History of textile industry in India

The archaeological surveys and studies have found that the people of Harappan civilization[4] knew weaving and the spinning of cotton four thousand years ago. Reference to weaving and spinning materials is found in the Vedic Literature also. There was textile trade in India during the early centuries.A block printed and resist-dyed fabrics, whose origin is from Gujarat is found in tombs of Fostat, Egypt.[4] This proves that Indian export of cotton textiles to the Egypt or the Nile Civilization in medieval times were to a large extent.Large quantity of north Indian silk were traded through the silk route in China[5] to the western countries. The Indian silk were often exchanged with the western countries for their spices in the barter system. During the late 17th and 18th century there were large export of the Indian cotton to the western countries to meet the need of the European industries during industrial revolution. Consequently there was development of nationalist movement like the famous Swadeshi movement which was headed by the Aurobindo Ghosh. There was also export of Indian silk, Muslin cloth of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa to other countries by the East Indian company. Bhilwara is known as textile city.

HONG KONG: India's fashion industry is just a few stitches away from being rated at par with its counterparts in US, Britain and France, Hong Kong's best known tailor has said. "With some hard work, India's fashion industry can match those in New York, London and Paris. I see India becoming a leading fashion centre in seven to 10 years," Manu N Melwani, who counts among his clients two former US Presidents, tennis star Serena Williams and pop icon Michael Jackson.
"India has all the ingredients - a huge variety of fabrics and human talent - to make it big on the international stage. However, Indian fashion designers have to undergo some formal training abroad to know the latest trends and requirements of the global fashion market," Melwani, the proprietor of "Sam's Tailor", told PTI.
