This study aims to understand the dimensions associated with the behavior of the Slow Fashion consumer, their values, attitudes, and motivations, as well as to know in depth the literature related to Slow Fashion. The present article is a literature review related to the concept of “Slow Fashion”, and follows a qualitative methodology based on an in-depth literature review of 25 papers from the Scopus and Web of Science research databases. For this literature review, a content analysis was initially performed through a bibliometric analysis. Then, a mind map was developed where the five major dimensions related to Slow Fashion consumer behavior were identified: “ethical values”, “sustainable consumption”, “consumer motivations”, “consumer attitudes”, and “sustainability awareness”. We than related the mind map with the main conclusions of the literature review. The main limitation of this research results from the low number of published papers approaching the research concept. We were, however, able to identify the main concepts associated with the movement of Slow Fashion, thereby contributing to the available information on the variables that impact consumers’ purchasing decisions.

“…This pattern was similar to the cultural patterns of yuppies in the 80s, where the young people had a tendency to be able to live independently, had a high level of education, cared about issues that arouse in their place both in environmental, political, and social aspects. Based on research that has been done by Mary Alice Casto and Marilyn DeLong, the participants associated simple and understated layout and surface structures with classic, which allowed a design to express maturity and sophistication [14]. This generation also represented itself with neat, classic, and elegant clothing while still showing power and manners.…”

“…In terms of fashion accessories, the use of sports shoes such as sneakers and running shoes in daily life, whether sports or not, also reflected dynamism and a healthy lifestyle. DeLong stated, classic design has enough familiarity that its form and contexts are still readily understood but can be adjusted or embellished so that it has enough newness or novelty to induce a positive cognitive reassesment or esthetic response [14]. The elegant classic style could be a trend that sticks out in 2015-2018, but because of its timeless manifestations, it was very possible that this classic elegant style did not only appear due to collisions between phenomena, but rather became a long-term trend which could give birth to a new character in the style of upper-class consumers clothes in Indonesia.…”

Clothes do not only fulfill physiological needs, but also psychological needs, so that humans look stylish and trendy. One style of clothes that is recognized and used in Indonesia is a classic elegant style that is characterized by neat cuts, tailor made, and a choice of colors and motifs that tend not too extravagant to accentuate the neat and classic pieces. The use of classic elegant style by upper-class consumers as an important role of the trickle-down fashion principle in this research was traced from the rubrics of "Hot" and "Liputan Khusus" in Dewi Magazine published in 2015-2018. It was found that this style was the dominant style that emerged along with the repetitive cycle of 1980s fashion trends in which fashion consumers had the desire to look established, exclusive, and had special attention to a healthy lifestyle that made the wearers look fit and prime. In the past, classic elegant style was more widely used by adult upper-class consumers, however, the stereotypes changed since this style was then used by young adults with various professions related to the use of the internet, which led to the shifting of upper-class consumers into young adults.

Three-In-One Gown was created in a senior-level studio course that focuses on creative and technical design. This course has a semester-long design project that has a specific theme, and the theme of the semester was "sustainability". The purpose of this mentorship relationship was to guide the student to create a collection of clothing that highlights all the knowledge and skills in design and technology mastered during the entire undergraduate design education experience. The student was asked to develop her collection by developing the concept, suggesting multiple design ideas with sketches, drawing illustrations, researching the market, drafting digital garment patterns, creating 3D avatar and garment prototypes, selecting materials, fitting models and constructing garments. This is one of the outfits of her collection which was the best collection among the class. She successfully demonstrated her knowledge and skills in design, drawing, and garment construction through creative approaches by using both traditional techniques and latest 3D technology. This design also features aesthetically high quality due to elaborate craftsmanship. Statement of Purpose:Entering Apparel Design the program, I was a novice at sewing and have progressed to attain competent and creative levels of skill and construction which have resulted in the creation of this garment, Three-In-One Gown. I have also been a part of fashion club on campus and have had the opportunity to design in over ten fashion shows hosted. This gown was intended to walk in my Senior Showcase for the Annual Spring Fashion Show demonstrating skill and knowledge of the limited production couture industry. For my final pattern drafting course, we were prompted to create a garment that was sustainable. One of well-known form of sustainability in fashion is to focus on reusing the same garment as opposed to purchasing new apparel for every occasion; we call this as "versatility". Versatility includes designs for multiple looks or occasions. Versatile design can mean "serving multiple needs with multiple looks, selecting interchangeable clothing pieces for multiple combinations, or adding accessories to change the look of an ensemble, providing a different focal point to achieve the wearer's goals (DeLong, Heinemann, & Reiley, 2014, p. 126)." Also, versatility is one of the key attributes of classic design (Casto & DeLong, 2019). My passion for niche market as a designer is to create couture evening wear that is classic, timeless and elegant. Thus, I chose to create a look that was the essence of elegance and poise while also following a sustainability theme based on versatility. This look is exactly what its
