Abstract

Zero waste fashion design is a way and at the end of the pattern designing process occurs no cut-and-sew waste. Modular fashion design is a process in that one garment can have the appearance of different designs which can be modified by the consumer. The zero waste fashion design and modular fashion design are considered together as a multiple design methodology to supply sustainable fashion production. Although both design techniques are completely unique, the common aim of sustainability design results can be reached through the combination of the two. In this study, a collection was designed by integrating these two design methodologies: zero waste and modular fashion. If consumers have an active role in the sustainable design process, the responsibility for sustainable fashion design falls partially on them. The consumer is one of the three pillars of sustainable design philosophy, so they have a major role in helping create a balance on the sustainable fashion production and a sustainable fashion market. Thanks to this harmony, the design process should consider consumer-centered design options and consumer demands. In this study, an experimental development practicing method via modular and zero waste fashion design methods were used to create a suggested collection. At the end of this study, three garments were designed for that suggested collection, and each can be worn in three or four different looks. © (2023). All Rights Reserved.
