Abstract

The impact of the fast fashion phenomenon is seen both in apparel and textile manufactures since the manufacturing time of apparels is considered as the most potential factor in reducing the overall time of the fashion cycle. In addition to the need for reduction in lead time, there is an increase in levels of quality expectations, resulting in higher cost of manufacture. Hence, in the present scenario, for high fashion garments, there is a need for technology which can minimize lead time and fabric losses, in addition to the production of garments as per the requirement of the customers in a short span of time. A DPOL (Direct Pattern on Loom) method for weaving fabric in the shape of garment panels (pieces) finished at the edges that could considerably reduce fabric loss and lead time is developed by using the electronic jacquard weaving machine. The main aim of the project is to study the feasibility of the production of Direct pattern on Loom especially on jacquard and to check the lead time required with conventional and this modern method.

Highlights

  • The classic definition of fashion states that “fashion indicates style or styles most popular at a given time, and constitutes four basic components of style, change, acceptance and tastes” These four components of fashion have drastically changed their dimensions in the last few years

  • The main aim of the project is to check the feasibility of the Direct Pattern on Loom (DPOL) process on the Bonas jacquard loom

  • Whereas various physical tests were carried out to prove the applicability of the DPOL patterns with respect to the conventional patterns

Summary

Introduction

The classic definition of fashion states that “fashion indicates style or styles most popular at a given time, and constitutes four basic components of style, change, acceptance and tastes” These four components of fashion have drastically changed their dimensions in the last few years. Years back fashion changes used to evolve gradually, giving time to the consumers to get accustomed to the new look [1]. Fast fashion clothing seizes trends with no dilution. To cope up with modern fashion trends most fashion retailers are changing styles and designs of clothing very quickly and offering more variation in designs and styles. This has reduced the trends of manufacturing similar styles in higher volume and expanding trend of smaller volumes and large numbers of varying styles are on the rise
