In this report, the author focused on cone-shaped panniers, which have a stronger effect on the silhouette of the skirt, and investigated the effectiveness of half-scale panniers for a trial model reproducing the shape of full-scale panniers. Both full-scale and half-scale panniers were produced and photographed with a digital camera. These images were superposed one on the other on a PC for comparison. Formal satin was selected for the skirt, as it is most frequently used for dresses. The matching tests began with the same materials and elements of frills forming the pannier for both full-scale and half-scale models. These led to a large difference in the skirt silhouettes - the bottom of the half -scale model flared out to a size 1.4 times greater than that of the full-scale model. The use of the same materials as the full-scale model for a half-scale model was therefore judged ineffective. Different thread sizes of tulle for frills were then attempted to find an optimum combination. As a result, the shapes of both images agreed best when using #70, the hardest tulle available on the market with a large flexural stiffness, for the full-scale model and #15, the softest with a low flexural stiffness, for the half-scale model. This combination was also proven effective for different gathering amounts and numbers of the tiers of frills, as well as for different skirt materials having different weights and properties.
