 Zero Waste Dress ✅

This is a true zero waste dress! It can be made just only with one square ( 150 X 150 ) and cutting out only two circles! In this example the fabric is double sided and in red tomato 🍅 Key colour for spring/summer 2025. 


I proposed myself to make this kind of patterns with simple shapes ( squares, rectangles, circles, etc ) but the goal is always use 100% of the fabric to make fashionable and sustainable clothing!


As fashion evolves, so should pattern making.

Let’s be green 💚

This is a true zero waste dress! It can be made just with 1 rectangle ( 145x114 ) to make an one colour dress or 2 rectangles and then mix the fabrics to have a dress with 2 colours squares or we can play with matte and shine contrast as well.

Since everyone is talking about the color PANTONE 17-1230 TCX | Mocha Mousse, as the color for 2025, I proposed myself to make a pattern and a 3D simulation (with rendering) of an evening dress using this color. So, I opted for a long dress in fine velvet with long fur applied on the V neckline. This is my first render!

I hope you like it! 😃

 In my next post you will find a mini collection I made of basics for materials such as jersey knit, rib and fleece.

I did everything in CLO3D: patterns and simulations for fits.

Then, is possible to export all the patterns for DXF files and work them perfectly in several softwares such as Gerber, Lectra, Audaces, etc.
