    The present research, entitled "Design of a Casual Handbag Collection Applying Upcycling Techniques with Toretto Denim Company," aims to develop a sustainable design proposal through the use of pre-consumer denim textile waste generated during the garment manufacturing process at Toretto Denim, located in Pelileo, Ecuador. The study addresses the environmental problem caused by the accumulation and inadequate management of textile remnants, which contribute to pollution and resource waste within the fashion industry. In response to this issue, upcycling is proposed as a sustainable strategy to transform discarded denim materials into functional and aesthetically valuable products. The research is supported by theoretical foundations related to sustainable design, circular fashion, textile waste management, denim characteristics, and upcycling techniques. A qualitative and applied approach is employed, using bibliographic review, interviews with company personnel and textile design professionals, as well as surveys directed at female students of Textile and Apparel Design. These instruments provide information regarding user preferences, technical criteria, and the suitability of textile waste for product development. Experimental records are also used to evaluate the applicability of different upcycling techniques in the creation of new textile surfaces. Based on the findings obtained, a collection of casual handbags is designed using denim textile remnants and creative upcycling techniques. The proposal seeks to reduce textile waste, promote sustainable production practices, and provide innovative products that combine functionality, aesthetics, and environmental responsibility. The study concludes that upcycling represents a viable alternative for extending the life cycle of textile materials while generating added value and encouraging circular economy practices within the Ecuadorian textile industry.
