... in the framework of remote clothing mass customization. Design/methodology/approach Frontal and lateral photographs were collected from 170 females prior, marked as size M. Employing a salient object detection algorithm suitable for complex backgrounds, precise segmentation of body profiles was achieved while...

...Ah Lam Lee; Hyunsook Han Purpose The main issue in the mass customization of apparel products is how to efficiently produce products of various sizes. A parametric pattern-making system is one of the notable ways to rectify this issue, but there is a lack of information on the parametric design...

...Aditi Galada; Fatma Baytar Purpose The purpose of the present study was to improve the fit of women’s bifurcated garments by developing an equation that can predict the crotch length accurately by using a few basic body measurements. This equation could provide a simple mass-customization approach...

... to participate from the clothing design stage as a mass customization prosumer by using the software. The structure of classes constituting the software developed in this study is as shown in Figure 1 . Figure 1 Class structure diagram The function of each class is as shown in Table 1...

... technologies proposed for mass customization. Originality/value The proposed methodology demonstrates the value of using 3D-scanning data to manufacture fitting-mannequins via mass customization. The study demonstrates the possibility and practicality of using 3D techniques to produce commercially viable...
