1. Cotton. Cotton is one of the most common fabrics for children's clothing. It is very suitable for children's skin and is most suitable for making clothes for children to wear close to their bodies. Cotton has good warmth retention, is light and soft, is gentle and close-fitting, and has good water absorption and breathability.
Fabric is essential to any garment; without it, a garment is like a tree without roots or water without a source, even the most skilled designers and tailors cannot create clothing. Therefore, fabric can be considered one of the three essential elements of clothing. The quality of the fabric directly impacts the quality of the garment, and different fabrics play a decisive role in the final style and characteristics of the garment, affecting its color, shape, and other aspects.
Children's clothing, as a branch of the clothing industry, is no exception. We have a thorough understanding of the properties and characteristics of various children's clothing fabrics, allowing us to select suitable clothing when buying clothes for children.
Common clothing fabrics mainly include cotton, linen, silk, wool, chemical fiber, and blended fabrics. Let's take a look at their characteristics.
1. Cotton. Cotton is one of the most common fabrics for children's clothing, very suitable for children's skin, and ideal for making children's undergarments. Cotton has good warmth retention, is light and soft, gentle and close-fitting, and has good water absorption and breathability. It is especially the best choice for infants and toddlers. However, cotton clothing also has some drawbacks: it is prone to shrinkage and wrinkles, and its appearance is not stiff enough, making it unsuitable for outerwear.
2. Linen. Linen is also a historically significant clothing fabric. Linen shares many characteristics with cotton, such as good water absorption and breathability. It also has high strength and good thermal conductivity. The downside is that the fabric is relatively rough and stiff, and prolonged contact with the skin can be uncomfortable, making it unsuitable for underwear.
3. Silk. Silk is a famous high-end clothing material in ancient China. Silk is characterized by its thinness, close fit, softness, breathability, smoothness, vibrant colors, and good luster. When made into garments, it is elegant, comfortable, and luxurious. However, it also has obvious shortcomings: it is easily wrinkled, does not absorb water well, is not very sturdy, and is prone to fading.
4. Wool. Wool, also known as woolen fabric, is strong, durable, wrinkle-resistant, soft to the touch, elastic, and warm. The downside is that it is difficult to wash.
5. Chemical fiber. Chemical fiber has bright colors, good softness, and a smooth, comfortable feel. However, it is not wear-resistant, is afraid of high temperatures, does not absorb water well, is not breathable, and is easily deformed at high temperatures. Chemical fiber is a relatively low-grade fabric and is rarely used today.
6. Blended fabric. Blended fabrics combine the advantages of various fabrics such as cotton, linen, silk, wool, and chemical fibers. They offer good water absorption, breathability, and softness, while avoiding the shortcomings of various fabrics. They are also relatively low-cost and have become one of the most widely used fabrics.
