The fashion industry has long been known as the ultimate source of waste in landfills. Many designers and fashion enthusiasts tried to introduce slower fashion to promote sustainability. Among many approaches, the zero-waste pattern (ZWP) has been known as the keyword that captures the attention of many. The baseline is to produce any fashion pieces with 15% waste or up to nearly 0% waste from a piece of cloth. Because of this definition, many designers are trapped into thinking that Zero Waste Fashion (ZWF) products should only use mono fabric. Indonesia has various local fabrics (wastra) that can be explored. The initial bottom line of wastra is to use the whole fabric with no cutting at all. Therefore, the same spirit of ZWF is found relatable to the use of wastra in the modern context. This study aims to find the right multi-fabric combination using zero waste patterns on wastra. This study uses a design thinking method with an experimental approach. The fabric used in this research is limited to plain modern fabric and wastra with the tie-dye technique. This study found that the sustainable cutting technique is highly efficient when applied to fabric with a width of 115 cm to produce five clothing items. The wastra used should have a pattern that can be rotated without considering the position of the motifs that must meet each other.
