Design Disruption: Crafting a Technology that Eliminates Fabric Waste
CALCULATING According to SXD, if all products in the fashion industry were made into zero waste designs, using leftover materials and not wasting any of it, we could potentially reverse climate change in just 5.4 years. This approach can result in a 5% reduction in total emissions, equivalent to 2.4 gigatons of CO2 annually. SXD

Charting a radical new standard that designs elimination of fabric waste, the Shelly Xu Design (SXD) technology uses machine-learning and AI to create patterns that use every scrap of fabric efficiently. Award-winning designer Shelly Xu tells texfash.com how she combines great design with “bleeding-edge” technology.
