Ketat.
Pas kata jangan.

Yup.
Indonesia is doing it so well & cheaper, earning big money from Singapore & East Asia.

Malays should preserve this as this is their heritage, just like how indian preserve their sarees and chinese with cheongsam

Preserved pls. Ayam love awek wearing see through kebaya. Since ytd dey all keep belanja my eyes im happy.

den u prefer wat? Abaya? Burqa? lel

dont worry peranakan baba nyonya will preserve it

I was at a school function, those nontudungmelayteenagerswearingkebayaandhighheels look really hot and sexy.

Let it die off.
When people don't cherish their roots and prefer to follow foreign culture, then what for maintain it ?

kebaya from indon

not our problem

Kebaya just like other Malay cultural performances, such wayang kulit, Mak Yong, Kuda kepang etc., are dying because of religion extremism arising in this country.

Kebaya user is the majority
If they dun use then who will use

Kebaya quite sexy coz top part got abit see through iirc

It's actually quite contradicting to values in Islam...not surprised the culture slowly dies off, coz since malays themselves think their own culture has less importance than a religion. But I would say write it down in books are put the said garment in museum ...that way they can still teach the young even without having them wear it

Tbh even the younger Chinese also but ours were more to modernization that leads to skimping and skipping of certain traditions or activities like, since more and more are becoming atheist, some traditions were seen as a waste of money due to the absurd amount of preparations and steps needed were quite time consuming...all just to please whatever god but didn't have any blessings in the end

Kebaya comes from indo... #doneclaim

Inside got wear slip one wat

Pointless to preserve if not commercially viable.

Them: Too sexy, haram, aurat, blablabla

Woman: Too fat to fit in kebaya anymore

Taliban Arab wannabe: Kebaya mengakibatkan keibaratan seks

Exactly
People stop wearing kebaya because its hard to look good in one nowadays

Tak guna bertudung kalau pakaian nampak susuk tubuh. Lagi baik kau telanjang dan bersetubuh.

You are right if culture evolved to become more easy, modern and accordance to the needs of 21st century. However, what we’re seeing is the opposite. Certain people are not evolving but regressing instead.

Kebaya is the culture of Malay for centuries. It can evolve into something modern like cheongsam but letting it die is just disrespectful of Malay culture but some people prefer to adopt Arabic culture instead of protecting their own culture !
