Abstract:
Clothing and Textiles, one of the five branches of Home Science subject, faced changes in the course content over the last few years. Apart from focusing on traditional areas, new subjects have also been given due consideration. Recent advances in different fields like fibre science, spinning, garment constructions, value addition of garments, dyeing and printing techniques etc. and also introduction of new fields like Technical textiles, marketing, retail and resource management, visual merchandising, designing softwares in textiles and clothing etc. make the subject more technical and interesting. This article covers different factors which acted as a catalyst in altering the course content of Clothing and Textiles.
