THE

DENIM PROJECT


BRIEF The project aims to take the students through a journey of the dazzling blue fabric through the world of indigo which in other term is called denim. To enhance the knowledge of the most versatile and sought after fabric that has a twill weave and warp dyed in indigo. The journey iniates from understanding the cotton story to it’s core and the process it undergoes from a raw material to a garment. The purpose of the research was to understand denim and cotton historically, culturally and socially. After thorough understanding of denim, our next task was research deim internationally through selecting a particular brand. Our next task was to design a denim collection on the basis of research and understanding previously done. For this, a narrative was built around a character of our own alter ego. Following through the process of of mmod and inspiration, we then connected the personality of character to various denim technique and juxtaposed them together in order to create a create denim range out of it.


DENIM IS A WAY OF LIFE, IT IS A LOVE THAT NEVER FADES. . .


COTTON The fabric of life..


Cotton is a natural fibre harvested from from the cotton plant. It is one of the oldest fibres under human cultivation with traces over 7,000 years old recovered from archeological sites. It is also one of the commonly used natural fibre today. The term “cotton� refers to the part of the cotton plant that grows in the boll—the encasing for the fluffy cotton fibers. . Cotton is spun into yarn that is then woven to create a soft, durable fabric. . Fabrics are durable, resistant to abrasion . Absorbs and releases moisture quickly. PLANTATION . Cotton is native to most supbtropical regions. . . It grown during frost free periods, requires heavy rainfull and plenty of sunshine . deep, well-drained soils with good good nutrient content. . constant temperature between 18 to 30 degress.

Cotton is a staple fiber, which means it is composed of different, varying lengths of fibers. Cotton is made from the natural fibers of cotton plants, which are from the genus Gossypium. Cotton is primarily composed of cellulose, an insoluble organic compound crucial to plant structure, and is a soft and fluffy material. The cotton plant needs lots of sun, a long period without frost, and a good amount of rain.

The word “cotton� has Arabic origins, derived from the Arabic wor Qutun.

Herodotus, an ancient Greek historian, mentions Indian cotton in the 5th century BCE, When Alexander the Great invaded India, his troops started wearing cotton clothes that were more comfortable than their previous woolen ones.

A researcher has identified a 6,200-year-old indigo-blue fabric from Huaca, Peru, making it one of the oldest-known cotton textiles in the world. The latest archaeological discovery in Mehrgarh, Pakistan, puts the dating of early cotton cultivation and the use of cotton to 5000 BCE in the Indus Valley civilisation.

SPINNING WHEEL INTRODUCED (1350s)


The English East India Company (EIC) introduced the Britain to cheap calico and chintz cloth on the restoration of the monarchy in the 1660s.

EAST INDIA COMPANY

SWADESHI MOVEMENT (1918)

In 1918 Mahatma Gandhi started his movement for Khadi as relief programme for the poor masses living in India’s villages. Spinning and weaving was elevated to an ideology for self-reliance and selfgovernment. The Swadeshi movement, part of the Indian independence movement and the developing Indian nationalism, was an economic strategy aimed at removing the British Empire from power and improving economic conditions in India by following the principles of swadeshi which had some success

KHADI- FABRIC OF INDIAN INDEPENDENCE

BRITISH COLONISATION

Calico’s origins can be traced to a tiny weaving community in Kerala, the Saliyas. Chintz originally referred to glazed calico textiles, specically those imported from India, printed with designs featuring flowers and other patterns in different colours, typically on a light plain background. Chintz was originally a woodblock printed, painted or stained calico proND CHINTZ (1660) duced in India from 1600 to 1800 and popular for bed covers, quilts and draperies.

A MOVEMENT, A REVOLUTION

‘khadi was the material embodiment of an ideal’ that represented freedom from colonialism on the one hand and a feeling of self- reliance and economic self-sufficiency on the other.’

