Lühikirjeldus: This thesis explores the potential of automotive textile waste as a material source for fashion design. The research examines whether automotive textile waste from Estonian scrapyards can be transformed into wearable garments and how material limitations influence the design process and aesthetics.The study follows an autoethnographic and practice-based approach, where the design process itself serves as a method of inquiry. Materials such as airbags and bus seat fabrics were collected from local scrapyards and used in design experiments documented through photography, sketching and material testing.The findings show that automotive textile waste can be transformed into wearable garments, particularly outerwear. Factors such as size, condition and pattern shaped both construction and aesthetics. The thesis demonstrates that automotive textiles are not inherently waste and that fashion design can create new possibilities for their reuse.
