The Challenge (Pain Points) The fashion industry generates over 92 million tons of textile waste each year — and designers often don’t know how to intervene effectively. Working with deadstock or textile remnants presents design, sourcing, and quality challenges that can feel overwhelming. Many emerging designers lack access to reliable deadstock sources and guidance on zero-waste pattern techniques.