KINDS OF COTT GOSSYPIUM HIRSUTUM . Upland cotton . A short staple cotton fibre. . Found in central America, Mexico, Carribean, south Florida . Acoounts 90% of world cotton production

GOSSYPIUM BARBADENSE . Sea island cotton . Extra long staple cotton fibre. . Found in South America . Consists of 8% of world cotton production.


TON PLANTS GOSSYPIUM ARBOREUM . Grows on larger bushes, just like tree. . Native to India, Pakistan . Contains less than 2% of world production

GOSSYPIUM HERBACIUM . Levant cotton . Short stappled cotton . Native to Southern Africa, Arabian Peninsula . Contains less than 2% of world production


STAGES OF COTTON SEED TO MATURE CAPSULE

. After the cotton is picked, its made into a dense block- the tighter the module is compacted lesser is the seed cotton lost during storage and transportation. . The cotton is then tranported to a cotton gin. The purpose of cotton gining is to sepraete the cotton plant from the cotton lint. Once they are seperated, the seed goes to a crusher that will extract the oil that will go into food products. . The lint goes through lint cleaners before goin gto a coondenser and then a gin press where the cotton is compacted in bales. The bales are shipped to textile mills. . Common method of processing is ring spinning. Once in the mill, the bale is opened and the cotton fibres are raked to remove debris whihc might be stilll left behind . The fibres are then wrapped into a lap so that the carding machine can brush the fibres . Rollers are then used to reduce the fibres to uniform strands . It is then transferred to a spinning fram where the fibres are twisted and wounded on bobbins as yarn.

BT COTTON Bt cotton is an insect-resistant transgenic crop designed to combat the bollworm. Bt cotton was created by genetically altering the cotton genome to express a microbial protein from the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. In short, the transgene inserted into the plant's genome produces toxin crystals that the plant would not normally produce which, when ingested by a certain population of organisms, dissolves the gut lining, leading to the organism's death.

INDIGENOUS COTTON SPECIES ORGANIC COTTON & FAIR-TRADE PRACTICES Organic cotton is cotton that is produced and certified to organic agricultural standards. Its production sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and people by using natural processes rather than artificial inputs. organic cotton farming does not allow the use of toxic chemicals or GMOs (genetically modified organisms). Instead, it combines tradition, innovation and science to benefit the shared environment and promote a good quality of life for all involved.. • Reduces environmental footprint • Promotes safe work & better livelihoods • Fair price for sustainability • Impacts our food system & health

KALA COTTON Kala cotton is indigenous to Kachchh and by default organic, as the farmers do not use any pesticides and synthetic fertilizers.. It is a purely rain fed crop that has a high tolerance for both disease and pests, and requires minimal investment. It is both resilient and resurgent in the face of stressful land conditions. It forms a strong, coarse, stretchable fiber that is often used in denim. As it is difficult to produce fine quality textiles with it, as its short staple length translates to fewer twists per inch of yarn, over time its use has diminished significantly in mainstream markets. Kala Cotton is one of the few genetically pure cotton species remaining in India, and one of the only species of pure, old world cottons to be cultivated today on a large scale.

KHADI DENIM Khadi and Denim: two fabrics of distinct origins, histories and constitutions are now woven together in an inconspicuous but potentially significant marriage. Khadi denim is hand-spun, hand-dyed, and hand-woven by artisan communities from across villages of India. Khadi denim retains the originality of Khadi as the most sustainable fabric in the world. It takes a month to make the fabric, each with its own signature, character and weaver’s story. Being handmade it has an elasticity and comfort to it. There are certain stitches that have been designed from a hand stitch for denim to give it strength and flexibility.1 Shani Himanshu and Mia Morikawa founder of brand 11.11 and who together make up CellDSGN are shifting paradigms collaborating with Arvind Limited, India’s largest denim

KALA COTTON HAND SPUN DENIM STORY BY BRAND 11.11 CLOTH


ARVIND MILLS, GUJARAT

“The process, from plucking the cotton to hand stitching, is so time consuming. Everyone touching the denim has to be engaged with it on quite a personal level, you can see their intentions for the fabric like a personal signature. It has been incredible to document how the artisans infuse their life within this inanimate object in such a spirited way, kind of the opposite of what happens with conventional denim.� - Mia Morikawa



