This project explores the creative and sustainable possibilities of incorporating pearl embellishments into denim corsets and upcycling old jeans into skirts. Through a combination of traditional craftsmanship and innovative design thinking, this research aims to revitalize the aesthetic and functional potential of denim while promoting sustainable fashion practices. The use of pearls as a decorative element adds a touch of luxury and sophistication to the denim corsets, while the upcycling of old jeans into skirts reduces waste and supports a more circular fashion economy. This project contributes to the growing body of research on sustainable fashion and textile design, highlighting the potential for creative innovation and environmental responsibility in the fashion industry. The project involves the development of a range of denim prototypes, each incorporating sustainable design principles and innovative production methods. The prototypes are designed to showcase the potential of crafted denim to reduce environmental impacts, while also promoting sustainable fashion practices. The project also involves the development of a sustainable denim production system, which integrates sustainable design principles, innovative production methods, and circular economy thinking. The outcomes of this project contribute to the development of sustainable and innovative denim designs, production methods, and systems. The project's findings have implications for the fashion industry, policymakers, and consumers, highlighting the potential of crafted denim to promote sustainability and reduce environmental impacts.
