We have developed a measuring garment for the shape of a women’s upper body for personalized garment design. A stretch sensor with a linear relationship between the elongation and capacitance was used. Twenty one measurement locations were determined based on the required measurements to make a basic pattern. Twenty one sensors were sewn on a long-sleeved T-shirt corresponding to the measurement locations. The capacitance of each sensor was measured while a subject was wearing the measuring garment. We estimated the measurements owing to short length of the sensor compared with the measurement gauge. Because there were linear relationships between the measured dimensions by the three-dimensional (3D) scanner and the capacitance values from the sensors at all of the measurement locations, we used the linear regression equations to estimate the measurements. An upper garment pattern for the subject was successfully created using the obtained measurements. To confirm the fit of the pattern, a wearing simulation was performed using a 3D apparel simulation system. It fitted well on the subject without wrinkles and redundant ease. Therefore, it is possible to measure a women’s upper body using the proposed measuring garment.
