Abstract
Various motifs collected from traditional textiles and costumes of Meitei community of Manipur were documented followed by screening of designs in terms of suitability for adaptation on apparel items by the researcher. In this, 30 motifs were selected. Adaptation of designs on Salwar-Kameez was done on computer by using suitable software. Out of 15 developed designs, three designs for Salwar- Kameez were selected by judges to develop final products. Stencil and hand block printing techniques were used in printing apparel items. The six designed apparel items were highly acceptable and have enough market potential.
