What makes the songket timeless? The classic songket finds its way into current clothing trends without losing its everlasting elegance.
The songket, a piece of cloth that is intricately woven with gold or silver threading, has roots from centuries ago. It is said to have influences from the Arabian or Indian trades as early as the 7th century, from its production techniques to its exquisite thread lines.
Historically a garb only for royalty, the songket is now worn by many across nations such as Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. It is a representation of the culture of the community and worn during significant occasions.
Now, the songket finds its place as an essential bridal wear for a couple during their wedding.
There is a structure within the songket, which we would simplify as the ‘head’, ‘body’ and ‘foot’ of the cloth. Each individual part would feature different designs.
The ‘body’ makes up the main part of the cloth. It contains patterns or motifs different from the ‘head’.
The ‘head’ is the feature panel of the cloth. Its design is fringed by side borders called the ‘pengapit’.
The foot of the cloth is border surrounding the main cloth.
Its concept has been adapted and infused into trendy, modern wear such as dresses, blouses, skirts and many more.
The fusion of the old and the new makes for stunning wedding dresses. Songket designs are harmoniously integrated with current bridal styles, bridging both elements of classic and fashionable, to create a brilliant bridal masterpiece that accents both the bride and the groom.
New and innovative songket designs, fashioned into contemporary and bridal wear, continue to preserve and emphasize the relevance of the classic and classy songket today.
