Research on zero waste garment engineering design in sustainable environment

Abstract

With life becoming more convenient and rich, the pollution caused by human beings is far beyond our imagination. This study focuses on the clothing industry, which is closely related to human life, and its ecological pollution and waste of resources. It attempts to combine environmental issues to create clothing that can convey the concept of a sustainable environment and a more friendly Earth 2050: The Future of Energy. Different from the previous green environmental protection design, the current fashion trend is not only to promote environmental protection, but also to emphasize blue economy. In environmental protection, find out the industrial and economic values that meet various costs to achieve sustainable operation. In this study, the concept of environmental sustainability is brought into the clothing project. The goal is that the manufacturing process will not produce cloth waste. All cloth will go through the life course of clothing. The clothing project of “zero waste”will be built. The consumed resources will be fully utilized. In this research design, water resources, which is the most threatening issue of human sustainable environment, are used as the main design axis with blue as the image. Pollution and optimization issues faced by water resources are applied to clothing design thinking, presenting a series of clothing with zero waste structure, and implementing good behaviors of “sustainable” environment in life.
