<p>The increasing need for sustainable and functional textiles has led to the exploration of herbal dyes and bio-enzymatic finishes. This research examines the application of a fungal laccase enzyme as a functional finish on cotton fabric dyed with turmeric (<em>Curcuma longa</em>) and neem (<em>Azadirachta indica</em>) extracts. These herbs possess potent antimicrobial compounds, but their durability decreases after repeated washing. Using a pad–dry–cure method, laccase-treated fabric was tested for antimicrobial activity (AATCC 100) against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, color fastness, and tensile strength. The laccase finish achieved 99% bacterial reduction initially and 96% even after 20 laundering cycles, with minimal loss in color and mechanical strength. This study confirms that laccase-mediated phenolic cross-linking provides a wash-durable, eco-friendly antimicrobial finish.</p>
