The most secure protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure is offered by textiles, such as different kinds of apparel, caps, and umbrellas. Clothing is the most effective way to protect against UV radiation (UVR) exposure. Different fabrics have different levels of dyeing with natural, synthetic or artificial fibres depending on their properties. While reviewing, the researcher found that some natural dyes are in appealing colours which have UV-protective properties and obtained excellent results. The creation of these natural colours was done by utilizing fruit peel, plant-based dyes, vegetable dyes, dry fruits, and pulses. Other researchers investigated these natural hues. Researcher is utilizing these findings to create UV-protective clothing by using a wide range of natural colours. There are several companies in the market which provide UV protective clothing using artificial colours but they don’t use any designing element for kids wear. Skin of kids is more delicate; therefore, they require special attention and protection from the sun. The objective of this study is to produce designer and protective clothing with natural dye that have the necessary UV protection. Five different tie-dye techniques were used in this study to develop clothing that protects young girls from UV rays. By examining their structural, aesthetic, and functional aspects, it was determined that protective clothing designs were accepted by the mothers and their caretakers.
