Thanks for your reply.
I have found some interesting articles about Measured BRDF and now
i'll try to use these equations in shaders.
But it will be very cool if someone tell me some basic properties of
cloth materials, for example silk has a lot of anisotropic specular,
cotton is simple diffuse with low level of specular component, etc.
