During the five days of IN2MOTIONFEST implementation, we have witnessed how modest fashion is not just a style, but also a global movement that brings ethical values, sustainability, and inclusivity. From young designers to well-known brands, all of them show that creativity can go hand in hand with concern for the environment and moral values, and modest fashion can be imposed by various groups in various moments. What we have achieved together over the past five days is extraordinary. But what is more important is to ensure that this achievement does not stop here. IN2MOTIONFEST must continue to live, be developed, expanded, and adopted by the increasing number of parties, "said the Head of the Ministry of Economics and Islamic Finance of Bank Indonesia, Imam Hartono.

This year's IN2MOTIONFEST achievement was recorded by more than 20 fashion shows that presented a total of more than 1,785 collections of 214 designers from within and outside the country. The IN2MOTIONFEST stage consistently displays modest fashion from creativity with the use of wastra which is local wisdom, as well as answering global trends that are increasingly concerned about sustainability and are in line with the implementation of the green economy in the country's modest fashion industry.

In the business realm, business matching has generated a commitment value of more than 8.9 billion rupiahs, including Business Matching Wastra which presents 100 MSMEs wastra, most of which are members of IKRA Indonesia and MSMEs assisted by Bank Indonesia as well as Ministries/Institutions. While the exhibition area is packed with more than 90,955 visitors, who not only see but also buy products, with transactions reaching more than 7.2 billion rupiah. No less important, Clearance Sales for Charity, the program, which was first held at IN2MOTIONFEST, managed to raise funds of more than 150 million rupiah.

During the ISEF and IN2MOTIONFEST, also held FGD sessions and seminars that discussed trend forecasting, innovation and business strategies. From here were born important ideas and recommendations that could strengthen policy direction, industrial strategy, and the role of modest fashion in the economy.

By moving with stakeholders, from craftsmen, MSMEs, designers, academics, industry players, to communities, IN2MOTIONFEST will continue to strive to strengthen the country's modest fashion ecosystem to be able to penetrate the world market. To win the global market, Indonesian fashion modests must be at the forefront and trend setter. The discussion process in the three FGDs involving various stakeholders has created a three main pillars agreement, namely the Modesty, Circular Modest Fashion System, and Regenerative which is the basis of a joint campaign, a collective movement towards a more inclusive, empowered, and meaningful modest fashion future, namely One Campaign, One Movement: "Santuns in Style, Wise in Work" #WearYourPurposes #WastraSastra.

One concrete step of this movement is the publication of the book Modest Fashion Trend Forecasting 2026 2027. This book is a strategic guide for craftsmen, MSMEs, designers, business actors, and communities in creating creative works and sustainable industrial practices. Through this book, Indonesia not only designs styles, but also builds a future of modest fashion with character, ethics, and global competitiveness.

In the series of events closing the 2025 IN2MOTIONFEST, a fashion parade with a touch of wastra was displayed, namely the work of Deden Siswanto, Dian Pelangi, Fomalhaut Zamel, Ilham Bahari x Syafitri Gallery supported by the KPw BI of South Sumatra Province, Irna La Perle supported by KPw BI Tasikmalaya and Tenun
