The textile and textile product (TPT) industry is a leading industry for national economic growth. The existence of its performance relies on various factors that turn out to be vulnerable to fluctuations, including the fulfillment of raw materials in the form of cotton fiber from import dominance. Therefore, disruption of the performance of the textile industry will also stimulate disruption to Indonesia's economic growth. This study aims to analyze the determinants of the development of textile industry performance. For this reason, a quantitative approach is used with econometric models prepared based on the Cobb-Douglas theory of production functions. The model construction uses secondary time series data for the period 1992-2021 sourced from the World Bank, Bank Indonesia, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the Central Statistics Agency (BPS). The findings show that the terminology of the development of the performance of the Indonesian textile industry includes capital, labor absorption, world cotton fiber prices, inflation, textile exports, the Covid-19 pandemic, and the global food crisis in 2007/2008. Therefore, several policy recommendations were submitted to encourage more massive TPT machine restructuring programs, improve the skills of TPT human resources (HR), provide incentives for Local Ease of Export Destinations (KLTE), and re-intensify the #banggabuatanindonesia campaign.

Anthropometry is a widely used tool across scientific disciplines like, clinical nutrition for assessing growth, body composition and anticipating the health risks, and clothing industry for customized designing. The conventional tools such as the calipers and measuring taps are now being replaced by the digital devices. Among digital devices, the latest technology revolves around low cost 3-D optical imaging techniques which finds their application in all domains including clinical, research and even day-today lives. The literature survey here was carried out in SCOPUS and fifteen research articles, meeting the inclusion criteria, were selected for this review. The study indicated the propensity of the USA and image processing technologies in contactless anthropometric measurements. The consistent studies since 1996 and the domination of the application of the anthropometric data in health services and textile industry suggest necessity of this study. This study utilizes the domain of the optical imaging techniques and provide an overview of the potential applications, operational details and validation studies. The contactless anthropometry is rapidly transforming the static and dormant areas of ergonomics with numerous research opportunities and novel applications.

The research is conducted in the critical eco-linguistics domain, an umbrella term for diverse academic inquiries and empirical evidence. The aim of the article is the analysis of English words and lexical structures used to verbalize two major aspects of sustainable fashion as a new movement and world vision – ethical fashion and conscious fashion with the focus on animals in fashion and thrifting. Sustainable fashion has a number of dimensions categorized as conscious, green, and circular, eco-friendly fashion, ethical fashion, vegan fashion. The goal of conscious fashion has much in common with environmentalism and green marketing. Ethical fashion focuses on exploitation in fashion, of both animals and humans, and encompasses animal rights, fair trade of animal-related products, working conditions in fashion industry what are quite often not decent. Vegan fashion promotes non-animal plant-based textiles and man-made fabrics. Circular fashion centres on clothes recycling, extending terminology to upcycling, downcycling and regenerating. Thrifting, renting, and sharing are to popularize slow fashion and conscious fashion. Coverage of fashion sustainability in mass media resulted into coinage of new eco-conscious words and word collocations and their increasing frequency. Several word-forming models dominate in the sustainable fashion terminology including numerous V-ing words to describe manufacturing processes and activities, non+N, non+Adj coinages to emphasize denial of traditional practices. Some words (animal, cruelty) and word-forming components (eco-) have become more noticeable in sustainable fashion in the past decade. The adjective 'sustainable' is among 1% top words in Modern English (Merriam-Webster dictionary online, n.d.) though the collocation ‘sustainable fashion’ is not fixed yet by this dictionary or its counterparts. Thus sustainable fashion is to be conceptualized to find its way to dictionaries as well as to mentality of fashion designers, clothes manufacturers and consumers worldwide. Increasing vocabulary of sustainable fashion should become more familiar to consumers to push them to rethinking their lifestyle, clothing choices, becoming eco-conscious.

