In conclusion, the costumes designed by Didiet Maulana for the 2024 Paris Paralympics reflect the values of unity and diversity that are intrinsic to the Indonesian nation. The “Sandya Niskala” collection incorporates traditional ikat weaving, geometric patterns inspired by the ocean, and motifs from the Garuda Pancasila emblem. The color scheme, inspired by the national emblem, symbolizes courage, purity, grandeur, and responsibility. The costumes aim to bring energy, renewal, and good hopes for the Indonesian athletes competing in the Paralympics.
