Abstract

This study aimed at improving old clothes' using an up-cycle technique: through redesigning, combining, and decorating. The study was broken up into three stages: exploration, design, and embodiment. 30 new fashion designs for blouses and skirts were first categorized into three types (redesigning, combining and decorating design); these were then assessed by 30 fashion design experts. Results showed that all experts gave good scores for each category. Further, this study recommends an alternative way to redesign clothing in order to limit waste.
