ABSTRACT
The research’s problem is the limitation in using structure design techniques, especially macrame in Muslim fashion. Based on the observation and interview, decorative elements in Muslim fashion dominated by surface textile techniques, such as embroidery, both by machine or hand embroidery and beads embellishment. Whereas, besides there are opportunities for structural textile design applied to Muslim fashion as decorative elements. The previous study used basic knot patterns and minimal exploration of its concepts, shapes, materials, and color combination. This research aims to develop a decorative element in Muslim fashion products by utilizing the potential of macrame. The experiments were carried out in stages, including the macrame knot pattern experiment and the 3D module experiment using the macrame technique. This study’s output is the implementation of Macrame experiments on Muslim fashion products, which could be a reference for further Muslim fashion research.
