Hiya Dave,
Interesting indeed. If I were an Abdi Dalem, I surely wouldn't want to catch myself 'dressed' in a t-shirt during palace ceremonies.
I am almost positive that Bali has its own style of sheath compare to its Javanese counterpart. But is there any difference of ladrang and gayaman from Solo and Yogyakarta?
