| | The Apparel Search glossary has been compiled
from numerous resources over the past several years.
In addition to receiving definitions from our viewers and friends,
we have also compiled information from various newsletters, magazines,
newspapers, advertisements, lectures, brochures etc.
The glossary is also supplemented with words and definitions from
Merriam Webster's Dictionary (Tenth Collegiate Edition) and Webster's
New World Dictionary.In
addition, we have also created words & definitions entirely
from our own imagination (we tried to make them as accurate as possible).
In some cases, we have created single definitions by combining information
from various locations. This has been done to create a broader &
more detailed definition. Due to the fact that this resource
is a compilation from literally hundreds of resources, we can not
guarantee the accuracy, spelling , definitions etc., of any of the
items listed on these pages. Please utilize this resource
at your own risk. Do not rely on our definitions for
