Summary:The aim of this research is firstly to create a new motif from Kembar Mayang and Ronce. Secondly, process Keci Beling leaves and honey mango leaves into batik colors. Lastly, find suitable clothing from these motifs. The method of this research is research and development, from processing cultural and natural resources, and then questioning the public about the suitability of the fashion function. The Kembar Mayang and Ronce motifs are interpretations of cultural objects always present in traditional Javanese wedding ceremonies. Kembar Mayang symbolizes the eternal love of the bride and groom.
