Abstract
Woolen fabric is the main fabric in suit manufacture regardless of fashion visual or quality request consideration. Interlinings play an important role to improve the formability, silhouette performance, and fabric hand value, which enhance suit performance and quality. The purpose of this study is to subjectively analyze the hand value of woolen fabric with interlinings and to assist in exploring the judges gender and education background influence on evaluation results. A subjective test was created using a questionnaire based on AATCC EP5. Four kinds of hand values (stiffness, softness, smoothness, and total hand value) were evaluated by 40 judges in two panels to evaluate the judges’ gender and education background influence on fabric hand value evaluation. The results show overall consistency on both panels.
