Pagi-sore / 2in1 kain:

​During the Japanese colonization in Indonesia around 1940s, a motif called Hokokai was created by Pekalongan natives and the Chinese clan. During that period, cotton was very rare because imports of material, such as cotton from Europe and India had drastically reduced. That made it harder for batik producer to produce batik but nevertheless many persisted and turned difficulties into opportunities by producing pagi-sore. Because hand drawn batik is costly, Nyonyas in Indonesia wear mixed stamp and hand drawn batik sarong for daily wear.
