Do you know how much textile we throw away each year?
 

60 billion m2 of the 400 billion we produce annually is left on the cutting room floor. Most of these leftovers end up in Asian landfills, far from sight, far from mind. 15% of the energy and money spent on growing, harvesting, weaving, shipping...etc is spent on NOTHING - aside from polluting. I started to acknowledge my addiction of buy fast fashion and not thinking about the consequences. So I looked for a solution for myself, to still enjoy my identity as a fashion lover, maker and buyer. Here I found zero-waste design and system thinking. A ethical way for the industry and my wardrobe. Waste produced during garment production can be avoided by applying the zero-waste design technique, where designers carefully plan the design so that they utilise the entire textile. No waste in cutting, no pollutants in waters, no factory worker afraid for her life. Through my storytelling performance i hope i can catch your empathy and your morals to acknowledge we can not continue this way and that there is a solution. 

Zero-waste fashion design.
