Jack n Jill and their Jaded Jeans
Interesting Story of Jack n Jill and their basic denim jeans.. Jack went to city for searching job and Jill went to Beach with their friends… when they return to their village and, to their dismay, both their bleached jeans had turned yellow…………
How it being? …………..
Look on Story ……
Jack ‘n’ Jill, after returning from the hill, have grown into adolescent teens. Like any other member of the community, they had taken up to jeans as a symbol of youth.
Things went well for quite some time, as they started with basic denim. Then the new fashion came, where pre-bleached, faded denims were in vogue. So they bought new pairs. Jack went to town in search of a job while Jill went to the beach with her friends to enjoy her freedom. After one week, when both returned to their village and, to their dismay, both their bleached jeans had turned yellow!
Jill tried to wash them, though she is not supposed to wash jeans at least for one lunar month, but the dirty yellow tinge remained. She discussed the problem with her friends, teachers and learned men and women in village but could not find satisfactory answer.
A visiting consultant told her it was phenolic yellowing, which he had heard about from some other consultant.
Finally she approached a professor of textile chemistry. He asked the background details and concluded that this is nothing but Ozone Fading!
He narrated his experience and findings, which were fascinating and enlightening to both Jack ‘n’ Jill.
Indigo dyeing is carried out on continuous ranges, either in sheet form or in rope form.
Unlike conventional dyeing, this kind of yarn dyeing is in ring-dyed form, where dyestuff is not allowed to diffuse inside.
The ring-dyed yarn leads to a faded look on usage, because of loss of colour due to abrasion or wear a tear. Fading can also be enhanced artificially in garment form, by either mechanical, chemical or enzymatic assistants.
