Abstract. The article is devoted to finding solutions to environmental problems in the field of fashion design. In the study, the authors present a scientific review of modern methods of innovative form making of clothing and an analysis of experimental cutting techniques. The author’s approaches in the cut were chosen with a focus on maximum saving of natural resources, humanization of design principles to create a comfortable environment. Comfort conditions are considered both for the body and for the emotional state of a person. The authors of the study characterize the “zero waste” method in the context of the relationship between modern principles of ecological form making of clothing and the philosophy of the traditional cut of the Japanese costume. The key points of the methodology for ecological design of a modern costume based on a harmonious combination of experimental and associative-figurative types of form making of emotionally comfortable clothing are defined. The article describes the methods of greening of project activities, which were used in the author’s practices of famous designers when creating costume collections. In this paper, a comparative analysis of the use of new ecological principles of shaping and classical techniques for harmonizing the shape of a suit in the world practice of well-known fashion designers is carried out. The characteristics of traditional and innovative cutting techniques are presented. The authors determine the main criteria for the significance of environmental approaches based on the results of using the methods of a retrospective study of environmental practices in the late 20th century — early 21st century. The authors substantiate the promising methods of “upcycling” and “zero waste” as the most universal principles of ecological form making of exclusive clothing at the present stage of design development. The main features of the ecological cut are formulated and revealed. As a result of the study, the authors say about the possibilities of using an ecological approach in designing a modern costume based on a harmonious combination of experimental and associative-figurative form making of emotionally comfortable clothing as an effective way to form cultural identity. Solutions to a number of problems of fashion design of an ecological orientation affect the formation of general cultural values of a modern person.
