History of a Fashionable Mesh Fabrics

In spite of the fact that there are just such a significant number of stitch lengths and midsection statures accessible to browse, one region of mold with colossal inventive potential outcomes is material generation. It is therefore why I trust that design will turn out to be an ever increasing number of materials orientated later on, as it's winding up progressively troublesome stun with outline. 

So as the area of textiles expands, I am going to look back in the history of a fabric which initially had its origins in sportswear and performance wear but it now being used more and more in street fashion: mesh.


Mesh appears with holes of varying size, from Airtex basketball jerseys to the large grid designs we see on the Akris S/S15 catwalk. Although the 80’s were famous for using mesh, such as this vintage Design 90 top available on Etsy and the Valentino shoes depicted in a 1985 Vogue advert  (above), its history extends surprisingly far back into the 19th Century. The story goes that wealthy mill owner Lewis Haslam was out for a stroll with his aunt, when she remarked that her hands were warm even though her gloves were crochet and therefore full of holes. He then began to experiment with air pockets, and Aertex was born, marketed as ensuring “perfect hygiene” in the face of “harmful changes of temperature” (from vintage Aertex advert below). It was both breathable when used as activewear and insulating against the cold.

The History of Sequins Fabrics

Image
When we think of sequins, the first thing that comes to mind is usually New Year’s Eve—a holiday when people venture out in their most shimmery separates to celebrate the coming year amid even shinier decorations. Sometimes, this can verge on overkill, but as we’ve shown before, there’s a way to wear sequins that won’t render you a cliché. What we  don’t  think about when we think of sequins is their history—as in, where on Earth did these shiny little guys sprinkled throughout our wardrobes come from? Was Michael Jackson—a major arbiter of the style—responsible? Or, perhaps, a ’70s/’80s-era designer? Not even close, actually! We dug around for the answer, and what we found was entirely unexpected: Sequins can be traced all the way back to the one and only King Tut, who was alive from 1341 to 1323 B.C. According to  Smithsonian  magazine, when Tut’s tomb was discovered in 1922, his garments were covered in “gold sequin-like disks.” Historians believe they were meant to ensure

How to Print on Polyester Fabric

Image
Polyester fabric presents an interesting problem when it's used as a base for printing. The synthetic fibers do not absorb paint or ink like natural fibers such as cotton. Acrylic paint works as the medium to use when printing on polyester. An acrylic painting medium applied beneath the paint will help to keep the paint colors true. The paint must be heat-set in order to prevent cracking and pealing. This process is used both in hand painting and stencil printing on polyester fabric. 1. Wash and dry the polyester fabric in a washing machine and dryer prior to beginning the printing process. 2. Lay the polyester fabric on a flat surface. Remove any wrinkles by pulling each corner of the fabric. Smooth the fabric from the center to the outside edges using your hand. 3. Place a piece of cardboard under the desired printing area. 4. Place a stencil of the desired print design on the fabric. Secure the stencil to the fabric using masking tape. 5. Optio
