Every piece of the clothing undergone various types of testing and finishing methods to make them suitable and safe for wearing. There are n number of fibers from different sources like bamboo from bamboo plant, banana fibers etc., are converted into fabrics to make garments or any other types of objects used in day-to-day life. Not only these many varieties are invented in the industry these are also one big key for sustainable materials. Rather than usage of synthetic fibers and yarns that are chemical made using natural raw materials helps to maintain the sustainability to a certain level. Although these materials are already gaining popularity among people still it is less used and seen as garment compared to other materials like cotton, wool etc., in order to make eco-friendly clothing extra care is needed due to its environmental and sustainable production methods. through this project we will be able to understand the eco-friendly materials I, e bamboo (a main key in this project) and the finishing and testing process and the value of garment. This project aims to reduce the environmental impact of fashion industry and to create high quality garments that promotes the usage of sustainable materials.
