Tengkuluk is one of the traditional clothing equipment (head cover) of a Bundo Kanduang (biological mother) in the Minangkabau tribe. Currently tengkuluk is rarely used in everyday life, only used in traditional events or other official activities. This reality encourages the creation of this tengkuluk work to be carried out. The method of creating works used consists of three stages, namely experimentation, reflection, and formation. The result of the creation of this work shows that the tengkuluk made with woven techniques and pandan leaf material and decorated with Swarovski looks practical and flexible when used by mothers and teenagers in their daily lives. This new creation in the form of the Koto Gadang tengkuluk expresses the meaning of philosophical values, namely the responsibility of women when they have married.
Indonesia has an extraordinary wealth of cultural arts, one of which is the Gringsing woven fabric in Bali. The beauty of Gringsing weaving attracts the author to apply it to bag products as an aesthetic element. This design aims to design a women's bag with a fringe model through a combination of Grinsing weaving elements. This design uses the method of creation, namely: exploration, design, and realization stages. In addition, the design also pays attention to the approach to practical functions, themes/styles, ergonomics, and aesthetics. This design resulted in five designs of women's bags with fringe bag models with the application of Gringsing woven fabric, namely fringe tote bags, fringe slingbags, fringe backpacks, fringe handbags, and fringe waist bags. Of the five designs, two designs were realized into women's bag products, namely the fringe sling bag and backpack models. Through the design of creative bags that use motifs on Gringsing woven fabrics, can produce unique and distinctive typical creations that reflect Indonesian culture.
