Fashion designers share the responsibility, because they are so remote from the means of production &#8211; usually outsourced to Southeast Asia, Africa or South America &#8211; that their designs reflect few of the practical concerns on the factory floor. Parsons&#8217; <a href=\"http:\/\/zerofabricwastefashion.blogspot.com\/\">Timo Rissanen<\/a> is the proponent for a new form of sustainable fashion design: a &#8220;no-waste approach&#8221; that avoids altogether the 15% waste typical of the industry (read his paper <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kridt.dk\/conference\/Speakers\/Timo_Rissanen.pdf\">here<\/a>). Timo&#8217;s no-waste designs (above and below) show the creative potential of eliminating waste as part of the fashion design process. At heart is a humbling realization: &#8220;Fabric ought to be considered a precious resource once again.&#8221; Timeless designs like these only strengthen his argument. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hyperexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/LeggingsWithPattern.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.hyperexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/LeggingsWithPattern-1024x488.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"LeggingsWithPattern\" width=\"600\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1914\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hyperexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/LeggingsWithPattern-1024x488.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hyperexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/LeggingsWithPattern-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hyperexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/LeggingsWithPattern.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fashion industry is the poster child for un-sustainable practices, as we&#8217;ve already seen from the myriad of social and environmental problems plaguing the cotton trade.
