My favourite part of the museum was this miniature evening dress, made of silk jersey from the 1950s. I think that the incredible detail of all the pleats are what really excited me about this garment, Im currently really into layered pleating and I've tried making a few skirts already, which makes me aware of the attention that's needed for such a intricate garment.

My favourite part of the exhibition was this silk dress from Vivienne Westwood in 2012 for opera diva Joyce DiDonato. I loved this dress since, I am a fashion student and Its Vivienne Westwood, and also because I love layered clothing, I love to see the depth of the skirt and how the clothes drape and the contrast between the tight waist and the dramatic bust and hip.

A fit for purpose lecture, also a lot of
the information was related to
what I had picked up throughout
project 1b, however, he went
into detail about all saints
increasingly using 3d
software's for design and the
benefits of that when it comes
to sustainability during the
fitting process, which I
thought was quite interesting.

Fashion enter is a UK based, non profit social enterprise. It is a factory that produces clothing for many well known brands, and some high end brands, they also have programmes for educating and provide youth struggling with finding jobs.

The part of this trip that interested my the most was the upstairs area of the factory (which we weren't allowed pictures off), this area was where the clothing for higher end companies were made, loving sewing myself being able to have a sneak peak into these lines was so exciting to me, even the downstairs area, seeing people sew so efficiently was of interest to me.

I wanted my high end comp shop to be a brand that I had a genuine interest in, so I ended up at the base store, I had a good store experience, the staff was helpful, finding the price tags for my comp shop picture was a pain since they insisted on hiding them.

# data[].attributes.body
My experience at weekday was also good, there wasn't staff as ready to help you, as its a bigger, busier and less high end brand so the customer experience is expected to be a little less in your face, however, when I asked for help with finding a denim jacket staff was very happy to help. I did struggle with finding a denim jacket that would be similar to my bape comp (since I went to the bape store first), I thought it would be something easy too find it wasn't, I ended up with an orang denim jacket since it was all they had.

In this task we had to change the location of the fart around the garment and trace the resulting shape.

I really struggled with understanding the work with the darts on Thursday, it took a lot of explaining and more explaining for me to even slightly get to grips with what we are doing, I understand what darts are, their purpose and positioning, my issue was the task and what the purpose was isn’t computing in my brain, I am going to revisit it again this week just so I can be more confident with it.

Our group decided we would approach the group fit project by each taking one garment that had a fit issue, at first I was going to do a skirt, (I ended up doing my jeans and passing the skirt to one of my team members), but before this decision was made I did measure up the skirt according to a size spec that I had to research and find myself as, the canvas page only had specs for shirts and trousers. This Is the spec I used.

I used this website which grades and researches the sustainability and ethics of a brand, although it was good for some basic knowledge, some aspect such as employee treatment, they only had information given by weekday themselves and its therefore, les reliable.

Street fashion brand Weekday is working to become fully circular. More than a third of its jeans collection already meets The Jeans Redesign guidelines, while their AW23 collection is due to reach 60%.

What they do

Weekday - part of the H&M Group - is a street fashion brand for and by the creative generation.

In 2023, the company produced 40% of its jeans portfolio according to The Jeans Redesign durability durability Jeans Redesign The ability of a product, component or material to remain functional and relevant when used as intended. requirements and circular design. The Jeans Redesign guidelines encourage leading brands, mills, and manufacturers to transform the way jeans are made. guidelines, making advancements in

To meet The Jeans Redesign guidelines Weekday increased testing to secure 30 home laundries, and described a deepening of knowledge about fabric strength and washes, as well as how to improve durability and colour fastness. In doing so, Weekday designed and made jeans that are made to be used more.

The company is now beginning to apply the principles to redesign its other denim garments, such as shirts and skirts. In line with making jeans from safe and recycled or renewable inputs, since 2022, Weekday Jeans implemented an internal requirement to use a minimum of 20% recycled content per product, across 100% of their total denim garment output.

"The Jeans Redesign project guided us in the next important step, to prepare our jeans for a circular life. It started as a small capsule in 2021"

described Sustainability Lead, Ulrika Jakobsson. The brand is working to implement circular design thinking and approaches through its value chain, from the design stage, to product care, and end-of-use.

Ulrika Jakobsson continues, "we see the work towards circular denims as a continuous process and are constantly searching for better alternatives to improve."

Why it's an example of the circular economy

To achieve a circular economy circular economy A systems solution framework that tackles global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution. It is based on three principles, driven by design: eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials (at their highest value), and regenerate nature. we have to change the way we look at product development. Waste needs to be designed out at the drawing board stage, and products designed to be durable (that they can be used more), deconstructable (so that the materials they contain can be reused in other garments), and made from safe, and recycled or renewable inputs .

By taking circularity upstream to the design stage, in jeans and across its portfolio, and by working to implement a minimum of recycled content input, Weekday can minimise waste and keep materials in circulation at their highest value.

What's more, the fact that more than 40% of its 2023 collection is now produced in line with circular principles shows that it is possible to scale the design and production of jeans that are durable, recyclable, made using materials and processes. The progress made by Weekday to embed circular design in its collection demonstrates that circular design can become the norm.
