| A recent honor was an assignment to design a kebaya for Datin Seri Endon Mahmood Badawi, wife of Malaysia's deputy prime minister. |
| This season some of his kebaya have done away with the traditional front opening and are criss-crossed at the back in corset style. |
| When putting these kebaya on, women discuss their bodies, their sex-appeal, shyness, their wish to please or their need to cover themselves up. |
| While many other designers turned to the west for their influences, Edward stayed true to the kebaya, but revived for modern times. |
| The kebaya is a long-sleeved, fitted lace blouse that is worn over another layer of clothing. |
| Men also wear a sarung, but instead of a kebaya, they wear a long-sleeved batik shirt or a fitted, embroidered jacket. |
