Housing construction companies have been providing master bedroom walk-in closet as a selling point in modest sized apartments as small as 74m$^2$. It is noticeable that master bedroom walk-in closet in apartments provided by public sectors showed much variety in its size. This study tries to set up the guide line of master bedroom walk-in closet size. It is quite reasonable to assume that the biggest space-occupiers in walk-in closet are blankets and clothing. The survey conducted in this study shows that the number of clothes people keep in their closet does not show any significant difference regardless of square footage of their apartments. 34.7% of respondent answered they keep about 50-60 clothes using coat hangers, where 20-30 of those are winter clothes. It is calculated the required optimum length of the walk-in closet is 3.8m$^2$. Considering the most popular longitudinal dimension of master bedroom, 3.9m, and the space needed to accommodate blankets, it can be concluded that the required length of storage in master bedroom walk-in closet is 2.1m. The length can be adjusted reflecting the length of the master bedroom.

Knitwear has become a part of fashion since aristocratic trend-setters of Medieval Spain and France began wearing luxurious silk stockings. However, in more recent times knitwear emerged as a fashion item in the early 20th century when jersey two-piece Channel dresses became popular amongst the French upper classes. Knitwear then evolved into genuine going out clothes through Sonia Rykiel in the 1970s. Sonia Rykiel has made a great contribution to developing knitwear, which she transformed from being used only in informal dresses or clothes for home wear, to a boarder in use in high-quality dresses such as those worn at parties. Unlike most designers who tend to make very different styles each year, she has restricted her clothes to those made with knitwear. The study examined the designs and formative characteristics of her knitwear in order to clarify why Sonia Rykiel's knitwear fashion is apparently so timeless. Results showed that her garments consistently used black oriented color combination, strife patterns, intarsia techniques and application of diversified subordinate materials and other materials that overcome earlier limitations of knitwear. In addition, her designs consistently express the typically Parisian sophisticated urban femininity through practicality, sensuality and playfulness. Overall, her fashion has shown that it exists for women in action through practical design within the scope of demode, the philosophy in her early days, and it has led her to hold great power over knitwear fashion for the past 40 years.

PCDD/F (Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans) in both of treated fabric and untreated fabric for working clothes of a municipal waste incineration were determinated. The treated fabric for working clothes was developed for less exposure of PCDD/F in municipal waste incinerations. The total concentrations of PCDD/F in some parts such as surface, middle layer, inside for treated and untreated fabric were investigated. The I-TEQ value of surface was 0.23370ng TEQ/g for treated fabric, 0.15355ng $.$ TEQ/g for non-treated fabric. On the other hand, the value of middle layer was 0.00077ng $.$ TEQ/g, 0.00177ng $.$ TEQ/g, respectively. The surface of the treated fabric containing high levels PCDD/F was caused by absorption of them. Therefore, PCDD/F of the treated fabric in middle layer was less I-TEQ value than that of the untreated fabric. The treated fabric makes effect on preventing PCDD/F from permeating into human body.
