Abstract
In the apparel field, there is the problem of creating a design with respect to an underlying standard form. Instead of applying general-purpose three-dimensional computer aided design systems to such tasks it is proposed that design can be carried more efficiently with bespoke design systems. These can be targeted to deal with the problems of accurately defining the offset surfaces which comprise the garment. Such a system is introduced and the methods of data entry are discussed. Position on the three-dimensional form is determined using a digitizer tablet and fit with respect to the form is specified by an offset dimension. It is shown that complex garment pieces with variable fit can be quickly specified within the system.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
