%X The shift towards sustainability in the fashion industry has become an
urgent necessity and a national duty<span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\">,</span><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\"> where the life cycle of garments poses a negative impact on the environment,
which increases strongly with the huge increase in the daily consumption of
garments and fast fashion. One of the most prominent solutions that have been
proposed is to change the manufacturing system i<span>n a way that would help reduce costs, reduce supply and provide products
that are more closely related to the individual customer need. Accessories such
as (closers) are an important part of the fashion industry, and therefore, this
study aimed to produce closers using (FDM) technology, which is one of the
least expensive and most widespread 3D printing technologies. These closers are
then tested in the laboratory according to AATCC standard specifications for
garments and closers to ensure the applicability of this technology </span>in
the implementation of closers for designers and manufacturers in medium and
small facilities.</span><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\"> This study relied on the
experimental exploratory approach, and the results proved the success of the
proposed closers, as the implemented models passed the standard tests with
distinction.</span>
