Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a measurement sample used for custom making clothes and a custom-making method, in order to provide custom-making clothes which properly fits a wearer's body, particularly clothes having bottoms such as short girdles, long girdles, short bodysuits, long bodysuits, three-in-ones, waist nippers, and swimsuits.
  • a girdle includes a front body, a back body, a crotch part, and leg circumferential parts connected to crotch hems as required, and important factors for an optimum fit to a wearer are a hip size which is a circumferential length of a top of a hip part, a hip cup size which is a degree of protrusion of the hip part, and a waist size which is a circumferential length of the most constricted part of a waist.
  • the wearer wears any girdle which does not fit the body properly, it cannot achieve intentions such as the body-shape correction function nor provide the wearer with a proper fit but with discomfort.
  • the girdle is too tight, a pressure exerted on the body may cause pain with an impaired bloodstream, thereby adversely affecting the body.
  • girdles of several standard sizes are prepared to modify one to be of size which fits a customer (hereinafter referred to as custom size).
  • custom size a girdle which approximates awearer' s body shape is selected from a plurality of girdles of standard sizes for the wearer to try on. If the girdle is large and does not fit the body in part, the part is pinched to measure a length of the pinched part, and the girdle is modified to be smaller by the length.
  • the invention provides a bottom measurement sample used for custom making clothes (herein after referred to as a bottom measurement sample) including waist measurement means capable of adjusting a waist size in a waist part of a body.
  • a bottom measurement sample including waist measurement means capable of adjusting a waist size in a waist part of a body.
  • a customer tries on a bottommeasurement sample with the size unadjusted, and a waist size is adjusted to a customer's waist by the waist measurement means, thus a bottom measurement sample having the waist size of custom size is completed to allow the customer to experience a wearing feel of the bottom measurement sample of custom size (corresponding to the customer's size).
  • the adjusted waist size can be measured, thus manufacturing clothes according to the adjusted waist size can provide clothes with a waist size of custom size.
  • the waist part is an area corresponding to a constricted part of a torso.
  • the waist measurement means has a function of adjusting the waist size, and a function of measuring the amount of adjustment.
  • the function of adjusting the waist size may be realized by an aspect in which the waist part of a body member is substantially vertically cut from an upper end thereof and divided, and one divided piece and the other divided piece are detachably fastened via a coupling member.
  • a desirable aspect for one divided piece and the other divided piece to be detachably fastened via the coupling member is that one piece is circumferentially extended to be overlaid on the other piece to fasten both pieces by the coupling member.
  • coupling members may be provided on an outer surface of one divided piece and an inner surface of the other piece, the coupling member of one piece may be extended from a divided end toward the other piece, and one piece and the other piece may be coupled with a space therebetween by the extended portion.

  • the waist measurement means may offer the function of adjusting the waist size by an aspect in which a part of the waist part of the body is pinched in a cone shape and circumferentially folded to form a folded portion, and the folded portion can be fastened to or detached from the waist part on a side on which the folded portion is overlaid. Changing the width of the fold allows adjustment of the waist size.
  • the function of measuring the amount of adjustment of the waist size may be realized by an aspect in which, for example, graduations are circumferentially marked on the waist part on the side on which the folded portion is overlaid, and measurement is made at a coupling position (an overlaid position) of the folded portion.
  • the cut (or the fold) may be formed in either the front body or the back body, but the front body is preferable for easy adjustment of the size. If the cut (or the fold) is formed in a belly part on the front body or a hip part on the back body connecting to the waist part in addition to the waist part, the amount of adjustment can be increased.
  • an appropriate coupling member can be selected from a hook-and-loop fastener, a slide fastener, a hook and eye, a snap, a button, or the like, but the hook-and-loop fastener is preferable for easy attachment/detachment and easy size adjustment.

Changing the width of the fold allows adjustment of the hip cup size.
  • the function of measuring the amount of adjustment of the hip cup size may be realized by a configuration similar to that of the waist measurement means.
  • An inner end position of the cut (or the fold) is preferably lower than a hip top height. If the position is higher than the hip top height, adjustment of the hip cup size also changes the hip size.
  • the cut (or the fold) is preferably formed toward a substantial center of the hip cup part because the cup shape of the hip cup is not likely to be broken when the hip cup is adjusted.
  • the hip measurement means can be applied to the bottom measurement sample alone or in combination with the waist measurement means.
  • a cut (or a fold) can be formed from a leg hem at a lower end of the leg circumferential part to the hip cup part.
  • thigh measurement means capable of adjusting a thigh size can be provided in the leg circumferential part.

Therefore, the number of clothes measurement samples can be reduced.
  • the top includes a plurality of cup support parts of varying verge's sizes in combination with a plurality of cup parts of varying cup heights for each verge's size, and the cup parts are detachably attached to the cup support part. Since such configuration can facilitate selection of a cup support part and cup parts all of which properly fit the verge's size and cup height of a customer and allow the customer to try on a clothes measurement sample with the cup parts of custom size to check for a proper fit before placing an order, the present invention can provide clothes with a proper fit when worn by the customer.

  • the present invention also provides a custom-making method which uses the bottom measurement sample or the clothes measurement sample as described above.
  • the custom-making method which uses the bottom measurement sample is a custom-making method of clothes including the steps of: preparing a plurality of measurement samples of varying hip sizes; selecting a bottom measurement sample according to a hip size of a wearer for the wearer to try on; adjusting a size for a proper fit to the wearer and measuring the size; and manufacturing a finished product according to the measured size.
  • the plurality of bottom measurement samples of varying hip sizes are prepared to select a bottom measurement sample having a hip size of custom size of the wearer for the wearer to try on. Then, the waist measurement means, the hip cup measurement means, the thigh measurement means and/or the torso measurement means are used to adjust the sizes to those of the customer, to allow the customer to try on the bottom measurement sample of custom size. At the same time, the adjusted sizes can be measured.
  • the present invention can provide clothes which fit the wearer's body shape, and a custom-making method which allows the customer to check for a proper fit in advance before placing an order. According to this method, adjustments to material stretching factors which cannot be determined only from measurements taken with a measure or modifications intended for body shape compensation can be also accomplished based on an actual wearing feel. At the same time, the customsize can be measured, and according thereto, clothes of custom size can be manufactured and provided.
  • the plurality of samples of varying hip sizes are simply prepared to address various body shapes by adjusting the waist or the hip cup. This reduces the number of bottom measurement samples, thus requiring little storage space to facilitate carrying.
