Baju Cekak Musang is a traditional Malay men's outfit with a distinctive design featuring an upright collar. Unlike the simpler Baju Kurung, the Baju Cekak Musang is usually paired with long trousers and a samping (a piece of cloth worn around the waist).
The upright collar of the Baju Cekak Musang gives it a formal and dignified appearance, making it often worn at official events such as weddings or traditional inaugurations. This outfit is typically adorned with metal-covered buttons, adding a touch of luxury.
The colors chosen for the Baju Cekak Musang tend to be more assertive, such as black, dark blue, or red, symbolizing strength and courage. However, the design remains simple, maintaining the traditional elegance of the garment.
