Abstract
The knowledge of anthropometric dimensions is necessary for the development of garment patterns. In countries like India, where retailing is expected to see an unprecedented growth in the next few years, the success or failure of a brand depends on the fit of clothing that is offered to consumers. In this study, more than 500 college students from 18-26 years of age were measured. 29 body measurements were recorded and statistically analyzed for the development of upper- and lower-body garment patterns. The entire population was classified into 15 groups on the basis of height and weight which can serve as the basis of developing an accurate sizing system for ready-made garments.
