Gojjam Azene fabric is mostly striped or checkered fabric used as a warp around cloak. Compared to other traditional fabrics, Gojjam-azene traditional fabric yet not introduced as a fashionable fabric. It is currently available with specific of color combination and pattern. Weavers make the arrangement of the elements and principles of designs by trial and error .No logical arrangement. Since their target customers are villagers and farmers, they are using dull colors: because villagers will be exposed to their enemies in the evening with light colors and they can’t get water easily to wash regularly so they need dull colors to hide rubbish. The villagers don’t have a trend to spend much for clothing and can’t afford, the local weavers used the most cheep 100% Acrylic yarn. Even though it is a symbol of local community it needs improvement, value addition and modern interpretation to be popularized and competent with other local and international known traditional hand woven fabrics. With this research work the researcher will attempt to develop a new version of Gojjam-azene which is called Gojjam Abebe. In order to ease the modification work for Gojjam-azene fabric physical property performances were tested and analyzed in the lab. The applications of elements of designs were analyzed logically through color scheme. Inspirations from trend steers especially trend council SS 2019 reports were taken and full fashion design process were conducted .Gojjam Abebe fabric has more color varieties and fabric design feature for designing and developing to fashionable clothes. Gojjam Abebe is the name given to the new four version designs of Gojjam-azene fabric .The sad is changed in to flourish with light pastel ,monochromatic trendy color :from dull color ,a most comfortable 65% Cotton 35% polyester blended fabric from the irritating 100% acrylic fabric ,from only clocked around the body to world class fashionable contemporary women tailor coat ,because of all this it is called Gojjam is flourished –Gojjam Abebe .

In Ethiopia most retailers use similar store and display setup strategy in their clothing fashion retail shop and that organization of elements used in the displays and store are just used without consideration to approach customer’s sight. So this research primarily focuses on developing visual setup to improve the existing manner of store setup and display presentation methods those being implemented in Ethiopian fashion stores with the aim of producing simplified and explanatory store design using three elements of visual merchandizing, light, racks and layout. The research study includes existed selling strategy of fashion retailers in Bahrdar, product category, and customer information in Joni fashion. Explorative research was deemed to be the most appropriate for this study and qualitative data was collected. The research concludes of each elements used to set up the store as a whole co-relate to each other so as so draw or to put off attention.

Although Ethiopia has different clothing culture, a problem was examined and affirmed on men’s outfit issue regarding fitness color and insufficient design variation. So to overcome this problem an objective is established to design and develop men’s collection outfit using Awramba cultural fabric in addition of denim fabric in a contemporary way. So to come up with such Outcome it was necessary to design a scientific method. Starting from field study to the small Ethiopian village of Awramba; in order to collect sample fabric and first-hand source of information. At that juncture the collected fabric has been compared to other Ethiopian traditional fabrics like Shewa oromo, Wolayeta and even with both denim elastic and canvas; by subjecting the fabrics to important physical, mechanical and chemical tests. Then after consideration of the laboratory result, the fabric has been chosen and the design process follows. The mind mapping and the whole Design processes starting from inspirational board to the final look is evidently indicated in the methodology section. The fabric material used (Awra amba, denim, and others for contrasting) analyzed in terms of their physical and chemical property test, which is clearly stated and discussed on the result and discussion chapter. This section also includes analysis of data for research purpose about cultural cloth making enterprises, and finally the design specification sheet, operational breakdown and cost sheet for all designed outfits as a technical package. In the last chapter, for a better result, a possible recommendation was given after all the result points were tied with a conclusion.
