☆ PLANNING ☆

specific

Make a clothing line that sells up cycled clothing, open a shop on shoppe that sells the clothing that I made. All the products in the clothing line are made by me, I will sew and design the clothing my self. The goal of this project to so reduce the use of fast fashion.

measurable

To keep track of my progress I made a journal, in the journal I put in what I needed to do and what I have done; I would also put in evidence of what I had done. My supervisor also helped me a lot by reminding me if I haven’t fully completed my work.

achievable

Since I have a major procrastination problem, I made lots of to-do lists and I would stick them around my room or, put the to-do list as my phone wallpaper so I can always be reminded to do my work. I also put up timers so I can be reminded to do my work.

realistic

The goal for my project is to lessen the use of fast fashion. I know that my small business won’t make a huge impact on the big scale, but if one person buys my products it means that I have succeeded in lessening the use of fast fashion even if it’s just one product.

Time-bound

Like I said earlier I have a huge procrastination problem which obviously got in the way because I started making the products when semester exam started so I was busy the whole week. But thankfully I can work fast and since I already have prior knowledge on how to use a sewing machine, I got my work done on time.

☆LEARNING☆

ATL skills

Thinking skills

I needed my thinking skills to come up with design ideas to make the clothing, which is very important because the whole project really relies on my creativity skills so I could come up with a good design so that people would actually buy the clothes that I sell

Self-Management skills

My self management skills are very important when it comes to making the product. I need this skill to avoid procrastination and do my work properly..

Creating the product

When making the product I sew and design the products myself. I did get a little help from my mom when I was in the sewing process, but my mom mostly gave me directions other than that I did everything by myself.

The Product

After I had all the clothes done I did a mini photo shoot by myself in my room afterwards I made a shop on Shoppe and I put all the clothes that I designed there.

☆Reflecting☆

Challenges

Time management: When I was stuck and didn’t have any other ideas for desgins I often got unmotivated to do my work and to fix this I would set up alarms so that I would get reminded to do my work.

Impact

Personal

This project definitely impacted me a lot because when I was starting this project I was actually worried that I wouldn’t do good or that I would not get any customers and that nobody will like my designs. But it didn't. I got good feedback from my friends and someone actually bought my clothes. I'm really happy I did this project, because it helped me Improve my self esteem and helped me improve my time management skills.

Community

I would like to think that this project made at least one person be more aware of fast fashion because I didn’t only sell clothes but I also spread awareness during my promotion. I promote my products on tiktok and some of the videos actually got a lot of views and likes so I think that some people are more aware of the problem now.
