Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
This study aimed to explore drapability of 3D-printed auxetic structure textiles with different geometries through the digital image processing technique in order to showcase their potential applications in 3D-printed wearable product development. A 13 (textile samples) × 3 (repetition) experimental research design consisting of 10 3D-printed auxetic structure textiles and three traditional lace fabrics were utilized in this study. The findings indicate that 3D-printed multi-angular auxetic structures exhibited the highest level of drapability followed by sinusoidal and triangular auxetic structures; these multi-angular structure textiles with draping coefficient ranging from 26.82% to 31.43% have a great potential to simulate traditional lace-like fabrics. A statistically significant correlation also was found between drapability and weight of 3D-printed auxetic structure textiles. This study demonstrates a true potential of 3D-printed auxetic structure textiles as alternatives of traditional lace textiles and their application in the wearable product development.

Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
Fashionable hijab is a trend in Muslim societies worldwide. In Indonesia, hijab commercialization has been especially prominent. This study used consumer socialization theory to examine the relationship between hijab influencers (HIs), religious factors, attitudes toward fashionable hijab, and commodified hijab-style choices. In particular, we examined involvement with HIs, HIs' influence on hijab consumption, religiosity, and religious community involvement to investigate the mechanisms of consumer socialization. Structural equation modeling revealed that hijab influencers, as consumer socialization agents, reinforced positive attitudes toward fashionable hijab, whereas religious community involvement, as a social structural variable, had a negative effect. Finally, positive attitudes toward fashionable hijab positively influenced the pursuit of commodified hijab-style choices. These findings have practical implications for vendors targeting the Indonesian market by distinguishing commodified hijab styles from conservative hijab styles and identifying the factors influencing consumers.

Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
This study aimed to deepen the understanding of the influence of the properties of school uniforms that may contribute to discomfort and irritation for children with sensory overreactivity. The specific objectives were (a) to identify the difficulties that children with sensory overreactivity experience when wearing a school uniform and (b) explore possible adaptations of the school uniform that can reduce the discomfort and irritation caused by the uniform. In this exploratory, qualitative study, four focus group interviews were conducted with a total sample of 16 participants. Mothers and occupational therapists that live and work with children with sensory overreactivity participated in this study. During thematic analysis, three themes emerged as important to understand the discomfort caused by a school uniform: textiles, design, and construction. This study contributes to the literature on school uniforms and the sensory aspects of clothing. Guidelines for parents are presented and future research possibilities are discussed.

Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
The utilization of shape memory alloy (SMA) in shape memory fabric (SMF) has revolutionized thermal protective clothing, significantly enhancing its thermal protection. However, the cost- and time-consuming process of SMA shape memory training and performance testing can be optimized for improved efficiency. This study addresses this challenge by developing machine learning models to predict the thermal protection of a smart fabric system (SFS) with a SMF. The training data was sourced from the previous experimental studies, and six features significantly impacting thermal protection were identified. Results demonstrated that gradient boosting regressor (GBR) model exhibited the highest accuracy, with the SMA interval emerging as the most critical feature in determining thermal protection. Moreover, the GBR model predicted that SFS presented the best thermal protection when the dry SMF was woven by SMA of 2 cm interval and aramid 1414 of 20 roots/cm density, located between the moisture barrier and thermal liner vertically.

Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
In this study, we explored the church dress of African American women to determine the influences that motivated their style of dressing that seems to be disappearing today. Ten participants aged 70 to 100 were interviewed through an oral history approach. Analysis, including open and axial coding, was used to identify emergent themes. When viewed through the lens of Symbolic Interactionism, the participants both molded and created their identities through social interaction with fellow churchgoers. From the influence of their parents and family members in identifying the importance of church and dressing appropriately to working hard through sewing, borrowing, and shopping to creating outfits that represented their beliefs in God, to evaluating the dress of themselves, their peers, and younger women, the participants voiced a variety of reasons for wearing church dress.

Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
The purpose of this research was to understand students’ experiences viewing a digital narrated video tour of a physical fashion exhibition and evaluate its effectiveness using the constructivist learning perspective as it applies to museum learning. Formally written responses to an open-ended qualitative survey from 62 students were analyzed using a transcendental phenomenological approach. The digital tour offered an effective online object-based learning experience that enhanced students’ understanding of the impact of cultural influences on fashion changes and helped them identify changes in fashion design. The digital tour was also engaging and allowed students to construct their own knowledge and take something meaningful from the exhibition, which contributed to its effectiveness. Best practices for designing digital tours of physical fashion exhibitions were developed and included fostering multisensory engagement, providing viewers’ time for observation and reflection, and including multiple views and close-ups of garments.

Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
This study investigated how inconsistencies between corporate moral responsibility (CMR) messages and CMR actions undertaken by corporations impact consumers’ positive and negative word-of-mouth (PWOM and NWOM) intentions using the expectancy violation theory. It also investigated the moderation effect of different types of CMR issues and consumers’ shared values on the relation. Analyses of data collected from 1296 U.S. consumers revealed that participants’ word-of-mouth (WOM) intentions, both positive and negative, were impacted by inconsistencies between CMR initiatives and actions. When inconsistency was absent, highest PWOM intention was generated for issues related to workers and least for shareholders. Shared values significantly moderated the relation as well. When CMR message action was consistent, PWOM intention was higher for participants with high shared value (vs. low shared value). These findings add knowledge to the literature of CMR and guide corporate CMR-related communications.

Abstract: Clothing and Textiles Research Journal, Ahead of Print.
With(in) retail spaces, Black Americans operate in a space with historical ties to inequality, dehumanization, and exclusion. This qualitative study situates the Black beauty supply store within these political and culturally relevant histories. Millennial perceptions of beauty, relationship to their hair, and the history of Black beauty supply stores are briefly covered in the literature review. Black feminist thought and Black feminist geographies informed the data analysis of interview transcripts from 20 millennial Black women. The findings reveal that millennial Black women shop at the Black beauty supply store due to convenience and the variety in product assortment. Yet, the in-store surveillance and assumptions of criminality affect their psyche, resulting in disengagement from the store. Participants realized that fully satisfying beauty retail experiences do not exist for Black women. Despite this, millennial Black women continue to return to the store where they embrace and cultivate Black stylistic and beauty innovations.
