Tropicaos: uma coleção com modelagem zero waste

Abstract

When it comes to sustentablity, fashion has been behaving lately as one of the most receptive and propagative of the ideal that compose a way of living that couples up to a social and environmental well being. Even as a great pollutant and natural resources, animals and societal exploiter - specially when it comes to non ocidental countries - fashion is responsible for giving sustentability most of it’s visibility. Said sustainable fashion creation takes many aspects into consideration, so many that the very notion of sustentability is put into question, and so is the real possibility of creating clothes that match said concept. In this sense, this Final Paper proposes a discussion about sustentability and its possibilities when it comes to act up on at least some of of its broad aspects, highlightning Zero Waste, which is the production of no textile waste on the parts cutting stage. Thus, comes the creation of Ânima, a young, casual, and compromised with new ways of living brand. The presented collection, composed by fifteen looks, brings foward the theme Tropicaos, developing clothing pieces through interpretations of the concept of tropical and chaos, relating to the troubled political moment the country is going through. The collection pattern making are wide: offering comfort and a cool style, all the while keeping from producing residue on the cutting stage.
