This review presents the effect of metal nanoparticles in the process of dyeing textile fibers with traditional dyes on color change, color stability and biocidal potentials. The latest achievements in the use of metal nanoparticles as new classes of dyes and antimicrobial agents, and their influence on the calorimetric and antibacterial characteristics of various textile materials are also presented. New approaches to the functionalization of textile materials by methods of green synthesis of LF of various metals using plant extracts are proposed. The use of plant extracts for the manufacture of metal nanoparticles is simple, convenient, inexpensive, easily scalable, less energy-intensive, environmentally friendly, minimizes the use of unsafe materials and maximizes the efficiency of the process. LF-Ag processing enhances the color reproduction of materials, as well as improves resistance to light and washing, which suggests that these methods can overcome the limitations of traditional dyeing processes.
