Up to this day, the function of scarf as a part of costume, either for dancing or other performances, is commonly used for property. It was a few numbers of studies observing the meaning attached to scarf when it is worn by the performer, or in other context. Meanwhile, the story of Sri Asih in its movie can construct new meaning related to the presence of the scarf. This research is using qualitative and descriptive way.
