The plus sized men were facing challenges in finding some fitting and ready- to-wear clothes on the market because of size restriction in a market. The clothing manufacturing companies was mass producing these ready-to-wear clothes ostensibly for all men, ironically leaving the plus-sized men disgruntled due to misfitting clothes and size restrictions. The study used critical postmodernism and the concurrent triangulation approaches to determine scope for either any convergence, differences or combination. Data was collected using questionnaires, interviews, observations and documentary analysis from the twenty-four (24) purposively sampled participants. Recommendations were made for the clothing companies to integrate the extreme and in-between sizes. This study offers insights on better sizing for different body types eliminating the emotional psychology disturbances.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"90 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88530502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But plenty of apparels are becoming waste which increases the cost of production. As resources are decreasing but increasing costs of the products. Effective apparel waste management is needed to ensure the profit. Reducing such waste can be profitable options for the manufacturers as well as the buyers. Considering this matter, a project work is done in a ready-made garment manufacturing industry to improve the quality of the products through using a traffic light system. A traffic light system was implemented to minimize the defect rates of production. The study shows that the average defect rates were dropped from 4.13 to 1.25 pieces of a line for daily eight hours of production. By implementing this system, the defect rates are minimized and the monthly production is also increased and it clearly depicts that the monthly capacity before implementing the traffic light system was equivalent but the defective production was more whereas, after implementation, the defective production was negligible.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81704578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moisture absorbency is an important property of cotton fabric due to which bacteria can easily affect the cotton fabric and lowers the quality of it. Chitosan, HTACC, and NMA-HTACC were applied on cotton fabric by exhaustion method and observed antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Among the finished fabrics, NMA-HTCC treated cotton fabric showed over 93% of bacterial reduction against E. coli and over 97% of bacterial reduction against S. aureus even after 30 home launderings. This is due to the strong attachment ability of NMA-HTACC to cotton fabric and better solubility in aqueous solution and the presence of positive charge of the nitrogen atom in its structure in all conditions. For this reason, NMA-HTACC can be applied to develop cotton fabric as anti-bacterially active which makes it suitable for medical purposes by minimizing the chances of growth and multiplication of bacteria.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"358 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90912223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this research, researchers established a developed process for knit dyeing then experiment was done on this process. Water consumption was calculated for both processes; conventional and developed process. Developed process consumes less water compare to existing process. Proper implementation of this developed process can save 20.85-28.75% water consumption at the knit dyeing industry. At the same time, performed the cost analysis and developed process shows lower cost than existing processes. Developed process is more efficient and profitable than existing knit dyeing process.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"151 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74163804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The bodice was subdivided into surface zones in the present study to efficiently develop 2D patterns that can later be transferred into 3D virtual garments and draped onto 3D avatars. The 2D patterns were developed based on morphological analysis that provided different possible solutions to enhance comfort by releasing garment strain at each surface zone. The structural lines and wearing ease grade points were utilized to adjust a tennis shirt block pattern when developing this 2D pattern at morphological analysis step. In this study, 3D body scanner was used to create 3D avatars with postures based on the determined seven body movements. The drafted pattern was used to drape the virtual garments on the each movement of 3D avatars in the CAD program, and then the stain areas of the pattern design were identified using the tension map. In all of the movements, the majority of garment strain appeared on the shoulder surface and around the neck within the surface zone of bodice shoulder angle. The majority of other strain found was on the shoulder blade as the bodice bust zone during movements in the forehand swing, backhand swing, serve toss, and serve follow through postures. Based on these strain results obtained from 3D scanner, the first pattern was developed to release strains in shoulder as seen by the significant decrease in strain during both forehand movements. The second pattern was constructed to release other maximized strain on the back surface zone of the shoulder blade. Based on the results of this study, it should be noted that the shoulder and the shoulder blade areas are important during development of patterns in terms of decreasing strain for comfort during wheelchair tennis play movements.","PeriodicalId":17152,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Textile Engineering & Fashion Technology","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89020206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study found that multi-layered cultural garments could be relatively effectively simulated in virtual software, such as EFI Optitex. Moreover, number of fabric layers did not significantly affect either appearance or fit similarity between virtual and physical garments.
