Modern Fibers: A Human- Centered Technology JTSFT -Iris Publishers

Clothing  represents  one  of  the  most  ancient  forms  of  human  expression  and  is  a  tool  that  an  individual  use  to  express  his/her  culture  and  social  status  in  society.  Since  the  dawn  of  civilization,  humans  have  used  fabrics  to  provide  basic  warmth  and  show  aesthetics.   People   gradually   added   more   patterns   and   styles,   creating  clothing  out  of  different  materials.  Today,  the  U.S.  fashion  and  apparel  industry  are  a  $12  billion  business,  with  the  average  American  family  spending  $1,700  on  clothes  annually  (BLS  Data  2018) [1]. The fiber sector of the clothing and textile industry has undergone  substantial  change  in  recent  years,  and  the  modern  fibers have opened a whole new frontier for clothing products.
