The data collection method was carried out by observation, interviews, and documentation, as well as design design using the Corel Draw 2020 design program. The research resulted in six ready-to-wear semi-couture fashion designs for adult women's evening parties. This fashion collection is named Reminiscence which means lifting the roots of local Balinese culture, namely the Kamasan Wayang dragon.

INTRODUCTION

Concrete evidence of the success of the basic application of the philosophy of unifying comos-theos-anthropos in the life of the Balinese people, resulting in various special names such as Bali Island of the Gods (Bali Island of Paradise), island of a thousand temples, the world's best tourist destination and so on. According to Picard M (2018), Bali, with its unbeatable cultural appeal and stunning natural beauty, is the right location to bridge Indonesian designers' creativity and their international image. Andini et al. (2021) is the highest level of haute couture fashion, namely clothing produced using exclusive materials. Semi-ready-to-wear clothing products are manufactured using high-quality materials and embellishments, requiring the skills of quality workers.

According to Wasis Gunadi (2020), the fashion industry is one of 16 creative industry groups, which contributed 3.76% to Indonesia's national GDP in 2017. The fashion industry is also still one of the largest foreign exchange earners, with an export value as of July 2018 of US$ 8.2 billion (Rp. 122 trillion), which grew 8.7%. Indonesian fashion products are able to control 1.9% of the world market. Business actors in the Fashion Industry are mostly Indonesian Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), totalling almost 60 million people. Indonesia is a high-potential market for textiles and fashion due to stable economic growth and the fourth-highest population in the world. According to the McKinsey Global Institute (Pavitta et al., 2019 in Marini Yunita Tanzil et al. (2021) the number of middle class consumers in Indonesia is estimated to grow from 45 million people in 2010 to 145 million people in 2030 and is one of the keys to economic growth in Indonesia.


Evening parties are party clothes that look luxurious with the types of materials and accessories worn compared to morning party clothes or afternoon parties. According to Darma Putra et al. (2021) evening party clothing is a type of clothing that has special features compared to other clothing. In terms of decoration for evening party clothing, decorations can be added, from glamorous decorations to simple decorations, according to the theme of the party fashion. Evening party clothing is different from clothing for other occasions in terms of colour, material, model, and equipment. Making party clothing explores deep creativity and adds insight into the types of clothing for evening party clothing. A night party is an atmosphere with a theme adjusted by the organizer or host to hold a night party, to liven up the atmosphere. Researchers obtained primary data in the form of photos of the party atmosphere from Mrs. Yenli Wijaya (2023). Evening party clothing is adjusted to the theme being held. The theme is usually prepared according to the event's luxury or classic nature; of course, the invited guests will come to customize their evening party clothing to suit that theme.

The researcher found a field phenomenon of the lack of cultural wisdom of fashion designers in developing the art of Kamasan puppet painting in adult women's evening party clothing (Anak Agung Ngurah & Dewa Ayu Putu, 2021; Tanzil et al., 2022; Themadjaja & Gunadi, 2023). The urgency of this research is to help home industry craftsmen in Bali in producing new designs of ready-to-wear evening party clothing for semi-adult women aged 35 years to 50 years, namely to provide an increase in craftsmen's income compared to ready-to-wear workmanship and hopefully be able to compete in the world market with semi ready-to-wear clothing from outside Bali which is marketed in Bali. The results of the research in the form of concepts and prototypes of new designs are expected to be used as a guide or example by craftsmen in innovating the design of ready-to-ear semi-adult women's evening party clothing products referring to market needs (Amutha, 2021; Derman et al., 2023; Wedanti et al., 2023). If there is no concept or prototype as a design reference, crafters will find it difficult to develop designs that contain elements of novelty that have been seen as monotonous.

Researchers' observations from initial observations in the Sangging-Kamasan-Klungkung-Bali hamlet show that there is a phenomenon, namely the lack of cultural wisdom of fashion designers in developing the art of Kamasan puppet painting in adult women's evening party clothing. Initial data observations of phenomena in the field are supported by data sources that researchers collect as primary data. Researchers collected primary data by interviewing active Balinese designers, namely Mrs. Yenli Wijaya and Mrs. Wahyu. Mrs Yenli Wijaya as a Balinese designer and as the head of IFC Bali (Boutique Yenli-Denpasar-Bali, 08 April 2023) for ready-to-wear semi took the innovation of evening party clothing for adult women with the idea source of wayang Kamasan does not exist at this time, more towards batik Kamasan, chiffon kebaya fabric with wayang Kamasan motif, kebaya with wayang Kamasan motif, souvenir products that start to outerwear, simple dresses and tote bags. There is no Kamasan puppet innovation in evening party clothing.

Researchers see previous research on wayang Kamasan, no one has innovated ready-to-wear adult women's evening party clothing, but different innovations such as the research of I Wayan Mudra (2019) the creation of ceramic works inspired by Balinese wayang motifs, Balinese wayang is one of the traditional motifs that are often chosen in creating these ceramic craft works. Gab research Gede Wira Astawa et al. (2019) produced an Android application and website admin: (1) QR scan application is on Kamasan puppet paintings and displays stories and Android functions to scan QR codes to make it easier for customers to buy Kamasan puppet painting products. Gab research Wayan Sekar Pradnyadari (2022) the final result of this research is the design of fashion product souvenirs in the form of dresses, outers, and tote bags with the application of Kamasan puppet paintings as motifs which are expected to introduce and provide insight into Kamasan puppet paintings.

The urgency of this research is that the weakness in the fashion world is that it does not highlight local cultural motifs and local wisdom. This fashion innovation, researchers highlight local wisdom values so that they can be used or applied by crafters. The results of the research in the form of concepts and prototypes of new designs are expected to be used as a guide or example by crafters in innovating the design of ready-to-wear semi-couture adult women's evening party clothing products referring to market needs.

The state of the art of this research is a concept of ready to wear semi-virtual naga wayang kamasan design innovation for adult women's evening party clothing that can be used as a guide or reference by Balinese fashion designers in innovating ready to wear semi adult women's evening party clothing product designs for the development of Indonesian fashion with Balinese culture.

Researchers look for information related to the phenomenon being studied through research subjects.

CONCLUSION

This study concludes that the ready-to-wear semi-stylized concept for the Dragon Anantabhoga figure in Kamasan puppet paintings is suitable for adult women's evening party clothing, although it still requires cultural innovation from the Kamasan puppet painting art that stylizes the Dragon Anantabhoga figure. The research generated six ready-to-wear semi-couture evening party clothing designs for adult women, named "Reminiscence" to highlight the roots of local Balinese culture, specifically the Kamasan puppet dragon. These six designs were crafted using shimmer silk, Klungkung-Bali woven material, and tulle, with the Kamasan puppet design applied in different positions in each design. In the first group of designs, the Kamasan puppet dragon design is applied to the front position of the chest, circling to the back and returning to the front, while in the second group, the design is applied to woven cloth tucked into the waist resembling a Balinese dancer's fashion shawl. The dress design for all six designs is a dress, with the first group characterized as feminine and sexy, and the second group as feminine and elegant. Dress variations include an Obi.
