Abstract
Fashion waste has become a global issue because it is the second-largest contributor to waste after oil and gas. Thus, every sector in the fashion industry, especially the education sector, has begun to think about a zero-waste learning curriculum that can form the competence of fashion designers who can be creative wisely without producing any waste. However, Fashion waste in fabric trashes and used clothes today requires serious handling. Designers’ expertise is needed to turn this waste into a unique, exclusive, useful product. Fabric waste upcycling needs a wide variety of competencies, such as sorting fabric trash and choosing the proper technique according to the type of fiber. The most important thing is finding the right market for the product. A community service program (PKM) has seen an opportunity to develop various upcycled products according to market needs, namely a guest house that needs multiple upcycled products ranging from bed linings to home décor. Students are also involved in the Project-Based Learning (PBL) through this community service program (PKM). This project-based learning (PBL) study aims to increase student’s creativity in project upcycling for fabric waste. This research used qualitative methods with descriptive analysis, the data collection methods used observation techniques, and the interviews of students in textile manipulation courses—data analysis used the theory of Project-based Learning (PBL). The study’s results showed that PBL had produced variations in student creativity in the products made, originality in describing problems, and creativity in finding solutions. The upcycling project carried out by students in PBL has become a solution for two institutions related to the waste problem. The first institution is the classroom, which will always produce fabric waste from course projects every semester. The second institution is a partner in the study. Student creativity in the form of upcycling products such as bed linings and home décor contributes creative ideas for Ketapanrame tourism villages so that they can improve the creative economy in the town.
