Abstract
Bamboo, known for its rapid growth and renewability, offers an eco-friendly alternative to traditional fibers, targeting the environmental effects of the textile and clothing industries. This review paper examines art-crafted weaving techniques, highlighting the incorporation of bamboo into traditional and modern designs to enhance the sustainability of bamboo-woven products. The paper thoroughly analyzes bamboo fiber extraction and hand-crafted techniques to produce sustainable, technical, and functional items such as sportswear and medical textiles. It also addresses the challenges linked to utilizing bamboo in textiles. Special emphasis is given to integrating bamboo into traditional weaving methods as a sustainable approach to enhance its uniqueness and preserve cultural heritage. By exploring sustainable practices and artistic innovation, this paper underscores the significance of connecting traditional craftsmanship with contemporary weaving design principles to fill research and practice gaps. In light of the ecological challenges posed by fast fashion, this study promotes sustainable practices by incorporating renewable materials and prioritizing brilliant material selection. Ultimately, this review emphasizes the vital role of design in fostering sustainability and provides a roadmap for preserving weaving traditions.
