How did the Aztec dress?
The Aztecs didn't really "dress" much. They were pretty much half naked, while the children and babies were- well, naked. I know the women wove cloth, and the soldiers wore armor made from heavy quilted cotton. Only the "noble" and "rich" Aztecs wore cloth. Some even wore head-dresses.
Why was the loom invented?
The loom was invented as a result of the desire of people to find a machine to weave threads into cloth. The "crosshatch" that is woven cloth is much more quickly "assembled" (woven) by using a machine to do the work. Woven cloth has been around for thousands of years, and man wove grass and such before weaving cloth. It only makes sense that once the idea of weaving strands of material (reeds, grass or anything else) together to make useful items arose, people actively searched for a way to construct a device of some kind to weave fine material (like thread) into cloth.

When did the Chinese begin making silk?
Silk cloth was first made in China about 5000 years ago. However, silk thread existed in China long before someone decided to make cloth from it. The silk used for weaving cloth comes from the cocoons of the bombycidae type of moth. The moth lays eggs which hatch into larvae (caterpillars) which become pupae. The pupa wraps itself in a cocoon that it makes from the silk thread it extrudes from glands in its mouth. Pupae had been making silk thread long before humans discovered what their cocoons were made of. So it is quite possible it was hundreds of millions of years ago that the very first insects invented silk in China.
