Malay Baju Kurung Gallery

baju kurung - traditional malay costume picture

The Malay Baju Kurung gallery below will help those new to the Malay female traditional costume observe the various styles and patterns worn by the ladies of Pahang and Malaysia.

The Malay traditional dress for women -- the baju kurung -- is exquisite in that while the form (long sleeves and long shirt with sarong) may be the same, the design, fabrics pattern, worn together with suitable embroideries and accessories, can be suited to make it beautiful and charming to the wearer.

As the baju kurung can be worn in many ways, it is up to the wearer or person to make it attractive and stylish.

She can wear accessories, modern or traditional, to give added glow and warmth to the traditional costume.

It can be her head-dress, necklaces or the laced shawl or selendang that she puts on her shoulders or that covers her head.

So, whenever you attend a Malay traditional wedding, just observe the baju kurung worn by the bride, or the people who come to the wedding.

O you Children of Adam! We have bestowed raiment upon you to cover your shame, as well as to be an adornment to you.
But the raiment of righteousness -- that is the best. Such are among the signs of God, that they may receive admonition.
Al-Quran: 7:26

O Children of Adam! Wear your beautiful apparel at every time and place of prayer: eat and drink : but waste not by excess, for God loves not the wasters.
Al-Quran: 7:31
