Description

Most clothing sold in the world today is ready-to-wear, and production depends on the development and use of sizing systems. The foundation and concepts behind ready-to-wear systems were developed in the 19th century and were driven by the technological advancements of the time in sewing equipment, cutting and distribution technologies, and mass production methods. New technologies are now driving changes in production and distribution of clothing. Technological developments are also making possible the collection of significant amounts of current population data for the first time. These changes in technology will affect sizing in many ways. This is a critical time in the history of clothing technology to investigate issues related to sizing. This important book reviews the key issues in developing the best sizing systems for the twenty-first century. Key Features: provides a critical appreciation of key technological and scientific developments in sizing and their application; discusses how developments in sizing affect the mass production of ready to wear clothing; reviews methods of constructing new and adapting existing sizing systems; an essential reference for researchers, designers, students and manufacturers in the clothing and fashion industry. Contents: History of sizing systems and ready-to-wear; Creating sizing systems; Sizing standardisation; Sizing systems, fit models and target markets; Pattern grading and specifications; Function, fit and sizing; Communication of sizing and fit; Mass customisation and sizing; Materials and sizing; Sizing for the military; Sizing and clothing aesthetics; Sizing for the home sewing industry; Production systems, garment specifications and sizing.
