A study of fabric biasness with self developed fabric dimensional behaviour test

Abstract

To achieve better fitting and snug effect ladies wear cut the fabric on bias is a common practice in the fashion industry When a fabric is cut on bias there is a great improvement in terms of extensibility The garment length however exceeds the required length due to the increased extensibility Adjustments in dimensions are necessary in order to meet garment specifications A fabric dimensional behaviour test B Test was developed and used for evaluating the biasness FAST Eb Testing method was adopted as well to compare with the results of the B Test nbsp nbsp
