To analyze the relationship between clothing products and accessories which are more predominantly sold and other available clothing and accessories products, a data mining algorithm is used, namely the a priori algorithm. With the help of the tanagra application to carry out the calculation process, the dominant product that consumers are interested in can be determined. By using two variables that meet support and minimum confidence, it can be concluded that the most sold products are from the type of clothing, namely clothes and pants. It was concluded that the results of the known final association rules, if you buy a shirt, you will buy pants with 50% support and 75% confidence. If you buy pants, you will buy clothes with 50% support and 85% confidence.