The present social and environmental contexts are very importantly governed by the interplay of crafts, fashion, and sustainability. Their efficient combination contributes to employment generation and the creation of new economic avenues for the country. This is the key focus issue that research studies should attempt to achieve. There is a need to understand “craft”, with a perspective that exerts strength, glory, social and cultural connections. In present times, “Kalamkari” is an extremely popular Indian traditional textile craft in which, patterns are drawn with bamboo sticks called “kalam” on cotton fabric. This is a derivative of patterning the fabric with resist and mordant painting and then natural dyeing to pattern them. In relation to this painting tradition, the word “Chintz,” is a popular terminology from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in the world of textiles. The term according to the researcher is referred to a textile, as well as a technique, involving the mordant and resist painting with natural dyes on cotton fabrics only. This textile, with its awestruck designs, revolutionized global trade and made India popular globally. During that period, the Chintz were exported to various countries like Japan, Thailand, Africa, and most importantly to European countries. The Indian Chintz export to European countries reached immense popularity, revolutionizing the “Chintz Craze” with drastically increased demand. During the industrial revolution in Europe, these beautiful hand-crafted textiles created a threat to the European textile Industry. Hence the chintz export from India was banned, which led to the downfall in their demand and the gradual extinction of these textiles along with the meticulously perfected techniques involved in making them. In 1958, Kamala Devi Chattopadhyay tried to revive this technique (mordant and resist painting with a bamboo pen) and termed it “Kalamkari”. This led to the evolution of two different forms related to this ancient craft based on the place it was revived, namely Kalamkari from Sri-Kalahasti and Machilipatnam. This paper is an attempt to retrieve the rich history of the Indian Chintz, with its main characteristic features, technique, and find differences between the present styles with the ancient traditional forms of mordant and resist painting technique with natural dyes. The researcher has made an earnest effort in establishing and retrieving the lost identity of this textile. It was also observed that there is a difference between the traditional style and revived forms (Sri-kalahasti and Machilipatnam) styles with respect to the materials, motifs, colors, and workmanship, as observed from painted pieces that were studied.

It is no secret to anyone the important role of national industries and the need to improve their image among the Iraqi citizen because of his role in supporting the local economy, so this research came to address the public relations methods used to improve the image of the local product (a field study of public relations activities in the General Company for the Textile and Leather Industry), Where the first topic of the research dealt with the methodological framework represented by presenting the research problem and its importance, defining its objectives and the scientific method followed in it, reviewing the research tools with defining concepts and terminology, while the second topic dealt with the theoretical framework and dealt with it The researcher pointed to the importance of public relations in the General Company for the Textile and Leather Industry.

Aquesta tesi s’emmarca en un projecte de majors proporcions encapçalat per la redacció del Glossarium Mediae Latinitatis Cataloniae, que analitza les manifestacions romàniques en la documentació llatina altomedieval conservada en els comtats situats al territori que posteriorment rebé el nom de Catalunya. En les nostres fonts s’hi inclouen sobretot testaments, llegats, acords i confirmacions de compra-venda. Quant als límits cronològics, els textos notarials objecte d’aquesta recerca se situen entre els anys 800 i 1150. El fet d’acotar la investigació a un àmbit tan present en les societats d’arreu, el vocabulari tèxtil, respon a la voluntat d’intentar observar la vida quotidiana de la societat de l’època. D’aquesta manera, a més d’una anàlisi purament filològica basada en l’estructura lèxica de la llengua continguda en els textos, s’obté una panoràmica social que si més no reflecteix certs aspectes de la realitat quotidiana dels individus que habitaven les nostres terres ara fa més de mil anys. El corpus obtingut consta de 186 entrades i 24 subentrades que s’han distribuït en tres grans apartats: els draps laics, els draps eclesiàstics, i els tipus de teixits i materials de confecció. Finalment a mode d’apèndix s’hi ha afegit una última part, que inclou 27 ètims, dedicada a les referències als colors i les provinences de les peces tractades. Malgrat que en aquell temps encara s’estipulava que els documents oficials s’havien d’escriure en la llengua de cultura per excel•lència –el llatí–, la comunicació oral ja havia mutat cap a un parlar divers que més endavant, en aquest territori concret, es coneixeria amb el nom de català. Així doncs, la traça lingüística de l’escrivent jugava un paper decisiu en la redacció de qualsevol document, ja que era ell qui decidia com transcrivia en llatí un afer que s’havia donat, per via oral, en un parlar romànic. D’aquí que en els textos sovint hi apareguin mots amb una marcada empremta romànica, així com oscil•lacions de caràcter divers. Molts termes, a més, apareixen escrits sota múltiples formes, ja que l’escriba sovint vacil.lava a l’hora reproduir mots en la majoria de les ocasions només vius en la parla oral. D’altra banda, el sistema de casos del llatí, així com la formació del nombre i el gènere, són testimoni d’un procés de reestructuració, segurament fruit dels minvats coneixements lingüístics dels escribes i els seus intents d’adaptar el parlar popular a la llengua de cultura. Mitjançant l’anàlisi dels vestits, els draps o els teixits podem percebre certes influències culturals provinents d’altres pobles, que segurament repercutiren també en la resta d’àmbits vitals. En aquest sentit cal destacar el fet que, malgrat que la gran majoria dels mots presenten una clara ascendència llatina, l’empremta de l’àrab o el germànic no hi és pas absent. El primer enriquí el vocabulari de l’època amb designacions de teles i vestits importats de la Hispània musulmana; el segon ens aportà nombrosos termes vinculats a la indumentària i a la confecció tèxtil provinents del contacte que les guarnicions establertes al limes i el seu seguici mantingueren amb la població germànica. Al llarg d’aquesta recerca s’ha pogut comprovar que, si bé la majoria de les veus es revelen comunes als territoris romànics, determinats mots constitueixen innovacions pròpies de la nostra regió. D’altres, més enllà del domini lingüístic català, abarquen la totalitat de la península Ibèrica. D’altra banda, en aquest moment d’impàs tant lingüistic com cultural, econòmic i social, es pot apreciar el gran canvi que suposà el tombant del segle XI, punt d’inflexió en la trajectòria d’una societat marcada per l’evolució econòmica d’una noblesa assedegada d’ostentació. Comparat amb el segle X, al segle XI el panorama havia canviat radicalment. Les classes benestants i les jerarquies eclesiàstiques es començaren a preocupar per l’ornamentació, aviat present tant en el parament de la llar i de l’església com en la indumentària.
This PhD thesisl is closely related to a much bigger project leaded by the Glossarium Mediae Latinitatis Cataloniae, which analyzes the romance traces contained in the huge Latin early medieval documental collections kept in many Catalan archives. Our documental sources are basically wills, donations, agreements and buying and selling contracts written between 800 and 1150. This is not only a philological research based on the structure of the language contained in the texts, but also an attempt to look at the daily life of all kinds of people living in our region through their clothes and fabrics. Our corpus has 186 entries and 24 subentries distributed in three large groups: lay clothes and fabrics, ecclesiastical clothes and fabrics, and materials. On the other hand, there is an appendix at the end of this thesis on the very few references to colours and origin of the garments. This part has 27 entries. Through the analysis of the garments and fabrics one realizes influences of many cultures on the Catalan one. Although most of the words have a clear Latin origin, the Arabic and German traces are also present. The first one contributed with fabric designations and clothes imported from Al-Andalus, while the second one provided us with textile and dressmaking vocabulary.

