Prediction equations of appearance of flared skirts are derived by the multiple regression of various drape coefficients with subjectively evaluated data which was obtained from observation of a walking model wearing each skirt. The subjective data was obtained for 9 evaluation terms of moving flared skirt by SD method evaluated by 23 university students aged from 19 to 22. It was found that “flowing”, “rhythmical”, “blowy”, “airy”, “flexible”, “graceful”, “lively”, “dynamic” and “beautiful” movement of flared skirts are evaluated objectively from a combination of various drape coefficients. These equations were inspected by the other 9 flared skirts and were proved to be reliable. Only 4 terms such as “rhythmical”, “airy”, “graceful” and “beautiful” are enough to evaluate the appearance. Almost all the evaluation terms were primarily dominated by conventional static drape coefficient (Ds) of fabrics.
