A Study on the Women사s Bodysuit Block Construction Using Stretch Fabrics

The purposes of this study were to develop the basic block construction method for women's bodysuits using four-way stretch fabrics and to propose the fundamental particulars implemented for the block construction in the research. For these, several distinguished bodysuit pattern making methods adopted in the countries, Australia[1], France[2], UK[3]. and USA[4] and were analysed and compared to develop a more advantageous pattern making procedures for the women's bodysuits. To evaluate the developed bodysuits' functionality and comfort, the constructed samples were evaluated by the clothing pressure and fit tests. The results through the research were, in turn, interpreted into a new block construction method, which was validated as beneficial for both academic and industrial purposes with the relevant practical consultancy provided from the co-operating company[5]. The findings and suggestions throughout the research were as follows: (1) The anthropometry required for the developed bodysuit blocks in the study were: front and back bust girths, front and back waist girths, front and back hips, neck base girth, waist to waist (total crotch), nape to waist, waist to bust point, across chest and back widths individually measured; (2) Individually measured front and back bust/waist/hip girth measurements showing the differently distributed front and back proportions within the total bust/waist/hip girth measurements were respectively implemented to construct the front and back block each; (3) the length and width reduction rate: 0.9 and the front bust reduction rate: 0.85 went around the figure with the given 70％ stretch fabric to allow the appropriate minus tolerances to the women's bodysuit blocks, that were applied from the beginning of the pattern construction procedures as shown in the Australian method.
