The problem discussed in this article is the development of women’s clothing in Java. What cultural influences does Kartini’s kebaya have? This research aims to determine the development of Javanese women’s clothing, especially the Kartini kebaya. The relevance of this research is related to the existence of Kartini’s kebaya as an Indonesian icon. The research method used is a historical method that begins by collecting data related to Javanese women’s clothing, both from temple reliefs, statues, contemporary foreign news, and developments in Javanese women’s clothing. The research results show that Javanese women’s clothing has developed along with the meeting of Javanese culture with foreign cultures that came to Java. The foreign nations that influenced the development of the kebaya in Java were the Arabs, Chinese, Portuguese, and Dutch.
