Natural dyes are gotten from plants, spineless creatures, or minerals. The greater sources of natural dyes are vegetable colors from plant sources-roots, berries, bark, leaves, and wood—and other natural sources, for example, parasites and lichens. Natural Dyess are mostly used to color regular textures like cotton, silk, wool, jute and so on. In any case, next to no data is accessible on coloring of synthetic textures like polyester, acrylic, nylon and so forth. This paper is on utilization of natural dyes on natural fabrics as well as synthetic fabrics. The coloring of synthetic fabrics with natural dyes requires pre-treatments to produce hydrophilic groups. This paper highlights about the mordanting forms used to do coloring with natural dyes on natural fabrics and synthetic fabrics.
