Woven fabrics date back to the ancient ages and have been extensively used particularly in apparel, home textile, and other industries. The selection of yarn and knitting technique are among the important factors in fabrication of woven fabric surfaces with high aesthetical value. Particularly color selection for yarn used in fabrication of woven fabrics has a significant effect on the appearance of the final product. The ever-increasing quality of life brings about the need for new and different looks among individuals. In this work, the course of development and fabrication for a simple woven fabric has been studied, and the obtained products were used in apparel designs. In this context, first the theme was determined, and then pattern designs and patterns were woven in 25*25 cm size. The woven fabrics were used as detail on different parts of outfits designed under the theme “steet fashion”. Also, two of the designs were chosen and manufactured as final-products. Accordingly, different and modern designs were introduced by bringing the obtained woven surfaces together with dresses. Keywords: woven design, plain weave, fabric design, clothing design

Shaded weaves are used in digital jacquard fabrics for expressing rich colors, especially in the design of figured jacquard fabrics. The original image process and shaded weave database ( SWD) process are two independent design processes for the production of figured jacquard fabrics. SWD processes are relatively fixed, but original images vary frequently, and color value inconsistencies between the original image and its jacquard fabric are often neglected by researchers. This paper presents the design principles of a SWD based on a sateen basic weave and analyzes the color rendering of seven groups of fabric specimens produced using SWD processes with three transition directions and different step numbers. The color rendering characteristics of the SWD process were mainly determined by the transition direction of the interlacing points, but were also slightly affected by the weave’s step number when horizontal transitions were used. Three photographic images with different tones were selected to design three groups of single-layer figured jacquard fabrics. The results proved that the tone of a woven fabric is determined by the SWD process used, not the original image. A method was proposed to predict the final tone of a woven fabric by adjusting the lightness value of the original image according to the values of the fabric specimens of the SWD process that are used. This study outlines how the digital processing of a figured jacquard fabric design may be achieved using a SWD process based on one of the three design directions.


The weaving industry is regarded as one of the world's most popular industries. Clearly, designers' ideas gave them a drive to start a conversation about the future of design studies and research training, as well as practicing a fashion that illuminated this industry. Vigorous efforts are being exerted into producing new processes, with intensifying designing endeavors from design motifs of textile design. This paper presents a detailed study on weaving design which functions as a new approach to KPP weaving design process by defining pattern characteristics of woven fabric design. Generally speaking, there is no evidence that KPP design identity characteristics can be implemented solely on the basis of the idea process. A literature review was performed to define the current framework relevant to the choice of design and motifs and the implementation of pattern recognition characteristics for KPP in the weaving industry. It is shown that weaving design patterns and characteristics can be used as a single review point and should therefore be used as KPP's review technique for this research. When attempting to identify design innovation and motif selections in fabric weaving, a design framework for design identification through pattern characteristics is significant. The result showed that the design framework generated from this study will provide the overall aesthetic value for KPP pattern characteristics, which can serve as a new approach in weaving design and design studies, with the potential for further development suitable for future research, as suggested from the results of this study.
