Clothing and transport

It seems kind of miss balance but clothing and transport are inter-related. I myself own a dying firm where we used to prepare, stitch garments for some big names in the industry including Van Hussein.
Our business is India based and we are having at a time around 5 shipment orders from the companies namely van Hussein, cotton county and outlook.
Here roads are so busy and we need to deliver our goods as soon as possible, we have searched for many movers and packers companies in Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula and other nearby states.We first chooses a company whose name i don't want to mention but those guys were too undisciplined to work with. That movers and packers company was not reliable to transport our clothing's to different parts in country(mainly north India. After 3 months we just broke our contract with them on the basis on unsatisfactory results.
A friend of mine then introduced me with a transportation company called Abi International packers and movers. I am really thankful to that person as from the last 5 years i am so much satisfied with their results and i am fully confident about them. That company is simply the best Movers in Chandigarh as per i know and as per observed by me in the course of 10 years of my experience.

Tribal clothing inspiring new generation

It might seems contradictory but Tribal clothing of all times has inspired many young designers to create some luxuries dresses.

According to a leading designer of Italy,"we all need some motivation while working, my motivation is the trends of our ancestors".

Tribal cloths are very attractive due to the sensible exposure they present and their comfort.
People use to wear them everywhere from their war grounds to bed. These clothes provide some exposure which is so attractive that it is almost unbeatable.
Their winter clothes were much more warmer than the winter clothes as seen on tv.

lace

Lace is an openwork fabric, patterned with open holes in the work, made by machine or by hand. The holes can be formed via removal of threads or cloth from a previously woven fabric, but more often open spaces are created as part of the lace fabric. Lace-making is an ancient craft. True lace was not made until the late 15th and early 16th centuries. A true lace is created when a thread is looped, twisted or braided to other threads independently from a backing fabric.
Originally linen, silk, gold, or silver threads were used. Now lace is often made with cotton thread. Manufactured lace may be made of synthetic fiber. A few modern artists make lace with a fine copper or silver wire instead of thread.

seersucker

Seersucker is a thin, all-cotton fabric, commonly striped or checkered, used to make clothing for spring and summer wear. The word came into English from Hindustani (Urdu and Hindi), which originates from the Persian words "shir o shekar", meaning "milk and sugar", probably from the resemblance of its smooth and rough stripes to the smooth texture of milk and the bumpy texture of sugar. Seersucker is woven in such a way that some threads bunch together, giving the fabric a wrinkled appearance in places. This feature causes the fabric to be mostly held away from the skin when worn, facilitating heat dissipation and air circulation. It also means that pressing is not necessary.
Common items of clothing made from seersucker include suits, shorts, and robes. The most common colors for it are white and blue; however, it is produced in a wide variety of colors, usually alternating colored stripes and puckered white stripes slightly wider than pin stripes.

african slavery trade

Systems of servitude and slavery in African societies was common in many parts of Africa, as it was in most of the ancient world. In most African societies the enslaved people were indentured servants fully integrated into the society. When the Atlantic slave trade began, many local slave systems changed and began supplying captives for slave markets outside of Africa.

tribal houses

Tribal house is a subgenre of house music similar in structure to deep house, but providing elements of ethnic or indigenous musical percussions (typically conga drums or its synthesized derivative). The genre remains one of the most minimalist in the history of electronic dance music since the appearance of house in the mid-eighties and up to the recent days.

Tribes

A tribe, viewed historically or developmentally, consists of a social group existing before the development of, or outside of, states.


Many anthropologists use the term tribal society to refer to societies organized largely on the basis of kinship, especially corporate descent groups .
Some theorists hold that tribes represent a stage in social evolution intermediate between bands and states. Other theorists argue that tribes developed after, and must be understood in terms of their relationship to, states.
