Abstract

    A uniform is a set of standard clothing worn by members of an organization while participating in that organization's activity. In this study the uniforms of hotel (coats, aprons, bows, trousers, etc.) were performed by using different materials (linen, gabardine and popline fabrics) available in Egyptian markets. There designs inspired from Nubia folklore. The fabrics used were biopolished using cellulase enzyme to improve their quality (fuzzing and pilling). Physico-mechanical properties were measured. Dyeing of finished fabrics was carried out using reactive dyes.
