CHOICE Review

Rissanen (Univ. of Technology, Sydney, Australia) and McQuillan (Delft Univ. of Technology, Netherlands) provide a comprehensive guide to zero-waste fashion design techniques that eliminate textile waste for more sustainable fashion moving forward. This second edition expands on the original (2016) by incorporating 3D design software, new flat patterning approaches for zero waste, and a deeper historical context tracing the evolution of zero waste globally. The authors clarify the related technique of subtraction cutting and include color illustrations demonstrating cutting methods. Several chapters feature interviews with designers successfully using zero-waste techniques. The final chapters offer practical advice on implementing zero waste in manufacturing and getting started with these sustainable design methods. Overall, the book uses step-by-step instructions with color illustrations, flat pattern samples, and easy-to-understand explanations to make zero-waste fashion accessible for designers at all skill levels who want to incorporate more sustainable practices. A valuable resource for all fashion designers and makers. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty; professionals, students in two-year programs. --Kathryn Wagner, Western Michigan University
