In the world of clothing, the fabrics used in clothing are diverse and constantly changing.

In the world of clothing, the fabrics used in clothing are diverse and constantly changing. However, overall, high-quality and high-end fabrics have several characteristics such as comfortable wearing, sweat absorption and breathability, hanging and firm, visually noble, and soft touch.


Modern clothing worn in formal social occasions often uses high-quality blended fabrics. However, natural fabrics such as pure cotton, pure wool, pure silk, and pure linen have become ordinary fabrics due to their disadvantages of being prone to wrinkles and deformations, and are less commonly used as high-end clothing materials. Blended fabrics have the characteristics of natural fabric sweat absorption, breathability, softness, and comfort, as well as the advantages of chemical fiber fabrics such as durability, hanging, good luster, and bright colors. Every year, a large number of high-end and high-quality blended fabrics are developed. Sometimes, wearing clothing made of pure leather is also allowed. Generally, clothing fabrics are divided into two major series:


Woven fabric: mainly used for outerwear and shirts of clothing.


Knitted fabrics: Underwear and sports clothing series, but due to the development of technology, knitted fabrics have also developed towards thickness and stiffness, gradually externalizing knitted underwear. The weaving method of knitted fabrics has become a supplement to outerwear.


With the improvement of modern people's quality of life, their requirements for their own clothing are also increasing. They are no longer limited to the shape and style of clothing, but pay more attention to whether the fabric of clothing is comfortable and environmentally friendly.


According to data from the Zhiyan Data Research Center, the rise in cotton prices has led to an increase in the cost of the entire production chain, forcing a series of products in the production chain to rise in price. This has precisely given rise to a new opportunity for the clothing industry's fabrics. Upgrades of cotton, such as corn fiber, bamboo fiber, and new plant hemp fiber, have emerged. These bio based fabrics save more water and pesticides in the production process than cotton fabric, meeting the needs of consumers and the whole society for low-carbon environmental protection.


Clothing made from these natural animal and plant materials is called "ecological clothing" by people. New low-carbon and environmentally friendly fabrics such as cotton, linen, silk, and leather are made from natural animal and plant materials and have corresponding marks after virus testing Combining with the current trend of "environmental protection" and the inner need of modern people to return to simplicity, "ecological clothing" is gradually becoming a new trend in the fashion industry. They not only reflect environmental awareness in terms of style and color design, but also use pollution-free natural materials for fabrics, buttons, zippers and other accessories; From raw material production to processing, it is entirely from the perspective of protecting the ecological environment, avoiding the use of environmentally damaging substances such as chemical printing and dyeing materials and resins.


The concepts of ecological clothing and green clothing are basically the same, but there are also slight differences: "green clothing" mainly refers to green textiles and ecological clothing. Internationally developed and marketed "green textiles" generally have various functions such as odor prevention, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, UV resistance, radiation resistance, and humidification. This type of product is still in its early stages in China, with underwear being the main product already launched. However, due to its specific beneficial functions for human health, this type of textile is more popular among consumers.


From the above, it can be seen that designing clothing, whether from fabric or style, not only considers comfort and fashion, but more importantly, combines with environmental protection. Low carbon and environmental protection is the future trend of clothing fabric development.
