비만도에 따른 20대 여성의 몸통 체형 분석

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to classify body types according to BMI (Body Mass Index) and investigate the characteristics of each body type to obtain primary data that can reflect the characteristics of petite and plus-size women in size grades and size production of clothing patterns tailored to general standard body types. The BMI of women in their 20s was 38.61㎏/㎡ at maximum and 14.81㎏/㎡, showing a significant difference between underweight and high obesity. In addition, the dimensions of the abdomen and waist-related areas showed a significant difference between the maximum and minimum values. Eight factors were analyzed for women in their 20s, including horizontal factors, vertical factors, chest and breast thickness ratio factors, shoulder-width factors, waist thickness ratio factors, vertical hip factors, hip thickness ratio factors, and upper body length factors. The body type was classified into four types: type 1 was a ‘slender-type narrow body,’ type 2 was a ‘tube-type short body,’ type 3 was a ‘reverse triangular flat body,’ and type 4 was a ‘large cylindrical short body.’ According to BMI, in the case of the underweight group, type 2 was the most common, and type 4 was not founded. Type 4 accounted for the majority of the obese group. In the case of underweight, it is considered necessary to reduce the deviation of the rule value when grading the width part of the clothing pattern due to the narrow body width. In the case of overweight and obesity, it is thought that the deviation should be significantly reduced when grading the circumference. The length of the upper body and torso tends to be shortened even if the size increases, so it is thought that the deviation should be reduced when grading the length direction.
