TRADITIONAL SUSSI WEAVE

Abstract

The classic Sussi weave is a symbol of South Asia’s textile (Sindh’s Textile Heritage), known for its vivid striped patterns and lightweight feel. This paper reviews the history, design features, challenges, and current state of Sussi weaving, while suggesting strategies for its preservation. It also highlights a new innovation using Sussi fabric for modern products such as ladies’ bags and laptop bags to keep this traditional craft relevant in today’s fashion and design.
