“…It is also known as 'Climate Theory', and it proposes that humans evolved clothing to adapt to the harsh climatic conditions they encountered, to serve specific functions, such as animal skin was used for heat and insulation; tied around the feet for warmth and comfort on long hikes while leaves or barks were used to hide the genital sex organs. (Aishwariya, 2018) Furthermore, clothing has been worn since ancient times to bring good luck, fend off the evil eye, and protect against bad spirits. For example, Cowry shells, which resembled a woman's genetical organs, were used in clothing and accessories to shield women from the curse of sterility, as it was regarded as the greatest fear in ancient times.…”

Evidence of the very first clothing is mostly indirect. Almost all of what we know about early clothes is based on conjecture and assumption. It is impossible to say when humans first started wearing garments. Based on the cave drawings, carved figures and other such evidences including remnants and traces of very early cloths, the archeologists suggested that humans may have begun wearing clothing between 100,000 to 500,000 years ago. Neanderthal man, who lived between 200,000 B.C.E. to 30,000 B.C.E., learnt to use the hides of the animals they hunted to keep themselves warm and dry, referred as the first known person to fabricate clothing. It's also possible that clothes were designed for other functions at first, such as adornment, worship, or prestige, and were later discovered to be useful as well. This paper includes the investigation about need and psychology behind the origin of clothing through some fundamental theories of clothing and their applications to perform very specific functions. This research aims to reveal fashion concepts, as well as the path from prehistoric man's clothing demands to present fashion trends. Furthermore, it lays the foundation for those who are keen to learn fashion by starting a discussion on why people wear clothes so that the readers/ fashion graduates and professionals can recognize the motivations behind the desires of individuals in order to design and construct clothes in creative ways to maximize wearer’s satisfaction level.

“…Many of the researchers interested in recycling, study on finding proper ways for gathering and classifying textile waste, life cycle assesment for sustainability, besides some of the reserchers examine economic challanges as well as advantages of textile waste management. Observations and development trials for effective recycling is continued by the researchers [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22].…”

In this study blanket trimmings and mechanically recycled fibers were blended and softly pre-needlepunched to be used as innerlayers of conventional needle-punched nonwovens. The outer layers from three types of raw materials (polypropylene, recycled polyester and mechanically recycled fibers) and the control groups were produced by classical needle-punching at two different needle-punch densities. Abrasion resistance and bending properties of the end products were investigated considering recycled layer ratio, raw material type and needle-punching density through standard test methods. Among all types, the highest abrasion cycles and bending rigidity values were observed for the PP outer layered products. Increase in needling density increased the abrasion cycles between 10%-20% and increased bending rigidity 3%-8% among the overall. Comparing the fabrics with recycled layer of 20% to control groups, abrasion resistance was preserved between 67% -75% and bending rigidity was preserved between 86%-93% at overall.
