Textile artisan Desak Nyoman Parwati creates a casual dress replete with natural Balinese elements. Leafy motifs are created through a traditional batik dying process, which involves an artistic application of wax along with the tie-dying technique to create complex layers of color. Vibrant indigo and cerulean evoke a seaside feel.

"pretty caftan"
Lovely print and color and dress is very very comfy but be aware it runs HUGE!! I am a m/l and ordered the medium but should have gone w the small. Even after washing and drying on high heat it fits more like a caftan or moomoo. But because it is comfortable, shall keep and wear around the house for summer.
