THE IMPACT OF NATURAL FABRICS ON CLOTHING QUALITY
Abstract
Natural fabrics have been used in clothing production for centuries due to their comfort, durability, and positive influence on human health and the environment. In recent years, interest in natural textiles such as cotton, wool, silk, and linen has increased as consumers become more aware of quality, sustainability, and comfort. This article examines the impact of natural fabrics on clothing quality, focusing on factors such as comfort, breathability, durability, appearance, and environmental sustainability. The study also compares natural fabrics with synthetic materials and highlights their advantages in garment production. The article aims to show that the choice of fabric plays a crucial role in determining the overall quality and value of clothing.
