Sarong skirts have made a comeback just in time for summer. So, Vogue has listed some of its best choices.
Take a look at this one...
But we can't help but feel that it bears an uncanny resemblance to something pak ciks might have been wearing for years
Could they have been true trendsetters all this time?
Perhaps fashion doesn't need to cost you a bomb and you can snag yourself a RM20 version from the pasar malam.
Another sarong on the list has also caught our attention
London-based clothing retailer MATCHESFASHION, which sells designer clothing such as Balenciaga, Gucci, and Prada, is offering this ensemble that looks very much like the batik print.
Its psychedelic-floral print is described as "reminiscent of 1960s motifs, evocative of the label's free-spirited aesthetic".
It's called 'Rhode Hannah floral-print ruched cotton mini skirt' and it retails for – wait for it – a mere USD265 (RM1,093).
Welp.
