“…In Figure 1 and Figure 2, examples of woven and knitted seersucker fabric can be observed. When their historical background is examined, it is seen that seersucker fabrics were traded by various companies in the East Indies in the 1600s [7]. However, it is understood from the written records of this period that "crimped" fabrics, which were woven with high twisted yarns and had a seersucker-like surface appearance, were traded in Anatolia in 1640 (Figure 3) [8,9].…”

“…It was very popular in the British colonies as it was a comfortable and lightweight fabric in hot climates and exuded elegance. After crossing the oceans, seersucker fabrics began to be accepted in America as fabrics that could be used by the workers after a while [7]. These fabrics, which were initially used for workers' clothes, started to be worn/preferred by people belonging to the upper class since the 20th century.…”

Nowadays, the increasing social consciousness on the protection of nature and, at the same time, the seeking for comfort and easiness caused by the pandemic, increase the interest in easy-to-use, comfortable textile products produced with natural raw materials. Seersucker woven fabrics are highly preferred in recent years due to their features such as providing wearing comfort and being user-friendly by not requiring ironing. However, in order to provide the three-dimensionality/wrinkle effect in woven seersucker fabrics in the currently used methods, it is necessary to use elastane in the weft/warp or to use double beams during production. At this point, it is not possible to produce completely natural fabric in the method using elastane, and in the other method, a special several warp and machine requirements are emerging. In this study, the literature on seersucker fabrics was reviewed and experimental seersucker weaving applications were carried out. Studies have been carried out in order to produce fabrics using completely natural raw materials (cotton), to improve production efficiency and to increase design possibilities. In this context, instead of the traditional methods used in seersucker fabric creation, seersucker fabric production was carried out with a single beam on the weaving machine by using different weaves in the dobby for fabric design. In this way, it has been provided that the seersucker weaving process can be performed with a single beam on any desired machine by using existing direct warps without the need for a special warp preparation.
