Mind Mapping:

Mind mapping is looking for patterns and insights in a large quantity of data we collected during

our exploration of what is the current reality. The goal is to establish criteria for the what-if idea

generation phase. Which comes next.

I had selected sustainability Garment Making for this assignment. I am working at Garment

Company. Before we used to make garments from normal fibres. But now we creating

sustainable garments. What are the challenges I faced to make the sustainable garments? I am

explaining as below.

Challenge:

Garments must overcome multiple challenges to ensure it creates a secure sustainable fabric

garments as a product while remaining aesthetically pleasing to the customer. The most

pressing challenges include:

 Sustainability

 Fashion

 Recognition

 Distribution

 Freshness

 Impressions

 E-commerce

 Rising costs

Selection:

Selection of the fabric, design size and quality were most difficult at that time because there

were several different choices in all over store. Each having their own benefits and drawbacks.

Cotton bags such as the ones in this photo are biodegradable. Fabric choice will be determined

by purpose of the bag and our budget. We might choose Fairtrade organic cotton for a planet-

friendly garments and we can choose from a range of weights starting at 4oz and going up to

7oz but our budget might only lend itself to a mid-range weight. The heavier and thicker the

fabric, the more expensive it is. So we have selected recycle cotton fabric.

Application:

Starting our first bag project can feel like a huge task, an exciting adventure or complicated and

could leave we unsure on where to start, which is probably why we are here! Let us help us

with this simple guide that will outline each stage of the garment manufacturing process that

leads to delivery of our garment.

Recycle cotton has many advantages, such as its ability to control moisture, insulate, provide

comfort and it is also hypoallergenic, weather-proof and is a durable fabric. Cotton is naturally

absorbent and doesn't show perspiration like synthetics do and it helps keep you dry naturally.

Insight:

Every project starts with a sketch or mood board that includes bag inspiration and preferences.

To make a bag we may have a garment we want to replicate and make our own? This started

off as a sketch at some point.

We can send us a rudimentary drawing of a garment that is annotated to explain what it is we

are looking for and we can formalise that for us with a design visual that incorporates

suggestions and alternatives if required.

Other considerations at this stage include defining what the garment is for, what will its

purpose be? Who will use it? This is the foundation of an idea that helps determine the best

fabric for the garment or the best fastening to close the garment.

Approach: Perhaps the most common way to plan out a recycle garment project, the Waterfall

method is a simple sequential approach. Each project phase must be completed before

beginning the next one, leading to the end deliverable. These project plans can be easily

replicated for future use.
