa Maju

And, here's the actual baju kurung for Ms Aida. I purposely choose shining-olive-colour because she don't have one. This is a Baju Kurung Pesak Gantung with Kain Selisih Belah (Dalam) - original design from herself.

Of course, beadwork needs to be done. I choose black pearl/beads (big and small size), add light green sequins and some other materials to compliment both colours - light green and black. With free-hair styling person, a heavy beadwork around the neck and chest is appropriate but minimum beadwork on hand (end).

Last night I went to hand over the clothes to her and she out it on. It was just nice (of course, after some alteration). A friend (or maybe a neighbour) suddenly came and saw Ms Aida wearing it. The girl look interested and asked about the cost of beadwork. Well, a sign of potential interest.

Anyway, I like Ms Aida wearing new color. Coinsidently (hope the spelling is correct), she got a kenduri this weekend to attend. Good timing... hehehe..

Baju Kurung Pesak Gantung with Minimal Beadwork for Sister

This is me next project - baju kurung for my sister with smoother fabric. At first, this clothes cut for Ms Aida-from-Wangsa Maju for my trial. Ms Aida gave me the sample baju kurung - it was Baju Kurung Pesak Gantung. This time, the kain style is slightly different. Usual style is kain susun tepi. But, this one is kain belah selisih.

Maybe the fabric (2 meters) for baju is not enough, or maybe I wrongly cut it. It turned out that it doesn't fit for Ms Aida. And no left over fabric to make adjustment. So, I proceed fit my sister's body size. And after my sister tried put it on, it fit nicely.

I asked my sister if she wants some beadwork to be done. She said yes, but with minimum beadwork. So, I just put a one-line-beadwork. Hope she'll like it.

Beadwork: Baju Kurung Shiffon Size 'S'

I bought this ready-made baju kurung quite some time ago. Only recently, I got some idea to improvise it. So, this is the beadwork that I'm using ready-made emboidery (using thread) and I added more beadwork with different material to enhance the blue colour.

Beadwork: Baju Kurung for Ms Aida from Wangsa Maju

 

A request from a friend to have beadwork on her new baju kurung. It was easily done because the fabric (cotton) - which explains the wrinkle all over places (I should iron the dress before the photo shoot). Anyway, it was finished 2 days before she plans to wear it for to attend a wedding ceremony. Glad she like it. *grins

 



Beadwork: highlighted baju kurung from Terengganu

This is the beadwork I've done for a friend's sister (from Terengganu). Basically, I highlighted the existing pattern. It took quite some time to finish it because of the huge area. However, I love it!
