| Abstract [eng] |
Today we can clearly see the damage which is caused by fast fashion production and mass consumption. So it is relevant issue - how to reduce consumption, waste, threat to the environment and human health. Research of the Lithuanian consumers and slow fashion designers approach to eco-friendly and slow fashion products showed that it is necessary to spread ideas of slow fashion widely and teaching users about ecologically friendly clothing. Therefore, in the final Master project was analysed the theoretical and practical slow fashion principles witch are applied for slow fashion designers and according this were created collection ,,Just Share”. The aim of the collection is to spread ideas of slow fashion and adapting them in specific technical projects dealing with the problems of use and production waste minimization and creating sustainable, easily recyclable, environmentally friendly garments. Products for reducing consumption are developed based on the idea of sharing clothing. So garments are one-size and suitable for different type of shapes figures of a men and women. Clothing design inspired by folding, so models have various pleats, unfolds which allow minimal transformation of the garment, which gives the product its individuality and extending time of wearing. Models are designed with minimal amount of accessories and the minimum division lines, maintaining the uniformity of materials and uncomplicated sewing technology. In this way, out of wear garment can be easily remade. Original constructions of the models are based on zero wasted principle. This method reduces waste production. The suitable materials have been chosen after the bending stiffness and angle of folded specimen’s recovery tests. As well as results of Master's project research were presented in the Young Scientists Conference, Industrial Engineering 2015 and published in the scientific journal ,,Environmental research, engineering and management”. So the project is important for further research in the field of slow fashion development. |
