Summer is my favorite time of year. As the weather gets hotter, we wear less clothing, and finding the right fabric/material is key. Like most, I like to feel cool and comfortable. This is easily achieved by dresses that allow air to penetrate through them. The Bali Fashions line does an incredible job of attaining that cool airy feel! The dresses are light, easy to put on, and don't stick to your skin for those scorching summer months. Last summer I wore several dresses from the Glam Temptress Series nearly every day in Bali. They were far more suitable than... Continue reading

Not only is it important to look good in our dresses, it is essential to keep your clothing in good condition in order to preserve the quality and appearance (for more than one summer use). That's why we've dedicated this specific post on how to care for your Balinese Fashions dress. When washing your dress, be sure to hand wash separately in cold water and hang to dry. It's crucial to hand wash each dress individually because the dyes used may bleed onto other clothing. However, the color will still remain intact after numerous washes. After washing, hanging the dresses... Continue reading

The dresses that make up the Bali Fashions collection originate from Bali, an Indonesian island located between Java and Lombok. The island is home to the vast majority of Indonesia’s small Hindu minority. It is the largest tourist destination in the country, and is renowned for its highly developed arts. The strong influence of Hinduism can be seen in Balinese textiles. Flowers, nature, and animal print are common Batik themes often incorporated into clothing. The Bali Fashions line is handmade in Kuta by very gifted craftsmen, and consists of two collections: The Glam Temptress Series and the Tropical Goddess Series.... Continue reading
