Abstract

The garment industry has been heavily criticized by human rights organizations and environmental experts for its negative environmental and humanitarian impacts.There are thousands of tons of old clothes that are dumped with waste, harmful to the environment and difficult to dispose of, especially solid materials such as fixed supplements such as sacks and buttons.
The idea is to recycle garments in order to preserve the environment and benefit from this enormous economic wealth.

In order to make optimal use of this tremendous wealth, one must know the nature of these raw materials and the methods of their formulation.
The study aims at recycling fixed clothing accessories into 15 innovative collections of jewelry, and to edit a questionnaire by specialized arbitrators in the field of clothing and textiles. The statistical results show that the designs have been accepted both aesthetically and functionally. The trend towards recycling contributes to the development of fashion clothing and accessories, and open new doors out of the ordinary in the field of fashion، specifically clothing accessories.
