Abstract

Computer-aided-design (CAD) software packages have been applied to apparel product development and have their specific uses. In this study, we want to explore a more economical and efficient solution for made-to-measure (MTM) and investigate factors that affect the fit outputs of the MTM systems. Gerber AccuMark and Telestia Creator were evaluated for this purpose. Four body shapes were selected for customized garment development. A [TC]² 3 D body scanner was utilized to extract five selected models’ measurements. The results showed that Gerber AccuMark is more suitable for an industry customization process, while it requires adequate patternmaking knowledge. In contrast, Telestia Creator could fit for more style changes and less quantity of garments because the process is more focused on the customized approach. Telestia Creator could also be an affordable solution for the product development of small and medium-sized companies. Moreover, we discovered the factors that impacted the customized fit. Even though the garments were customized for the four body shapes, specific measurements – which include the back-waist length and bust length – influenced the customized fit more than the body shapes did. Other factors, such as alteration selection, measurement accuracy, and fabric, also affected the fit result.

摘要

计算机辅助设计（CAD）软件包已应用于服装产品开发并有其特定用途。在本研究中，我们希望探索更经济高效的定制 (MTM) 解决方案，并研究影响 MTM 系统拟合输出的因素。Gerber AccuMark 和 Telestia Creator 为此目的进行了评估。选择四种体型进行定制服装开发。A [TC] ²3D 人体扫描仪用于提取五个选定模型的测量值。结果表明，Gerber AccuMark 更适合行业定制流程，同时需要足够的打版知识。相比之下，Telestia Creator 可以适应更多的款式变化和更少的服装数量，因为该过程更侧重于定制方法。Telestia Creator 也可以成为中小型公司产品开发的经济实惠的解决方案。此外，我们还发现了影响定制合身性的因素。尽管这些服装是针对四种体型定制的，但具体尺寸（包括后腰长度和胸围长度）对定制版型的影响大于体型。其他因素，例如变更选择、测量精度和面料，
