Each skirt is crafted from traditional Indonesian lurik fabric, woven by artisans on non-mechanical ATBM looms. This slow, traditional weaving process gives every piece its own subtle character and texture, while helping preserve generations of Indonesian craftsmanship and support the artisans who continue to practice it.
Designed to be both beautiful and easy to wear, the skirt features an elasticated back waistband that comfortably adapts to a range of sizes.
Measurements:
Skirt length: 34.6 in / 88 cm
Tulle hem: an additional 3.9 in / 10 cm
Approximate total length including tulle: 38.6 in / 98 cm
Waist: 29.1–40.9 in / 74–104 cm
Because of the flexible elastic waistband, the skirt can comfortably adapt to different body shapes and sizes.
The lurik fabric is pre-washed and dried before sewing, helping prevent shrinkage.
Caring for Your Lurik
To preserve the color, texture, and life of your skirt:
Wash gently using a mild or fabric-specific detergent.
Avoid soaking for long periods.
Dry in the shade and avoid prolonged direct sunlight.
Made slowly, woven traditionally, and created to celebrate the beauty of Indonesian craft.
Every Banda Bags creation is truly one-of-a-kind, handcrafted with care and intention.
