Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to achieve one garment with multiple uses, reduce waste and increase the fun of clothing design.
Design/methodology/approach
Through the comparison of the structural design of windbreaker with the structural design of suit and other coats, find out the similarities and differences between them in the structure then provide a reliable theoretical basis for the combination and transformation of the two; and then start with the structural theory of men's windbreaker, from the detail structure and the structure. The optimization design of the overall structure, the application of mathematical theory to establish a regular structure design method, so that it can be split through the zipper combination into men's suits or other coats. Finally, from the perspective of technology, the functional transformation from men's windbreaker to men's casual suit and other coats is completed in terms of style, structure and technology.
Findings
Through reasonable clothing structure design and invisible zipper layout, one type of clothing can be used as multiple types of clothing.
Originality/value
A new fashion design method is proposed to minimize the waste of fashion design process.
