The popularity of Sustainable clothing is increasing day by day. Consumers are more interested to consider sustainable clothing design on their daily basis fashion but it is expensive to produce sustainable clothing, as there are less availability of natural fiber. Banana fiber is highly available and it can be a great source of sustainable clothing to meet the consumer demand and banana fiber can be a replacement of cotton fibre. The aim of this project work is to observe the dye ability of banana fiber with synthetic dyes such as vat, acid, basic and reactive dyes were studied. Before dyeing, scouring and bleaching of banana fiber was done and whiteness index was measured. Finally after dyeing, color fastness to wash, color fastness to rubbing was examined.
