Lingopro Mar 9, 2010:
Then my agreement with boostrer withstands since you wrote it's mentioned on a clothing label, the word פרט probably refers to a polyurethane accessory which is an attached to the clothing. do you know what type of clothing it is?
Jonathan Dictrow (asker) Mar 9, 2010:
Hey Lingopro, there is no more context, it's a "one-liner"
Lingopro Mar 9, 2010:
Jonathan, No more context?
Are the polyurethane accessories actually attached to the garment?

trimming

That's how I'd translate it in this context. Decorations sounds more suitable for a Christmas tree than a garment.

This word is normally used when speaking about clothing / shoes.
Peer comment(s):

agree Lingopro : Accessories is indeed used in fashion contexts, and here in particualr since Jonathan stated it's a פרט i.e. an attached piece which is not part of the garment itself.

embellishment

Without further context, I'd guess that קישוטים refer not to the material the cloth is made of and not to the ornaments printed on the material, but to additional elements, such as brooches (roses, flowers) made of another fabric or other details (applications) sewed on the costume.
