ShareThe quality of the undergarments is a combination of design and materials of the desirable products for intended use and the target market. No one will buy a product of poor quality or with any visual defects. The industry critically depends on the factories, the complex supply chain, and if the best procedures are maintained in their quality control systems. A good quality control system maximizes production according to specified requirements in the first attempt. To achieve an acceptable level of satisfaction, quality control is important for design quality, colors, suitability of products, stylistic approach and brand name impact on the market. The most common reason for fabric breakage on cheap undergarments is the fact that there are no set quality standards for most of the cheap products. The consumer checks the quality.....ReadMore

Share“Architecture and Fashion - Something in Common”, is exploring the parallels between one of the most two influential fields in the creative design industry; which are “Architecture” and “Fashion”. The purpose of the research work introduced in this paper is to find the common elements between architecture and fashion. “Design” and “Creativity” are major common elements between architecture and fashion, where both fields involves; imagination, art, visualization, creativity, and skill. On the other hand, architects develop a variety of creative design skills during their undergraduate studies in addition to learning their major in “Architecture”, such diversity of skills expands the realm of their job market, so that those who did not manage to find jobs in their field of major as architects may be able.....ReadMore

ShareThe number of companies manufacturing and selling textiles based on hemp fibers are gradually increasing worldwide. Hemp fabric or hemp textiles are made from cannabis sativa fiber or industrial hemp. Being a natural, renewable and biodegradable material, hemp enjoys obvious advantages over synthetic textile materials like acrylic, polyester, nylon and spandex used for making fabrics. Hemp creates one of the most eco-friendly fabrics in the world. Hemp requires no pesticides or herbicides, controls erosion of the topsoil, and produces oxygen. It is a renewable resource that can be cultivated in as little as 100 days and is the world’s most versatile fiber. In comparison, cotton is more water-intensive and takes longer to reach harvest age and produces less.....ReadMore

ShareTextile and fashion industry are the thirstiest for water as it is one of the largest water consumers from fibre production to finished product. Unfortunately, all the scientific reports and opinions of renowned water experts are predicting the severe water scarcity in the near future in many parts of world particularly the developing countries where textile and fashion industry production activities are located because of cheap labour and less stringent environmental laws. The gloomy picture of water scarcity is good enough to caution the textile and fashion industry to take appropriate measures to use the water resources sustainably and make all efforts to save water at every stage of supply chain. In the first part of this series attempt has been made to provide a critical review of water distribution on earth, inequitable w.....ReadMore

ShareDuring high speed sewing, needle thread is subjected to dynamic loading, inertia forces, friction and repeated tensile stresses at tremendous rates. The value of these stresses depends upon stitching speed, sewing thread tension, stitch length and sewing thread properties. These parameters affect the tensile properties of sewing threads adversely, leading to loss in seam strength. In this study, the effect of various parameters lubrication (%), stitch density, the number of fabric layers and stitching speed on tensile properties of sewing thread has been studied using Box- Behnken design. Contrary to the popular belief, loss in tenacity increases as stitching speed increases. 4% lubrication (%) is suggested to get minimum tenacity loss (%)......ReadMore

ShareThe analysis of colour in terms of hue, value and chroma has its origin deeply rooted with Ostwald concept of colour quantification, though from the epic age, this colour has played an important role in human life. This inspired us to explore the vast storehouse of the natural’s palette to initially paint ourselves then to dye the apparels. According to Trottman [1] dye stuffs give colour to the material onto which they have been anchored, by selectively retaining some of the wavelengths out of the light falling upon the surface. If a dye absorbs strongly at the red end of the spectrum the light that is reflected will be of a bluish hue. Only a limited number of organic molecules possess this property of absorbing light selectively. Ever since about 1860 intense interest has been displayed in investigations to discover which aspects of .....ReadMore

ShareAbstract The notion of global fashion industry is a product of the modern age as clothing is often designed in one country, manufactured in another, and sold worldwide. The global fashion industry is dependent on ever-changing trends that keep consumers, driven by the need to wear the latest. The paper highlights the fast fashion and slow fashion models prevailing in the fashion industry. Among the two models the fast fashion model is well established, however the slow fashion model is gaining importance as it discourages undesirable excessive use of clothing resulting in the waste recycling problems and threat to environment. The paper also peeps through the internal, micro and macro factors influencing the business environment of fashion industry and ways and means to overcome these factors to meet the ultimate goal to establish .....ReadMore

ShareAbstract Textile printing is an ancient art from the Egyptian tomb era to a modern era, which is one of the most important process for the manufacturers. Art being a creative pattern of imagination and immense competition and globalization in the textile world, were the key major concern for the manufacturers is from the customer who are mostly looking for eco-friendly products, textile printing has become more dependable on the science than it was.The discharge printing methods is one of the popular technique used major for its aesthetic attractiveness of the product. Discharge printing has opened the door over past 6-7 years for the mass garment production after developing a dischargeable ink system. Mostly 20-30% of the chemicals are used in one cycle of printing which are hazardous to the environment and some of the chemical me.....ReadMore

ShareThe textile industry’s severe environmental impact is well documented. Whether it is the high exposure of pesticides or excessive water usage for harvesting cotton crops, the increased carbon footprint of man-made fibers or the uncertain handling of hazardous chemicals during the further manufacturing process and the associated water contamination due to the discharge of poorly treated effluent. Also, workers in the textile industry must face violations of international human and labor rights. These include insufficient labor conditions like wages below the subsistence level, inadequate occupational health and safety provisions [1, 2], but also documented cases of physical and sexual abuse [3]......ReadMore

ShareAbstract The most important property of all apparels is comfort. It is a qualitative term and it is one of the most important aspects of clothing. The clothing comfort can be divided into three categories, i.e. physiological, tactile and thermal comfort. Physiological comfort bears little relation to the properties of the fabrics and is mainly related to the latest fashion trend and the acceptability in society. The tactile comfort has relationship with fabric surface and mechanical properties. The thermal comfort is related to the ability of a fabric to maintain the temperature of the skin through transfer of heat and perspiration generated within human body and is determined by movement of heat, moisture and air. Comfort characteristics are related to surface smoothness, air permeability, heat transmittance, and hydrophilicity of.....ReadMore
