Abstract

The material that is used to produce jeans is known as denim. It is a highly comfy fabric that is 100% cotton twill. All throughout the world, this fabric is used to create a variety of clothing for men and women of all ages, including jeans, coats, shirts, handbags, and totes. The weft is rolled in vain under two or more rolls to create denim, which is distinguished from plain cotton by the ribbing. The process of weaving denim results in the familiar simple jeans by colouring the warp while leaving the flesh white. Denim was originally used for workers' clothing, but over time, it underwent numerous inventive modifications and additions to become the design icon it is today.
