  The light and color performances of deep-black-coloring of fabrics made of Non-Circular Cross-Section (NCCS) Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) fibers were investigated by means of GP, SEM and polarization imaging. The GP surface reflectance curves showed that the performance of single NCCS fibers were profoundly affected by the forces loaded under horizontal and vertical directions compared to its yarns. The unique surface characteristics of the NCCS PET fabrics indicated by its constituent fibers’ cross-sections and fabrics’ SEM images gave unpredictable effects on the light and color perceived on the deep-coloring effect of the fabrics. Polarization imaging results of black-dyed woven fabrics indicated that higher specular and chroma values affected the deep-coloring effect, and that the overlapping chroma curves means that there were insignificant differences among those..
