Creating solutions for fashion Industry factory waste fabrics
I created an installation with garments made from fashion undustry waste fabrics.
They are runway ready, ready to wear. Dresses and a jumpsuit. This fabric was pulled from the waste stream into the use stream.
These fabrics were literally pulled out of dumpsters and all that I couldnt take went to the landfill.
Fashion designer have chosen to allow a lot of fabric to go to the landfills to cause pollution.
It is time, the planet cannot sustain this kind of abuse much longer.
The kind of pollution fashion indusry waste causes it the kind that causes global warming. Ultimatly is causes climate change which expresses its self through severe weather, drenching flooding rains, new unheard of temperatures and drought.
These garments are made with pattern area waste fabrics. These fabrics are the pieces between the intended garment pieces. They are made in stacks of multiple same shape pieces and as you can see they are easily made into wearable garments.
This pattern area cutout fabric goes from the factory cutout tables into dumpsters that are empied into trucks and deposited into land fills
The fashion industry is the third largest pollution causing planetary destruction. This can be changed though the use of these fabrics.
When designers learn to use more of and eventually all of their fabrics, rather than throwing away one third of i the earth and its inhabitants will feel relief..
