Abstract

As the discipline of fashion design desperately tries to remake itself more sustainable through the introduction of transparency in supply chains, ecological materials, and various modes of recycling and circularity, the question remains if these initiatives have enough impact to make a difference as the markets of fashion keep growing. Across the design field, there have been calls for more fundamental changes to the discipline. One such approach runs under the banner of Transition Design. This paper applies a perspective of Transition Design to fashion design to unpack a series of arenas where change has to happen in fashion design. Using the Transition Design framework, the following text paraphrases levels, systems approaches, and points of concern and translates them to the context of fashion. This endeavor aims to show how possible synergies may arise between these seemingly disconnected parts and how fashion educators can grapple with some of these complex issues, scales, and systems in order to push students to explore more pluralistic avenues of success and test how fashion intersects with the social realms.

摘要

随着时装设计学科拼命地试图通过供应链、生态材料以及各种回收和循环模式的透明度来重塑自身的可持续性，问题仍然是，这些举措是否具有足够的影响力，能够随着市场的变化而产生影响。时尚不断发展。在整个设计领域，有人呼吁对该学科进行更根本性的改变。其中一种方法是在过渡设计的旗帜下运行的。本文将转型设计的视角应用于时装设计，以揭示时装设计中必须发生变革的一系列领域。使用过渡设计框架，以下文本解释了层次、系统方法和关注点，并将它们转化为时尚的背景。
