Discussion of different trimming

August 21, 2015 Engr. Md. Mustak Ahmed Accessories, Fashion, Garments

During finishing the garment some of external elements are sewing/ sticky with cloth to increase the beauty. Some of trimmings also used to complete the dress because those dress is not useful until the essential trimmings are absence. there are too many trimmings are used in garments technology like frills, Trucks, Pleats, Gathers, Smocking, Embroidery, Painting etc. most of the trimmings are available on open market as someone can easily get it and used in there garments.

Discussion of different trimming

Let’s have a short description of trimmings:

Nylon Lace

Measurement of a Shirt

August 15, 2015 Engr. Md. Mustak Ahmed Fashion, Garments

Shirt is a maximum globally used cloth and this is especially designed for men but women also used shirt for office and many purpose. There are too many parts require to measure and cut and sewing by industrial or tailoring technique. Shirt should be fitting by different body size otherwise those dresses couldn’t able to get its desire look. Tailoring technique makes perfect shapes and design as customer required but this is a little expensive than industrial system. In that tailoring system one shirt needs a longer time and makes wastage than industrial system. Industrial system takes so much less time than tailoring and industrial system makes less wastage but both has there own specialty.

Measurement of a Shirt

You can find distinguish between garments and tailoring process. Here is some measurement that’s need to measure with a little careful to make a perfect shirt for customer as required. Prefect measurement could take a place of customer satisfactions. A textile engineer or a tailor cutting master should have the knowledge about this point are given blew to obey there professional duties.

5+6 = Collar Point

7+8 = Collar Height

9+10 = Collar Length

8+11 = Band Width

5+14 = Collar Outer

6+15 = Collar Inner

12+13 = Collar Spread

16+17 = Chest/Bust

18/19 = Waist

20+21 = Bottom/Sweep

35+36 = Pocket height

22+23 = Across Chest

17+24 = Arm hole

24+26 = Sleeve length

26+27 = Cuff length

28+29 = Front length

31 = Box plate/Top center

24+25 = Back yoke

32+33 = Elbow

17+21 = Side Seam

30+34 = pocket length

24+28 = Shoulder

All those measurement are required to make a shirt what ever it in garments or tailoring system. Though this is the measurement area but there is little way to take perfect measurement by expert cutting muster. Please take an expert advice to take first step in this measurement area.

Definition & History of color

June 18, 2015 Engr. Md. Mustak Ahmed Dye, Wet Processing

Color is a part of mankind since they find out a new visible element from nature like tree, flower, fruit; leaf and cloudiness sky is called color. This amazing element let them fell and learn different name of different color. So that from the invention time to present time this color takes a largest space in our life. From a little baby to an old person’s has different attraction to the color.

Cloth is not only cover the body but also this cloth increase the good looking of human body. I heard from somewhere it’s was ‘god makes man and a tailor makes gentleman’. To be a perfect man the cloth comes first. Today too many designed and colored dresses are worn by human depending there own personality and test.

According to professor Mentyre about color “The particular visual sensation caused by the light emitted by, transmitted through or reflected from the object” wrote down on his book called “Textiles terms and definitions” published by British Textile Institute.

Color is depends on different terms as we can see it.

The material’s internal and external character like physical status of material, thickness, shape, and behavior with lights.
The character of the lights is reflecting from the objects.

Classification of color according to light theory:

Primary color

Red
Blue
Green

Secondary color

Purple (Red + Blue)
Bluish green (Blue + Green)
Yellow (Red + Green)

Tertiary color

Yellow + Green = Green Yellow , Red + Yellow= Orange
Green + Bluish Green = Green-Green Blue, Blue + Bluish Green = Blue-Blue Green.
Red + Purple = Red Purple, Green + Purple = Violate.

Definition & History of color – color circle

Sun light:

This sun light is a wave of energy which is come to the earth by magnetic wave. The wave length is vast definition. The length of the light is so much different and some of the length is beyond of an eye can see. Basically human eye can see 350 nanometer to 700 nanometer we called it light.

The colors of the visible light spectrum


color	wavelength interval	frequency interval
red	~ 700–635 nm	~ 430–480 THz
orange	~ 635–590 nm	~ 480–510 THz
yellow	~ 590–560 nm	~ 510–540 THz
green	~ 560–520 nm	~ 540–580 THz
cyan	~ 520–490 nm	~ 580–610 THz
blue	~ 490–450 nm	~ 610–670 THz
violet	~ 450–400 nm	~ 670–750 THz

The Serial of the Weave length of solar spectrum

Color	VIBGYOR		Wave length range (nanometer)
Ultra Violate		Ultra Violate	30-390
Violate (V)		Violate	391-430
Indigo (I)		Blue	431-460
Bluish Green (B)		Bluish Green	461-500
Green (G)		Green	501-570
