    Study Notes

    Fabric Knowledge for Merchandisers

    • Fabric knowledge is crucial for fashion management professionals.
    • A fiber is the smallest part of a fabric, a fine, hair-like substance.
    • Fibers have a high length-to-width ratio, enabling flexibility during manufacturing and use.
    • Fibers are grouped and twisted into continuous strands called yarns.

    Classification of Fibers

    • Fibers can be categorized as natural or man-made.
    • Natural fibers are further classified as vegetable, animal, and mineral.
    • Vegetable fibers include cotton, jute, and linen.
    • Animal fibers include wool and silk.
    • Mineral fibers include asbestos and glass.
    • Man-made fibers are further categorized as regenerated fibers (like viscose and acetate) and synthetic fibers (like polyester and nylon).
    • Fibers can also be classified as staple or filament fibers.
      • Staple fibers are short fibers (like cotton).
      • Filament fibers are long fibers (like silk and nylon).

    Cotton

    • Cotton is used for various garments like jeans, t-shirts, and towels.
    • It is cool to wear, soft, drapes well, and is durable.
    • It is washable and ironable but creases easily.
    • It is very absorbent and dries slowly.
    • Advantages: cool to wear, very absorbent, soft handle, good drape, durable, completely washable and dry-cleanable, no static or pilling problems, inexpensive.
    • Disadvantages: wrinkles easily unless treated, susceptible to mildew and strong acids, poor elasticity and resiliency, less luster.
    • Cotton is hypoallergenic as it doesn't irritate sensitive skin or cause allergies.
    • Cotton's softness makes it a preferred fabric for underwear and other garments that touch the skin.
    • Cotton is a popular choice for fashion and homeware designers due to its easy dyeing capabilities.
    • Durable press is a finishing treatment for cotton, eliminating creasing and ironing needs.

    Linen

    • Linen is textile fibers from the flax plant.
    • Linen production is labor-intensive.
    • Advantages: Best wicking (therefore cool to wear), dries quickly, natural soft sheen, strong and durable, does not melt.
    • Disadvantages: Wrinkles badly unless treated, susceptible to mildew and strong acids, color frosts on creases, may be weakened with repeated creasing, may scorch.
    • Linen is the strongest of the vegetable fibers.
    • It becomes softer with repeated washing.
    • Linen fabrics have high natural luster.
    • Linen can withstand high temperatures and has moderate shrinkage.
    • Linen is easier to iron when damp.
    • Uses of linen include high-street fashion skirts, ladies tops, sweaters, formal wear, chef uniforms, aprons, school uniforms, and medical uniforms.
    • Priests often prefer linen due to its purity.
