Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to develop a fast parameterized modeling approach to generate individualized dress forms for realistic human bodies.

Design/methodology/approach

An individualized dress form is created by deriving a new set of fitting functions from a number of key existing dressing parameters and pre‐defined templates. The fitting functions only contain simple shapes of circular and/or elliptical arcs, which can be modified computationally based on a few personal dressing data.

Findings

This paper reaffirms that individual body shape can be adequately described by a number of critical cross‐section silhouettes, and a personalized dress form can be constructed based on key dressing parameters and templates.

Originality/value

The fitting functions and relevant dressing data for specific cross‐sectional silhouettes are determined, permitting a user to create personalized dress forms only by inputting a simple set of dressing parameters.
