Title: Sustainable design of children's stage clothing for a folklore festival
Keywords: sustainable design, capsule collection, folk festivals

Abstract: The report presents the artistic design of a capsule collection of stage costumes for preschool children, developed in accordance with the principles of sustainable design. The main emphasis is placed on the integration of folklore ornaments and motifs as an expression of cultural identity. The collection is intended for use during folklore holidays in kindergartens and includes clothing inspired by traditional Bulgarian folk costumes, adapted to the age and physical characteristics of children. The models are designed with versatility and flexibility, allowing them to be worn by different age groups and body types, which contributes to their long-term use and minimizing waste. Sustainability is also reflected in the choice of materials - biodegradable fabrics such as organic cotton, linen, viscose and wool were used. The collection combines tradition, functionality and environmental responsibility, becoming an example of a modern sustainable approach to children's stage costumes.
