ABSTRACT
Abstract: In dyeing, a single hue at specific depth is produced on various textiles. However, the traditional uniform and thorough colouration is losing its charm progressively with passage of time as well as innovation in technology; any colouration must develop an attractive multi-colour or single coloured differential look for its potential marketing. These effects enhance look as well as decorative and aesthetic value of clothing. In the backdrop of twenty-first century – the era of excellence in technical world – fashion sensitive market is in quest of garments/apparels with designs of newer themes and touch forcing textile chemical processors to develop innovative ideas to produce design on fabric itself during dyeing to have a better effect on apparels. These fancy effects may be produced by manipulation of dyeing technology and/or in various other ways. This chapter describes numerous approaches to develop such multi-colour or single coloured differential effect on yarns and fabrics.
