Development of Natural Dye Shades from Colored Hol Silk Wisdom to Expand the Silk Textile Product Innovation of the Termtem Studio Brand

Abstract

The development of natural dyes shades project from color Hol silk wisdom to expansion of silk textile products innovation aimed at studying and developing a body of knowledge and wisdom on natural dyeing From Hol cloth, applying the knowledge and techniques of natural dyeing wisdom from Hol cloth to design process of contemporary textiles, and experimenting on creative product prototypes development utilizing the concept of natural dyeing from Hol cloth good for making a Termtem Studio brand collection.

Methods included field trip study of characteristics and identity of Hol cloth patterns by collecting and analyzing secondary data and primary data from the area surveyed by experts and entrepreneurs in order to use it as a guideline for study natural dyes and textile products designs for Termtem Studio brand. Wisdom of natural dyeing from Hol cloth was experimented using standard dyeing technology. Data synthesis of silk colors obtained from the experiment was used for creating of color shades that was in line with color theory in order to have a body of knowledge on natural dyes from Hol silk wisdom for textile and design of innovative silk products for Termtem Studio brand. Making of prototype products collaborated with Termtem Studio brand, instructors, and experts on prototype creation for one collection.

Color shades acquired from data synthesis of Hol cloth wisdom from the experiment of dyeing silk, creation of natural dyes from Hol cloth, and proportional experiments in this study were determined by the researcher. Step 2 experiment with natural dyeing for a variety of shades by mixing natural dyes or repeated dyeing with indigo and wax using the ratio of indigo pot in Step 1 consisted of an experiment of red dye with wax overlaying with indigo, yellow dyeing with Khae core overlaying with indigo, yellow dyeing with Prahod bark overlaying with indigo, blue dyeing overlaying with indigo as well as orange dyeing with Khae and Prahod overlaying with wax.

Results from the analysis, experts, and entrepreneurs in fashion, dyeing silk threads that created natural dyes with Hol cloth process can create color shades used as a guideline for color selection in textile design and create color wheel of natural dyes consistent with universal color wheel by process of color comparison in Pantone CMYK and Pantone fashion home paper (TPX) systems. It is a family of colors suitable for drafted textile design for fashion process on the conceptual framework of craft textile art group that extends to semi-industrial fashion products, Mudmee silk pattern from motif, diamond pattern from the shape of alms bowl pattern for creating of basic shapes or as called in the Isan region Khom pattern. It is cut and rearranged following the notion of cultural identity and fashion.
