Abstract
In the production of textile materials, color plays a vital role, and it is paramount to commercial success. The light source, size of the sample, number of layers and background, and surrounding colors are the factors that determine the color of an object. In this chapter, various types of interaction of light with textiles have been discussed. This chapter outlines the color and designs its relationship to the textiles can be discussed. Theoretical aspects of light and its reflection on the different types of fabric are reviewed. Additionally, the influence of hue, tone, and texture on the fabric appearance has been discussed.