NATURAL DYEING Pigments, Colors and dyes extracted from the natural source of plants, colors from naturally ocurring ingredients. The majority of natural dyes are vegetable dyes from plant sources—roots, berries, bark, leaves, and wood—and other biological sources such as fungi and lichens. Archaeologists have found evidence of textile dyeing dating back to the Neolithic period. Natural dyes were the only source of colour for dyeing tiill the 19th c. Synthetic dyes were develooped only in the later half of 19th c.

EXTRACTION OF NATURAL DYES FROM PLANTS

Alkanet Root : (Alkanna Tinctoria) This will give colors from bluish grey to soft burgundy.

Osage Orange Dust: (Maclura Pomifer) Also available in two colors; bright yellow and gold. Two different colors can be obtained.

Indigo ndigo Natural: (Indigo Tinctotia) A recipe and reducing agent are needed. The color range that is produced is blue.

Cutch Extract: (Acacia Catechu) Cutch will remain fast even on cottons and silks. It is good for combinations and produces brown tones if used by itself.

Brazilwood Dust: (Caesalpania Echinata) This dye will give you reds. Before using the dust, expose it to the air and sprinkle with water and

Privet Berry : (Dactylopius Coccus) The little cochineal bug will give the most color when ground into a fine powder. Obtainable colors are shades of leaf green to forest green..


VAT DYEING Vat dyes can’t be directly applied and required vatting because it is insoluble in water. But vat dyes fastness properties is good among the all dyes. The word “vat� means vessels. The dye takes their generic name from vatting. The vat dyes are naturally obtained coloring materials from the ancient time and kept into wooden vat and make soluble in vat by the process of fermentation, so it is known as vat dyes.


Indigo is an ancient dye, sold as a striking and bold blue crystalline powder. It has been used in many civilizations and was popular in Mayan, Egyptian, Japanese and Indian cultures. Its common use is in creating the popular Shibori and tie dye fabrics as well as denim. Indigo was a natural dye which was extracted from plants but now it is synthetic. In India , The dye is produced by turning green leaves into brilliant blue dye through FERMENTATION, has been practiced for many years. In Mexico, nigeria, japan has its own spritual rituals, recipes and techniques for creating natural Indigo dye.

INDIGO a color that left it’s imprints and rules the world.. Indigofera tinctoria which is native to India which was the earliest major center for production and processing of indigo dye. From there it arrived to Ancient Greece and Rome where it was considered a luxury product. Other Asian countries like China, Japan and South East Asian na- tions also used indigo for centuries but India is considered oldest center of indigo dyeing. When it started to get exported in trade routes and found its way to Greek and Rome around 300 BC they named the pigment ‘indikon’ meaning ‘from India’ and it was considered a luxury item. It attracted the name “blue gold” for its strong performance as a high-value trading commodity.

. Naturally the dye itself does not actually exist in nature. The chemical found in plant leaves is really indican, a precursor to indigo


PROCESS OF INDIGO : PLANT TO PASTE 1. HARVESTING THE INDIGO : The indigiferna tinctoria was planted during Thailand’s rainy season in June. By September or October, the plants are ready to be pruned and used for making dye. 2. BUNDLING : We bundle the small leaf Indiofera tinctoria leaves together using stems as ties. The larger leaf varieties of indigo like Strobilanthes flaccidifolius can go straight into the bins. 3. SOAKING : Water is added to the bins. Heavy stones are used to press the color from the leaves during an overnight soak. The covered bins need to sit for about 24 hours, depending on the weather. 4. REMOVING THE BUDLES : The bundles are drained and removed. The plants are used for fertilizer. 5. THE BEATING PROCESS : The water and lime must be beaten for about 20 minutes – dipping the bowl in and out – oxidizing the mixture. The water changes from murky green to peacock blue to a frothy navy color. 6. COLLECTING THE PASTE : After the indigo paste precipitated to the bottom of the bin overnight, we carefully removed the brown water from the top. The paste is then collected by pouring it over mesh (collecting debris) then though a fine cotton cloth. 7. PREPARING THE VAT : Dyeing takes place in the green form of indigo which is known, confusingly, as white indigo. The paste is mixed with ash water, fruit sugars or rice whiskey, and left to ferment. After a few days of stirring and adding sugars, it’s ready to dye with. Keeping an indigo vat alive is tricky, but Patricia has continually nurtured this vat for 25 years.


