New Miss Nyonya Rita gallery
"Do you remember Miss Nyonya Rita? Several times, she posed in the Emerald Belt for the camera of 'WajahAsia'. She traveled across Java, from east to west, in her beautiful Indonesia. This lady from Bandung dressed in both modern and classical kebayas, posed in short and long sarongs, and wasn’t shy about presenting sarongs from the early tempo doeloe era.
She also gave attention to bikinis, lingerie, and summer clothing made of Indian cotton and silk. A selection of her photos may be presented here by WajahAsia. Oh, 'Miss Nyonya Rita' is her modeling pseudonym for her WajahAsia photo gallery. You won’t find her under this name on the internet."
Tempo Doeloe
The time span is also described as Tempo Doeloe (Tempo Dulu) the years between 1870 and 1914, the old days of the past.There is a difference between female and male clothing. Years ago the Balinese wore nothing for their upper body, but nowadays the women waer Kebaya, Indonesian National Ladies Costume, and the men wear a shirt with a collar.
In that period they were mainly Balinese women in the countryside and in Sri Lanka who did not cover the upper body. The appearance of Balinese clothing has changed, but the value that it offers as a symbol to honor Sang Hyand Widhi remains unchanged. The traditional clothing is very easy to wear and there are numerous stores where you can buy this clothing.

Ao Dai Traditional Vietnamese costume
The áo dài is a Vietnamese national costume, now most commonly worn by women.
In its current form, it is a tight-fitting silk tunic worn over pantaloons. The word is pronounced in the North and in the South. Áo classifies the item as a piece of clothing. Dài means "long". The word "ao dai" was originally applied to the outfit worn at the court of the Nguyễn Lords at Huế in the 18th century. This outfit evolved into the áo ngũ thân, a five-paneled aristocratic gown worn in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Inspired by Paris fashions, Nguyễn Cát Tường and other artists associated with Hanoi University redesigned the ngũ thân as a modern dress in the 1920s and 1930s.
The updated look was promoted by the artists and magazines of Tự Lực văn đoàn as a national costume for the modern era. In the 1950s, Saigon designers tightened the fit to produce the version worn by Vietnamese
women today. The dress was extremely popular in South Vietnam in the 1960s and early 1970s. On Tết and other occasions, Vietnamese men may wear an áo gấm, a version of the ao dai made of thicker fabric. Academic commentary on the ao dai emphasizes the way the dress ties feminine beauty to Vietnamese
nationalism, especially in the form of "Miss Ao Dai" pageants, popular both among overseas Vietnamese and in Vietnam itself. "Ao dai" is one of the few Vietnamese words that appear in English-language dictionaries.

Ao Yem Vietnamese costume
A yếm (Vietnamese: is a traditional Vietnamese bodice used primarily as an undergarment that was once worn by Vietnamese women across all classes. There exists a modern variant called the áo yếm, but the historical garment was simply called a yếm. It was most usually worn underneath a blouse or overcoat, for modesty's sake. It is a simple garment with many variations from its basic form, which is a simple, usually diamond or square-cut piece of cloth draped over a woman's chest with strings to tie at the neck and back.
The yếm originated from the Chinese dudou, a variant of similar undergarments used in China since antiquity whose use spread under the Ming and Qing dynasties. It became popular in northern Vietnam. Unlike other Vietnamese clothing that helped to segregate the classes, the unseen yếm were worn as an undergarment by Vietnamese women of all walks of life, from peasant women toiling in the fields to imperial consorts. It is an integral part of the áo tứ thân costume, which it is often worn underneath. The skirt which is worn with the yếm is called váy đụp.

Batik Javanese Traditional and Indonesia costume
Batik is a cloth that is traditionally made using a manual wax-resist dyeing technique. Javanese traditional batik, especially from Yogyakarta and Surakarta, has notable meanings rooted to the Javanese conceptualization of the universe. Traditional colours include indigo, dark brown, and white, which represent the three major Hindu Gods (Brahmā, Vishnu, and Śiva). This is related to the fact that natural dyes are most commonly available in indigo and brown. Certain patterns can only be worn by nobility; traditionally, wider stripes or wavy lines of greater width indicated higher rank. Consequently, during Javanese ceremonies, one could determine the royal lineage of a person by the cloth he or she was wearing.
Other regions of Indonesia have their own unique patterns that normally take themes from everyday lives, incorporating patterns such as flowers, nature, animals, folklore or people. The colours of pesisir batik, from the coastal cities of northern Java, is especially vibrant, and it absorbs influence from the Javanese, Arab, Chinese and Dutch cultures. In the colonial times pesisir batik was a favourite of the Peranakan Chinese, Dutch and Eurasians.

Geisha Fashion
The forerunners of the female geisha were the teenage odoriko
("dancing girls"): expensively trained as chaste dancers-for-hire. In the 1680s,
they were popular paid entertainers in the private homes of upper-class samurai,
though many had turned to prostitution by the early 18th century.
Those who were no longer teenagers adopted other names—one being "geisha", after the male entertainers.
The first woman known to have called herself geisha was a Fukagawa prostitute, in about 1750.
She was a skilled singer and shamisen-player named Kikuya who was an immediate success, making female geisha extremely popular in 1750s Fukagawa.
As they became more widespread throughout the 1760s and 1770s, many began working only as entertainers (rather than prostitutes) often in
the same establishments as male geisha.
