Abstract: Textile fibrous materials are used for making fashion utility products in day to day use. These fibers find applications in polymer blends, composites, fiber reinforce plastics, bio-medical textiles and many such high end uses. However, fibers like merino wool, pashmina and angora fibers are some of the natural animal fibers which are obtained in nature and find wide applications if converted into usable fashion products. These natural fibers are characterized with specific microstructure which can be tapped to design and create innovative fashion products.
