Abstract
We made four basic skirt patterns and discussed their relationship between physical-type characteristics of the lower half of the body of young adult women and patterns and measurement items. The subjects consisted of 346 young adult women ranging in age from 20 to 21. The four basic skirts were found to be well-fitting for 307 of the young women. To improve fitting for basic skirts, it was necessary to measure the waist and hip girth, front and back, side length waist to hips, remainder of front and back waist height items, front waist girth items. Based on body size and figure, clothing that is not only comfortable but well-fitting could be made.
