2. • The world's oldest preserved garment, discovered by Flinders Petrie, is a "highly
sophisticated" linen shirt from a First Dynasty Egyptian tomb at Tarkan,c. 3000
BC: “The shoulders and sleeves have been finely pleated to give form-fitting
trimness while allowing the wearer room to move. The small fringe formed
during weaving along one edge of the cloth has been placed by the designer to
decorate the neck opening and side seam.
• The shirt sometimes had frills at the neck or cuffs. In the sixteenth century,
men's shirts often had embroidery, and sometimes frills or lace at the neck and
cuffs and through the eighteenth century long neck frills, or jabots, were
fashionable. Coloured shirts began to appear in the early nineteenth century, as
can be seen in the paintings of George Caleb Bingham. They were considered
casual wear, for lower-class workers only, until the twentieth century. For a
gentleman, "to wear a sky-blue shirt was unthinkable in 1860 but had become
standard by 1920 and, in 1980, constituted the most commonplace event."
History
3. There are two main categories of fibres used: natural fibre and man-
made fibre (synthetics or petroleum based).
Some natural fibres are linen, the first used historically, hemp,
cotton, the most used, ramie, wool, silk and more recently Bamboo
or Soya.
Some synthetic fibres are Polyester, Tencel, Viscose, etc.
Polyester mixed with cotton (poly-cotton) is often used.
Fabrics for shirts are called shirting.
The four main weaves for shirting are Plain Weave, Oxford, Twill
and Satin. Broadcloth, Poplin and end-on-end are variations of the
plain weave. After weaving, finishing can be applied to the fabric.
