The present study shows the investigation of variables causing waste in the pattern making process through the examination of common methods of skirt design to ensure the optimal arrangement. Hence, efficiency is boosted during the pattern making phase by removing such variables. In this regard, it is proved the idea of making different skirts designs in the zero-waste approach without changing the skirt design structure. Moreover, the weight of pattern wastepaper is calculated after separating the garment parts from the main layout to evaluate the effect of creating a design regarding waste reduction. The study shows while maintaining the skirt design structure and using the standard pattern methods, appropriate changes are needed for a creative style of skirt design. The results can be used as a guideline to pattern makers and manufacturers for more objective selection and to support the development of zero-waste pattern making methods
