Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the generation of basic garment pattern using three‐dimensional body measurement data.
Design/methodology/approach
A pre‐defined garment model is deformed using free‐form deformation method and the model is flattened to generate flat patterns.
Findings
The paper finds that individual basic garment patterns are automatically generated and verified to be well fit on human subjects.
Research limitations/implications
The current approach is to focus on the generation of basic bodice patterns; however, other patterns can also be generated by this method by preparing more garment models.
Practical implications
This method can reduce the time required to design basic patterns as well as enhance their fitness.
Originality/value
The automatic generation of individually fitted garment pattern is one of the most important steps in future garment production process.
