This document discusses various types of fasteners used in clothing including buttons, snaps, hooks and eyes, and zippers. Buttons come in different shapes and can be sewn-through, shank, or have other attachment methods. Snaps are made of two interlocking discs that are easy for children to use. Hooks and eyes are used for openings with strain, and come in straight or round styles. Zippers are known as slide fasteners and can be conventional, separating, or invisible to close garment openings.






















Fasteners are devices used to close garment openings and ease wearing.
An overview slide introducing various types of fasteners used in garments.
Buttons serve as fasteners and decorative elements with various shapes and colors.
Buttons can be categorized into Sew, Through, and Shank types.
Sew-through buttons have two or four holes for attachment.
Shank buttons feature a solid tip and are designed for thicker fabrics.
Methods include square, parallel, cross, arrowhead, and common ways for two-eyed buttons.
Snaps are interlocking discs used in clothing as an alternative to buttons.
Snap fasteners consist of a socket and a ball, and have limited holding power.
Snaps are child-friendly and can be attached using hammers, pliers or sewing.
Hook and eye fasteners are used for openings under considerable strain.
Two types of eyes: straight and round for different fabric applications.
Straight eyes are for overlapping edges, while round eyes meet edges seamlessly.
Zippers, or slide fasteners, close garment openings, commonly used in skirts and pants.
Zippers can be classified as Conventional, Separating, and Invisible.
Conventional zippers open at the top and are held at the bottom.
Separating zippers open at the top and completely separate at the bottom.
Invisible zippers are not visible when stitched on garments.
