This book was released on 1979 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data from major anthropometric surveys of U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force women are analyzed with a view toward establishing sizing programs for U.S. Navy women's clothing. Summary statistics, percentile and frequency tables, and measurement descriptions are presented for 49 variables related specifically to clothing design. A high degree of comparability was found between the two measured samples in most dimensions, although the Army women, measured in 1976-77, were found to be slightly taller and heavier than the USAF subjects surveyed in 1968, and to have somewhat larger waists and smaller bust dimensions. Using the data from the two military women's surveys and key dimensions and sizing intervals specified by the Navy Clothing and Textile Research Facility, a sizing analysis was conducted. Several different approaches were tried, but the resulting sizing programs do not satisfactorily cover the measured samples and presumably would be similarly deficient for a U.S. Navy population. The authors recommend the selection of different key dimensions arid sizing intervals suggested by the actual distribution of body size variability in the military women's samples. A limited-objective survey of U.S. Navy women is also recommended for purposes of resolving various noted discrepancies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the greatest challenges for the apparel industry is to produce garments that fit customers properly. Anthropometry, Apparel Sizing and Design addresses the need for improved characterization of our populations in order to tailor garments according to size, weight, and shape of consumers. This book reviews techniques in anthropometry, sizing system developments, and their applications to clothing design. Part one considers a range of anthropometric methods. The text discusses the range of sizing systems, including data mining techniques, useful for bridging the gap between ergonomists and designers. Chapters examine three-dimensional anthropometric methods and multivariate and bivariate analysis for identifying key body dimensions. Part two then explains how to analyze anthropometric data to develop appropriate sizing systems. Here, the book discusses classification and clustering of human body shapes, the importance of national surveys, and using the data obtained to ensure inclusive design strategies. The book covers sizing systems developed for particular groups, apparel size designation, and the potential for international standardization. It considers the advantages of 3D body scanning and computer-aided design, and the use of body motion analysis to address ease allowance requirements of apparel. With its distinguished editors and international contributors, this work is an essential reference, particularly due to the specific combination of aspects of anthropometry and the sizing of clothing, for researchers, garment designers, students, and manufacturers in the clothing and fashion industry. - Reviews techniques in anthropometry, sizing system developments, and their applications to clothing design - Examines 3D anthropometric methods and multivariate and bivariate analysis for identifying key body dimensions - Covers sizing systems developed for particular groups, apparel size designation, and the potential for international standardization

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assessment of the physical dimensions of the human body and application of this knowledge to the design of tools, equip ment, and work are certainly among the oldest arts and sciences. It would be an easy task if all anthropometric dimensions, of all people, would follow a general rule. Thus, philosophers and artists embedded their ideas about the most aesthetic proportions into ideal schemes of perfect proportions. "Golden sections" were developed in ancient India, China, Egypt, and Greece, and more recently by Leonardo DaVinci, or Albrecht Durer. However, such canons are fictive since actual human dimensions and proportions vary greatly among individuals. The different physical appearances often have been associated with mental, physiological and behavioral characteristics of the individuals. Hypocrates (about 460-377 BC) taught that there are four temperaments (actually, body fluids) represented by four body types. The psychiatrist Ernst Kretchmer (1888-1964) proposed that three typical somatotypes (pyknic, athletic, aesthenic) could reflect human character traits. Since the 1940's, W. H. Sheldon and his coworkers devised a system of three body physiques (endo-, meso-, ectomorphic). The classification was originally qualitative, and only recently has been developed to include actual measurements.

Book excerpt: Fashion and beauty have helped shape history and today more than ever, we find ourselves under increasing pressure to think about what we wear, what we look good in and how best to enhance our body shape and size. Behind this seemingly superficial industry, however, lies a technical thinking firmly grounded in science and technology. In one fully comprehensive book, Clothing appearance and fit: Science and technology provides a critical appreciation of the technological developments and scientific understanding of the appearance and fit of clothing. The authors bridge the science of beauty and fashion design with garment evaluation technology, garment drape and human anthropometrics and sizing.The ten chapters of the book provide a detailed coverage of clothing appearance and fit. Chapter 1 considers body attractiveness and how it relates to clothing material and design parameters and discusses classical and contemporary theories of beauty. Chapters 2 and 3 present the industry's techniques, methods and standards for assessing clothing appearance and fit and Chapters 4 and 5 review the research and development of objective measurement technologies for evaluating clothing appearance and fit. Fabric objective measurement, fabric properties and garment drape are covered in Chapters 6 and 7 and the R & D of body measurement, anthropometrics and sizing systems are detailed in Chapters 8 and 9. The final chapter reviews published work on garment design and pattern alteration for achieving good clothing appearance and fit.This book is an essential reference for researchers, academics, professionals and students in clothing and textile academia and industry. It includes many industrial standards, techniques and practices. - Offers a critical appreciation of technological developments - Incorporates user-friendly illustrations and photographs - Valuable reference for students, researchers and professionals in the clothing and textile industries

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Body dimensions relevant to the size and fit of Navy women's uniform clothing were measured on a representative sample of 906 Naval officers and enlisted women. six commonly-worn items of uniform clothing were tried on each subject to find the size of best fit. Subsequent statistical analysis was undertaken to determine which body dimensions and which values of these dimensions beat predicted the size of best fit. The resulting information was used to develop sizing charts for use in catalogues from which Navy women order clothing. The reliability of the charts was tested on an additional sample of 170 women. Success in predicting correct sizes from the charts varied from 87% to 49% depending on the garment. Use of the charts resulted in 90% to 100% correct predictions within one size of best fit for all garments. A number Of sizing and design problems in the garments were revealed during the course of this study. These became the basis for a companion study (Robinette, et al 1990) in which new sizing programs for Navy women's clothing were developed.
