The author presents his thoughts on colour and textile dyeing, which has always been a skilled craft. Apart from the technical skills involved he notes the universal human custom of dyeing textiles for clothing and also of decorating the body with colour. Colouring a textile product or an animal skin turns it into a product of human culture rather than a natural product. Even fabrics which look natural have been subjected to many processes to achieve that look. As well as signifying distance from nature, colour also communicates certain facts about the wearer eg. uniforms, religious vestments etc. Colours also have certain associations eg. pink for girls, black for mourning etc, but these are generally complex and dependent on many factors, age, culture etc. Overall colour is the aspect of clothing which has the greatest social and psychological effect.
