A seam connecting fabric edges is formed by surrounding a first fabric edge with a first plush material strip suitable for the attachment of a hooked material. The first plush material strip defines a first front surface and a first rear surface. A second fabric edge is surrounded with a second plush material strip having a second front surface and a second rear surface. A single strip of a hooked material is deployed behind the first rear surface and the second rear surface. Then, with the first surrounded edge substantially in contact with the second surrounded edge, a force is applied to engage hooks of the single strip of hooked material with said first rear surface and said second rear surface.

A sartorial and/or industrial design is provided that is suitable for defining an item of clothing made exclusively from natural-type fibres for a user and including at least one main portion including fabric arranged in straight grain with respect to the body of the user and a secondary portion including a fabric arranged bias-wise with respect to the body of the user that is arranged in an area of the body subject to higher traction than the rest of the body and essentially shaped like at least part of the area of the body.

A method for manufacturing an article of apparel from a fabric material includes forming a single textile element of fabric material, providing a plurality of cuts to the single textile element, folding the single textile element into an article of apparel, and sewing the article of apparel together along a single continuous stitching line. The textile element is tubular, and the single continuous stitching line encloses a back of the article of apparel.

A knit or woven article of unitary construction for forming a double-layer trim piece is provided. The article includes a first zone having a first set of apertures, a second zone having a second set of apertures, and a third zone interposed between the first zone and the second zone.
