The hot trend in the market is organic clothing. With
chemicals taking a toll on human health and environment, there is a growing
concern for global warming which boosts the demand for organic products.
Organic Clothing:
Organic clothing reduces one's exposure to allergens, and
other irritants. They also improve soil fertility, cotton yield, and saves
water. Organic clothing is made from hundred percent organic materials like
soy, organic cotton and hemp. Variety of clothes like skirts, blouses, shirts, pants,
socks, bathrobes, pillow cases etc are made from organic fibres.
The industry is further enhanced by fashion designers who
design their collections with organic fabrics. The clothing is put under global
spotlight through fashion shows, and runway models who pose with trendy outfits
made from organic fabrics. Designers are working towards making these clothes
more appealing, fashionable and economical to suit the preferences as well as
the shopping budget of the consumers.
Herbal dyeing:
Herbal dyeing is still one step ahead of organic life style.
It supports the core concept of organic cotton to eliminate the impact of
harmful chemicals and pesticides. Apart from growing cotton, dyeing is a major
area of concern for people who have chemical sensitivities. Garment finishing
techniques like wrinkle free, and non-shrink may be harmful for people with
sensitive skin. They may cause nausea, breathing difficulties, seizures etc. Herbal
dyeing avoids this entire hazard. It avoids the many ailments that are common
with conventional clothing.

preferences, industry evolution, current and future trends of the clothing.
