Jungmin Yeo’s work for the Maison/0 “Regenerative Luxury” initiative at Central Saint Martins (in partnership with LVMH from 2017) explores how luxury fashion can be sustainable, gender‑fluid, and waste‑free.​

Maison/0 and regenerative luxury

Maison/0 is a platform created by Central Saint Martins and LVMH to support new approaches to “sustainability and innovation in luxury,” encouraging students and designers to experiment with regenerative materials and circular design methods. Jungmin Yeo’s participation as an award‑winning designer in this context indicates recognition for pushing these ideas through concrete garment prototypes and pattern innovations.​

Zero waste pattern innovation

Zero waste pattern cutting aims to eliminate fabric off‑cuts by designing pattern pieces that use the entire cloth, and Jungmin’s project develops one base pattern that can transform into three distinct garment designs while still generating no cutting waste. This demonstrates that aesthetic variety and high‑end fashion silhouettes are possible without the typical fabric loss associated with conventional pattern cutting.​

Upcycled regenerated tweed

The project also experiments with regenerated tweed, using upcycled fibers and prototype machine‑made textiles to create new luxury materials from existing resources instead of virgin inputs. Working with such regenerated tweed shows how traditional “heritage” fabrics associated with luxury can be reimagined within a circular, low‑waste system.​

Shared garment for all genders

A key concept in Jungmin’s work is a single garment that can be worn by both men and women, so that, for example, a husband and wife could share one piece that can be reconfigured into two very different looks. This approach merges gender‑inclusive design with material efficiency, reducing the total number of garments needed while still offering individual expression and styling options.​

What this proves about the work

Taken together, these elements show that Jungmin Yeo has developed new solutions in zero‑waste pattern cutting, upcycling of regenerated tweed, and gender‑sharing garments that align luxury fashion with regenerative and circular design principles. The work exemplifies how “regenerative luxury” can combine innovation, sustainability, and versatility rather than treating them as trade‑offs.​
