Abstract

Tightly woven colored fabrics such as twills, denims, sateens, and poplins are provided with pattern areas thereon simulating the appearance of a printed design and wherein the pattern areas are of a color tone contrasting with the color of adjacent pattern areas and have a discernible softer texture imparting further contrast with the non-pattern areas. The contrasting tone colored pattern areas may either have a lighter color tone appearance than the non-pattern areas or a darker color tone appearance or the pattern areas may appear to change in color tone with respect to the background areas when the fabric is viewed at different angles. The contrasting tone colored pattern areas are defined by the exposed portions of the yarns forming the pattern areas having ruptured surface fibers extending from the surface of the fabric and presenting a fuzzy suede-like appearance to the pattern areas effecting a change in light reflection from the fabric and imparting a tactile relief effect to the pattern areas which provides further contrast between the pattern areas and the non-pattern areas.
