الملخص

This research aims to present a design proposal that achieves the principle of zero loss, by producing an evening top made of lace material by using separate units of lace. Such top is used as an accessory that is matching more than one garment, which gives a different and new look to the clothes and helps to achieve sustainability. The design was produced by using Photoshop program to distribute the lace units in a manner inspired by the principle of self-similarity in fractal geometry to ensure compatibility as an aesthetic aspect of the product. As regards producing the clothing, the lace units were sewn by using the zigzag stitch.
