Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The Fashion industry is contributed increasingly for the high levels of disposal of textile materials. The liners systems of fashion production raise serious ecological problems; the solution involves the adoption of design prin- ciples supported by the concept of Cradle-to-Cradle concept, which defends cir- cular systems that aim to increase the life cycle of products and materials. Thus, the objective of the project is to create sustainable solutions to post-consumer textiles disposal problems according to the kintsugi philosophy and within the scope of the circular economy concept. To uphold this, fashion clothing textile reuse techniques were developed. For this, the methodology of the Design Thinking – Evolution 6 was used, supported by an exploratory study of the dis- posable habits of the potential target audience. A market study was created us- ing a questionnaire to elaborate on clothing disposal habits. As a source of in- spiration, the Kintsugi philosophy was used, and studies of artisanal techniques and upcycling were used to develop clothing mini-collection and made. A video was made to publicize the collection.
