Abstract
An image forming method includes: applying an ink containing a pigment and resin particles onto a fabric by an inkjet method; and applying a post-treatment liquid containing a lubricant onto the ink applied to the fabric in a wet-on-wet manner, wherein when a solubility parameter of a resin constituting the resin particles is represented by SP1 (cal/cm3)1/2 and a solubility parameter of the lubricant is represented by SP2 (cal/cm3)1/2, 0.3≤SP1−SP2≤0.8 is satisfied.
