dc.description.abstract	The purpose was to research methods for creating a sustainable little girls’ garment by upcycling menswear (e.g., button-down shirt and ties). Specific elements of sustainability focused on include zero-waste and garment adjustability to increase useful lifespan. The market analysis invoked a secondary goal: a bifurcated design. Lindqvist’s (2013) experimental patternmaking technique of kinetic garment construction was chosen for experimentation in conjunction with upcycled textiles as his cutting and wrapping methods may be adaptable for creating upcycled and zero-waste garments.
