There is a lot of eco-chatter these days about adaptive reuse and reclaimed materials in green design, particularly in the realm of fashion-forward garments and accessories. Estethica, London Fashion Weeks recent sustainable design showcase featured some great examples of recycled/repurposed materials in designs that are light in footprint but substantial in style. One of the bright young stars of Estethica, Mark Liu, has taken sustainable fashion one step further with his zero-waste fabric patterns and eco-designs that do just that, waste not a scrap of fabric. Lius pieces are yet another example of why Central Saint Martins grads are true innovators, as his next generation of pattern making is both wearable and cutting edge.
