Quality iIn manufacturing is a measure of excellence or a state of being free from defect, deficiencies and significant variations.
It is brought about by strict and consistent commitment to certain standards that lead to the achievement uniformity of a product in order to satisfy customer or users requirement is 8402-1986 defined standard quality as
“the totality of features and characteristic of a product or service that bears its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs”. If a client or customer finds assembling defect (uneven collar ends) or fitting defects and makes a recall to the apparel industry, customers reliability will be lost.
Finishing is the process that is applied to a work piece’s surface. Finishing in garment is referred to as the process that is applied to a garment to make it look aesthetic.
As the name implies, finishing covers all the operations required to complete a garment. For most garments the process starts after cutting the details involved in finishing vary according to garment type.
Adornment is generally an accessory of ornament worn to enhance the beauty in status of the wearer. Adornment can also be worn or attached to garment as a fabric collage and garment accessories. Adornment is usually attractive.
A garment is made not only from the apparel fabric but also various accessories items. Fabric is the basic material in garment manufacturing. Apart from fabric the other materials are known as garment accessories.
These have to be chosen in such a way that they complement the outer fabric aesthetically, in terms, of ensuring the parent performs as expected in its intended end use. Various kinds of accessories are used on garments, some are parts of the garment such as buttons, zippers, interlining e.t.c.
while others are used for decorating and enhancing the product apperance such as sequins, lace trims, beads, trimmings, fringes e.t.c
Dutch wax prints also known as Africa wax printing and Ankara are omnipresent and common materials for clothing in African, especially west Africa. They are industrially produce, colorful cotton clothes with batix printing.
One feature or these materials is the lace of difference in color intensity of front and back side. The wax fabric can be sorted into categories of quality due to the process of manufacturing.
Normally, the fabric are sold in 12 yards as “full piece” or 6yards as “ half piece”. These colors comply with the local preferences of the customers. Usually clothing for celebration is made out of these.
The wax prints are part of nonverbal way of communication among African women and hereby they carry their message out into the world. Some wax prints can be named after personalities, cities, buildings, sayings or occasion.
The product, name of the product and registration number of the design is printed in the selvage protecting the design and cillowinng reading the quality of fabric. The wax fabrics constitute capital goods for the Africans.
The design of the wax print
Fabric already has an influence on the international world of fashion and like style. They are an inspirational source for designers and companies.
In relation to adornment using printed fabric (fabric collage), printing will b greatly needed to achieve these creative embellishment on garment. These are various methods of printing. Screen printing is the method suitable for these work design.
Screen printing is a printing technique whereby a mesh is used to transfer ink onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil.
A blade or squeegee is moved across the screen to fill the open mesh operture with ink, and a reverse sore then causes the screen to touch the substrate momentarily along a line of contact.
This causes the ink to wet the substrate and be pulled out of the mesh apertures as the screen springs back after the blade has passed.
There are various terms used for what is essentially the same technique. Traditionally the process was called screen printing or silk screen printing because silk was used in the process prior to the invention of polyester mesh.
Currently synthetic threads are commonly used in the screen printing process. The most popular mesh in general used is made of polyester. There are special-use mesh materials of nylon and stainless steel available to the screen print.
here are also various types of mesh size which will determine the outcome and look of the finished design on the material.
In the apparel industry, finishing the last step of garment manufacturing and assembling operation are performed after making a complete stitched garment by sewing.
They undergo finishing processes like over locking stitch, button hole, button attaching, thread trimming, garment inspection, ironing the garment and packing. To make a garment attractive to the customer the garment should have good appearance.
The garment finishing processes can asset to a certain extent to fulfill the requirement of fast moving fashion and to add functionality. Finishing and packaging are important contribution to the fashion industry. Finishing cold be considered as a silent salesman of products.
For garment like trouser, most times overlooking is done after cutting before stitching them together. We also have the button hole machine that assist in making button hole in shorts, skits, trousers e.t.c.
these two machines over lock and button hole machines are expensive, that not every fashion design can afford, but it being made easily at the market where by some people purchase these machines to generate income for themselves and they render service to fashion designers.
For a single garment over lock it costs as low as fifty naira (50) and each button hole for as low as (20). These are low charges that a fashion designer can keep with in order to have a good garment finishing.
In women clothing, finishing and accessories are significant. It is trendy and adds beauty to a garment.
Nowadays we all kinds of trims, fringes, buttons that are used on different kinds of fabric, beads of all shapes, color and sizes are available to beautify our traditional wears.
It depends on the creative mind of the fashion designer to make good use of the resources available
