Textile Industry Directory - Why not it's Free

What is more boring then a textile directory? Do you really want to know... The one thing more boring then a textile directory is an "empty" textile directory. Unfortunately, I have taken the time to put together a new Textile Industry Directory, but the bad news is that the site is basically starting on empty.

Has anyone seen the new movie "Wanted" with Angelina Jolie? Textiles are an important aspect of the movie. In order not to give away any of the story, I will say no more... I simply wanted to inform you that "textile weavers" had a staring role. Note: those of you that are weak of heart, I do not suggest for you to see the movie.

A disorganised, chaotic home will not make you relaxed.

Our home divided into many rooms and each room has its activities. The living room is there for a family gathering or the party, and the kitchen is

Today’s top international designers/brands such as Vivienne Tam and Shiatzy Chen have seeked inspiration from these traditional Chinese dresses for setting the modern oriental trend to celebrate the inheritance of Chinese clothing aesthetics. To promote “Hong Kong Week 2013@Taipei,” Institute of Textiles & Clothing (the Hong Kong Polytechnic University) a

Clothing and textile production and trade subsidies are under pressure today, as they have not been for many years. There has been a steady trend towards liberalisation in the sector worldwide. But many subsidies for the clothing, textile and its associated industries live on and can be vital for a company’s balance sheet. So, exactly which international and government organisations offer these handouts and how can they be secured? And where are those subsidies likely to survive in the future? j
