Based on the present need for change in the garment industry, multiple solutions for waste reducinghave been established. It has become common to associate fashion with pollution, and this association has itsroots in the statistical data that constantly raise red flags regarding the negative impact that our everydaytextiles have over the planet. The following paper has been developed under the strict rules that the zero wastepattern drafting has, keeping in mind the design and product finishing matters. Further possible issues have beentaken into account whilst defining and shaping the pattern pieces, aiming to obtain a product that is framed byproper aesthetics, fit, zero waste drafting technique and quality finishing. The way in which the wastemanagement can be kept under control from the pattern drafting step is the key to gaining a sustainable clothingitem. Apart from the fabric scraps, the time and energy needed for sampling can also be optimized, by using thevirtual prototyping opportunity. These two crucial elements, combined, led to garments that can last in time.The nexus of the garment manufacturing techniques that have increased in popularity lately has been elaboratedin the following paper, following the process accordingly, shaping into a number of digital clothing items. Themethod used can be successfully implemented by clothing manufacturers that wish to adopt a healthy and nonpollutive process.
