- An internationally recognised reference
manual, covering virtually all significant
aspects on textile terminology from ‘fibre to
fashion’
|
- It is being continuously updated at regular
intervals with new additions and some
deletions
|
- Although this advanced and comprehensive
compendium is in the English language, the
international character of the industry is being
recognised by the inclusion, wherever possible,
of synonymous regional textile terms and
spellings.
|
- It is a systematic and user-friendly guide
allowing a variety of uses from browsing to
serious analysis of specific issues.
|
- It contains many thousands of terms, with
short and crisp definitions that avoid
excursions into the underlying science and
engineering.
| |
- The online dictionary is directed to the
widest possible audience. The terms are
carefully selected with an eye to what are most
likely to be encountered by those in the
textile, apparel, fashion and retail industries.
The entries cover various textile areas, which
include fibres, yarns, fabrics, garments,
manufacturing operations, processing techniques,
chemicals, auxiliaries, garment finishes,
quality auditing, merchandising, fashion
designing, garment retailing, etc.
|
- This Online Textile Dictionary is made up of
abstracts from the forthcoming new edition of
Resil's Textile Encyclopedia, edited by Mr.Vik
McField, which will be released shortly.