The film industry, as a captivating visual medium, thrives on its ability to intertwine reality and fiction, captivating audiences with compelling storylines. At the heart of film production lies the significance of props, instrumental in bringing characters to life and shaping the narrative. These inanimate objects serve as the backdrop to characters, establish settings, time periods, and cultural contexts, and often act as powerful symbols influencing societal trends. This research delves into the creation of realistic medical props for medical drama (films) scenes, where real props are not viable due to safety concerns. The challenge lies in crafting dummy props that convincingly mimic real objects, ensuring the safety of actors while maintaining an immersive experience for audiences. While international film industries rely on specialized design agencies and facilities, the Sri Lankan film industry faces limitations in accessing such resources and dedicated design institutes. Therefore, the creation of low-cost yet authentic props becomes a significant obstacle. To address this, the research combines technical expertise, medical knowledge, technical skills, and hands-on experience to develop props adhering to safety standards while upholding a high level of realism. These props enhance storytelling in medical dramas (films), providing a compelling and immersive experience. Creating realistic and safe props commences with a meticulous analysis of the film’s script and scene requirements. For medical drama scenes, extensive research into medical equipment, procedures, and terminology ensures accuracy and authenticity. Consultation with medical experts provides valuable insights during the design process, while material selection ensures the dummy props closely resemble their real counterparts in appearance and texture. Medical sequences demand props that can withstand physical interactions without endangering actors. Throughout the creation process, continuous collaboration between prop designers, directors, and actors is crucial to ensure seamless integration of props into the film’s narrative and performances. Visual representations and simulations aid in refining functionality and appearance, resulting in a coherent visual style aligned with the film’s vision. In conclusion, this research successfully demonstrates the creation of realistic and safe props for medical drama (films) in the Sri Lankan film industry. The fusion of technical expertise, medical knowledge, and creative ingenuity has produced props that elevate the cinematic experience while prioritizing actor safety. By overcoming limitations in accessing specialized design agencies, this research offers a practical and cost-effective solution catering to the unique needs of the Sri Lankan film industry, contributing to its growth and development.
