ABSTRACT
Semi-formal suit clothing is a type of fashion that aims to support the appearance of someone with a more functional value that can be worn at formal and informal events. Semiformal suit clothing has more varied designs, motifs, and colors. In Indonesia, more traditional woven fabrics such as Lurik are used to make ready-to-wear clothes including semi-formal suits. In the past, Lurik fabric was used to make traditional suits, or beskap, and kebaya for abdi dalem of Kraton Yogyakarya. Some Lurik craftsmen are still using traditional methods in weaving, resulting in fixed dimensions for each fabric. However, there is a significant amount of Lurik fabric wastage from the cutting process that can be avoided to optimize the use of fabric. Based on these conditions, it is necessary to create a semi-formal suit with Lurik woven materials that can minimize the fabric waste by combining basic patterns with zero-waste fashion methods.
