Body Shape Variation of Different Aged Women in Changjiang Delta

To improve the garment fit in the mass production indus-try context, this paper analyzes women's body shapevariation in different age groups in Changjiang Delta. Bymeans of Martin method, 62 variables of each body from800 women aged from 18 to 50 in this area are measuredand then 9 representative variables are selected for fur-ther analysis. Consequently, necessary information oneach age group is picked up, which contributes to thegarment design. Through regression analysis, linearanalysis and cluster analysis, the conclusion is reachedthat with the increase of age, the body height decreasesslightly, while girth increases drastically, so does theweight factor.

Body Shape Variation of Different Aged Women in Changjiang Delta

To improve the garment fit in the mass production industry context, this paper analyzes women' s body shape variation in different age groups in Changjiang Delta. By means of Martin method, 62 variables of each body from 800 women aged from 18 to SO in this area are measured and then 9 representative variables are selected for further analysis. Consequently, necessary information on each age group is picked up, which contributes to the garment design. Through regression analysis, linear analysis and cluster analysis, the conclusion is reached that with the increase of age, the body height decreases slightly, while girth increases drastically, so does the weight factor.
