However, in the current era, the hijab is not only a covering of genitals, it is also a part of self-identity, life style and fashion in social interactions among society. That's why the hijab increases its function to beautify and value the beauty of its users. The development of the hijab in today's reality can change the way of thinking, the perception of the meaning of the hijab, especially among IAIN Ponorogo students. Saussure semiotic analysis is used to see the phenomenon of the meaning of the headscarf towards female students of IAIN Ponorogo.