DEN


NIM


Denim is a type of cotton twill textile, in which the weft passes under two or more warp threads. Warp threads of denim fabric are dyed in indigo while weft threads remain plain white. That is why denim is blue on the one side and white on the other. The name ‘denim’ derives from “de Nimes” meaning “from Nimes”.

HISTORY In 1851, in an endeavour to escape antisemitism and pursue financial prosperity, Loeb Strauss left his hometown Buttenheim, Germany to head for New York, where his brother owned a dry goods store (textile shop). After learning the trade for a couple of years and changing his name, Loeb, (now Levi) headed West to San Francisco during the California Gold Rush to set up his own branch of the family shop in a more profitable environment. ‘Levi Strauss & Co. Wholesale House’ had been born. During this era in San Francisco, most men were miners due to the lucrative promise of gold in the area.

KNIT DENIM FABRIC Knitted denim combining the appearance of woven denim with the knitted structures’ characteristics such as flexibility, softness, wrinkle resistance, user-friendliness, and comfortable.


TYPES OF DENIM 1. Raw denim This type of denim has not been washed or treated. Generally, it is worn for six months to a year without washing to make sure it forms to the wearer’s body. Raw denim enthusiasts often resort to putting their jeans in the freezer overnight to kill off microbes and bacteria. 2. Sanforized denim Most types of denim have been sanforized, which is the washing process that has resulted in modern denim fabric. While sanforized jeans are softer, they are also less durable, and they aren’t as personalizable as raw denim jeans. 3. Stretch denim With this type of denim, cotton has been mixed with spandex or a similar material. The resulting fabric is stretchier than normal denim, so it is commonly used in form-fitting applications like skinny jeans. 4. Crushed denim This type of denim features a weave that’s similar to velvet. It has a permanently wrinkled appearance that makes it appealing for jackets and skirts. 5. Selvedge denim Selvedge denim has a fringe at the end, and this fabric is commonly used to make jackets. 6. Acid wash denim This type of denim features an iconic mottled appearance. It’s made by washing raw denim in a strong acid that eats away at the dye. 7. Poly denim The term “poly denim” is widely used to refer to denim products that are made with a mix of cotton, polyester, and any number of other artificial fibers. Along with polyester, materials like lyocell and nylon are sometimes added to cotton to make denim products. Some purists would say that poly denim is not “real” denim.


DENIM MANUFACTURING PROCESS . After the cotton yarn has been spun, starts the denim process . Warping arranging a convenient number of warp yarns of related length so that can be collect on a single warp beam as a continuous sheet of yarns to be dyed together . Yarn Dying. In this process, scouring, washing, dyeing and drying is done. . Next, weaving is done here by using a dyed warp yarn and a grey weft yarn. Different types of weaves are done based of the requirement of the type of twill teave. . Equalizing or heat setting is done to control fabric shrinkage percentage. special types of weft yarn are heated here so that it can’t create high shrinkage. . Finally, sanforizing is done which is a controlled compressive shrinkage process, applied on fabric to achieve shrinkage before making the garments.

An alter ego means an alternative self, which is believed to be distinct from a person’s normal or true original personality. Finding one’s alter ego will require finding one’s other self, one with different personality. It is like a character building for the unseen side of oneself. A PERSONALITY WE WISH TO BE SOMETHING ‘IMAGINATIVE’ THE UNSEEN SIDE.
