In a method for the application of an elastomer to both sides of a fabric layer, the fabric layer is placed onto a resilient support and the elastomer is applied to the fabric layer in a flowable state under pressure exclusively from one side and the resilient support is compressed during the application of the elastomer by the pressure of the elastomer.

A process for providing a water repellent substrate comprising: providing a dispersion in a liquid of discrete-length microfibers comprising a material adapted to be fluid under the processing conditions to be used; applying the dispersion to the substrate; optionally removing liquid from the microfibers and substrate or allowing the liquid to dry; and subjecting the microfibers to processing conditions under which the material is at least partly fluid, such that the microfibers deform to provide adhesion of microfibers with other microfibers, adhesion of the microfibers with the substrate or a mixture of adhesion with other microfibers and with the substrate.

An appliqu of the invention comprises a disposable carrier film onto which a release layer and PU inks are printed using layering techniques. The ink layers can be multicoloured and each colour is applied sequentially using a conventional screen-printing method. A back-up, a lacquer layer, and an adhesive layer are printed in sequence over the ink layers. The ink includes reflective particles providing the optical effect of a 3-dimensional appliqu. The artwork is created by overlapping design layers to controlled specification sequences. The ink, because of the additives, creates a desired colour tone, and this may be enhanced by layering of the ink in an overlapping region. Thus, there are three main regions, namely a central region with reflective ink, a shoulder region with overlapping matt and reflective inks and an outer region with only matt ink.

A method of forming a three-dimensional decorative cloth on a textile comprising steps of: providing a release paper, coating corrosion-resistant adhesive on the release paper in a screen printing manner, drying the corrosion-resistant adhesive; providing a decorative cloth, adhering the corrosion-resistant adhesive of the release paper on the decorative cloth in a heat transfer printing manner; providing a textile, forming an anticorrosive protection layer on the textile, removing the release paper from the decorative cloth, adhering the corrosion-resistant adhesive of the decorative cloth with the anticorrosive protection layer of the textile in a heat pressing manner; forming a corrosion layer on the decorative cloth in a screen printing manner so as to corrode the decorative cloth; washing the textile by water so to eliminate the corrosion layer, and washing the textile by soap so as to remove corroded portion of the decorative cloth.

A supporting garment article such as a brassiere comprises a layer of elastomer provided in a graduating manner such that the area density of the elastomer vanes across a first region of the garment article. Supporting garment articles of the present disclosure provide the support of a constructed bra while maintaining the comfort factor of an unconstructed bra such as a bralette. The present disclosure provides a superior medium support bra using graduated application of an elastomer such as silicone, bonding, extrusion and dry moulding techniques.
