| Research Abstract |
This project was performed in order to develops a computer program which assists students in understanding the relation between mechanical properties of a fabric and a silhouette of a garment made from the fabric. 20 gather-skirts were made from cotton fabrics and 22 flare-skirts from cotton, wool and polyester fabrics. 5 measures which characterize a silhouette of skirt were taken from a photograph of each skirt. Correlation coefficients between each of these 5 measures and stiffness, thickness and weight of the fabrics were calculated. The correlations for the flare-skirts were larger than those for the gather-skirts. This showed that a wider variety of the fabrics could provide a wider distribution of properties then would make a better correlation between the properties and the silhouette of skirts. The 5 measures were described with stiffness, thickness and weight of the fabrics as results of multiple regression analysis. Then Computer Program which draws a silhouette of skirt by input of data on a fabric was designed for gather- or flare-skirt. The program was constructed with the results of multiple regression analysis and the consideration of a circular arc as the curve from waist to hip. It was expected that addition of images of drapes and shadow to the silhouette could make it realistic.
