Indonesia is an archipelago that has so many arts, one of them is dance. Kecak dance is one of Indonesia's traditional dance originating from Bali. Kecak dance has very unique characteristics and different from other Balinese dances. The song or sound that accompanies the performance comes from the voice and shouting "cak cak ke cak" from each dancer. The traditional ornament is one of Indonesia's treasure. Traditional ornaments often found on Indonesian textile such as batik, songket, tenun, ikat. However, teenagers in 2019 are very rarely wearing clothing printed with traditional ornament, they only wear it on certain events even though they are interested in the clothing. Many of teens wear everyday outfits based on trends. From the collected information, only 2 designers used natural dyes on the fabric they used to make the clothes they designed. So, this research produced textiles with painted ornament using natural dyes inspired by kecak dance, which refers to traditional ornament based on the svarga theme in the singularity trend that suits the tastes of teenagers. The methods used in this research are explorative method conducted qualitatively and quantitative.
