Materialidad y color en la industria de la moda, en la búsqueda del impacto cero

Abstract

 In this article we aim to review various case studies through which we can locate the main strategies that are central to fashion design proposals in terms of dyeing and printing treatment and which, in a relatively short period of time, have the mission of achieving a radical transformation of the fashion industry. In the first instance, we have tried to identify a series of innovations that are already a reality, to a greater or lesser degree of development and achievement, but which will lead to a substantial change towards more efficient design. For this approach, we have grouped them largely according to one of the following typologies, or a combination of them, and which could be organised on the basis of the following strategies: the use of dyes from food waste, the increase in the use of raw fabrics or especially the reuse of fibres and/or fabrics by upcycling process, the expansion of the supply of natural dyes, and the development of biotechnology applied to the creation of colours.
