Handwoven fabrics, tenun songket is always being a passion for a designer who's appreciate our Malay heritage and culture. Songket is evergreen, wherever you go, songket is the most ultimate beautiful fabric and it ensemble of our Malay Royal. If im not mistaken, certain royal family has their own colour to remark their family. Perak is yellow and sometimes i saw them in light purple or lilac while Pahang is often in green. Well, they can wear any colour, any motif even any types of songket. We have many types such as corak bunga tabur or bunga penuh.
Few years back, i met our fabric specialise cum budayawan, Mak Ungku or Azah Aziz at her residence in PJ to talk about songket. She told me how to preseve songket to make it long last. We can't fold it because it may cause the benang emas damage. The best way is hang it or roll it.

When we talk about songket too...we can see some couple wear it during their wedding day, for akad nikah ceremony or bertandang and some other reservation.
