The desire for introduction beauty and grace in appeal existed since Stone Age, Apparel reflects outward symbol of a person's attitude, behavior, interest, taste etc. Fashions determine the style and create an overall state of harmony and stability. Amongst the craft of textile embroidery occupies a significant place.The present study revolves around designing and development a collection of dresses through applique on smocking with their applique on smocking. A study of smocking with applique were carried out and these were then adapted into their original and stylized from creating a whole collection to keep in view the avant grade young girls who are fashion leader. We have designed a collection of them because western painting and sculpture had been representational for so much of their history, artist who began to make abstract in the early 20th century through that they have discovered something radical new. This study tends to create a range of young girls garment prepared smocking with applique. Fabric related is hosiery, jute, satin, shannel, synthetic tissue, cotton, raw silk, are classic and in vogue in the fashion world. Colours used are red, pink, metallic green, silver grass copper, parrot green purple. A collection of 3 top, 1 skirt, 1 gown with short jacket were prepared with using smocking with applique.Keywords

Sixteen nettle units established in Chamoli and Uttarkashi districts of Uttarakhand by Uttarakhand Bamboo Fibre Development Board were surveyed to document the production processes of nettle textiles. There were five fibre processing units and three spinning units with total strength of 310 workers. Nettle plants were collected from hilly areas by workers without paying any cost to the land owners. Nettle stalks were subjected to running water retting, beating and washing, bleaching with kaoline paste followed by carding and spinning. From one kilogram of nettle bark 400 g fibres could be extracted. Ultimately 300 g nettle yarn could be obtained from one kilogram nettle bark. Opening of nettle enterprise holts a promising opportunity for the economic upliftment of rural people.Keywords

Nettle or Bicchu buti grows abundantly as wild plant in Chamoli and Uttarkashi in Uttarakhand. Very soft and warm nettle fibres are obtained from its bark. Only limited product line of pure nettle fabric was available in the market at a high cost. Thus, the need was felt to diversify the nettle usage and develop innovative textile textures. Thus, present study was conducted to develop eighteen nettle union fabric textures using three selected yarns viz., cotton (2/20, 2/24), acrylic (2/24, 2/32) and polypropylene (2/120, single ply) as warp along with nettle (6 Nm) yarn in weft direction in plain, basket, and twill weaves. Developed union fabrics were shown to a sample of 180 women in the age group of 25-35 years to assess their preferences for product development from union fabrics. Developed union fabrics were most preferred for jackets, stoles and various home textile products. Cotton (2/20)/nettle (6 Nm) with EPI=48, PPI=26 was preferred 41.67 per cent respondents for jacket, while 51.67 per cent respondents preferred acrylic (2/32)/nettle (6 Nm) with EPI=65, PPI=34 for stole. Developed union fabrics were comparatively cheaper as cost of cotton, acrylic and polypropylene was nearly 20 per cent of the nettle cost.Keywords

The naturalism trend has established sectors in the textile and fashion industry also. Nettle fibres will take a major role in the emerging “green” economy based on energy efficiency, industrial processes that reduce carbon emissions and recyclable materials that minimize waste. Natural fibres are a kind of renewable resources. These are also carbon neutral; they absorb the equal amount of carbon dioxide they produce. These fibres are completely renewable, environmental friendly and bio-degradability. Also, this paper focused on different properties of cotton/nettle union fabrics. The cotton/nettle union fabrics were constructed to study the properties of fabric. To construct cotton/nettle union fabric, the cotton yarn was used as warp with nettle weft. In the study, the fabrics were prepared with three different weaves (plain, twill and basket weave). Union fabric was much cheaper in cost compared to pure nettle fabric. Those woven fabrics were tested for physical and mechanical properties. Further, data were evaluated to find out the influence of physical and mechanical properties.Keywords

A study was performed on the acrylic/nettle union fabric to show the effect of physical and mechanical properties of union fabric. Here, the acrylic yarn was used in the warp direction and nettle yarn was used in the weft direction. Fabric weight of (AN5) was 393.3 g/m2, respectively. Fabric thickness of AN5 fabric was 1.91 mm which was higher than the other union fabrics. It was concluded that fabrics with higher fabric weight and thickness were suitable for making home textile products viz., rug, table runner and cushion cover because these would retain shape well, and resist slippage and folds in use. Dimensional stability of AN6, AN1 fabric was more due to compact yarn and fabric structure in which less space was left for shrinkage. Less shrinkage was considered good for fitted textile products. AN4 and AN2 fabrics were found to be more durable as the breaking strength compared to other union fabricwas considered good for textile products. Fabrics with codes AN2 exhibited more abrasion resistance and were considered good for textile products for personal use and found to be durable.Keywords

The textile industry for designing and producing new textiles from time to time. The efforts were taken to develop Eco-friendly and biodegradable fibres to control non-polluting environment. Nettle plant have been used as food, fodder and raw material in cosmetics, medicines, industry and bio-dynamic agriculture. Many experiments have been conducted not only in developing commercial textiles using nettle, but also in the growth and propagation of the crop in the most sustainable manner. The nettle union fabrics were constructed to study the properties of fabric. To construct nettle union fabric, the nettle yarn was used as weft with cotton, acrylic and polypropylene yarn as warp. In the study, the fabrics were prepared with three different weave (plain, twill and basket weave). Union fabric was much cheaper in cost compared to pure nettle fabric. Those woven fabrics were tested for physical and mechanical properties analyzed. Further, data were evaluated to find out the influence of physical and mechanical properties.Keywords
