Size-specific Analysis of Body Scan Data to Improve Apparel Fit

Abstract

This paper describes how size-specific analyses of body scan data of an apparel company's target market can provide information that can be used to adjust ready-to-wear sizing to improve apparel fit. We describe a variety of size-based statistical and visual analysis methods that can be applied to target market body scan data. These analyses begin to describe and address the variety of body shapes and measurements that exist within a sizing system and identify potential design adjustments that could be made in order to increase the percent of acceptable fit within each size category for a target market.
