Abstract
We have tried to find out a simpler and easier method of drawing and correcting the shoulder slope.
We measured the height, weight, bust, width of the back shoulders, and shoulder slopes of the three hundred and seventy-six students of a women's junior college in Tokyo. Then we analyzed the statistics to get the mean value and the standard deviation of the shoulder slopes, and to find out the correlation between the shoulder slope and other items abovementioned. Also we made some experiments to see the fitness of the dress-patterns to bodies with various shoulder slopes.
From this research we have come to the conclusion that it is desirable that the angle of the shoulder slope of the dress-pattern is the same as that of the human body.
