This book definitively examines the history of Peranakan women's costumes, highlighting the sarong, kebaya, and baju panjang. It assertively transcends these garments to investigate crucial themes such as language, women's roles, trade, slavery, community, and education. With an impressive array of historical photographs and stunning images from a significant donation to the Peranakan Museum, as well as a private collection, this striking work by independent scholar Peter Lee is an essential reference, backed by thoroughly documented sources.
