The study studied information on the concept and process of designing woven handicraft products using weaving patterns with community participation. The results of the consumer sample survey found that when choosing a bag, the price, brand, shape, size, pattern, black tone, and durable material were taken into account. The results of the survey selected the type of bag that was appropriate for the usage. The researcher designed the bag based on the needs of the consumers. One collection was designed, consisting of 5 items: a large shoulder bag, a small shoulder bag, a tote bag, a crossbody bag, and a wallet. The main color tone was black. The materials used were black fabric and leather. The weaving pattern was a two-tone black and white alternating pattern. Silver accessories were used to be consistent with the Quiet Luxury trend (VOGUE, 2021). Three collections were designed, consisting of 5 items, and one collection was selected, adjusted according to the suggestions of experts, to be used in the production of a prototype. The evaluation results of the draft of the bag design made from sedge for Generation Y men found that the draft with the highest evaluation score was the draft of Collection 2, which was evaluated at a very appropriate level with an average score of 4.53 and a standard deviation of 0.69.
