Since fashion information is exchanged all over the world in the present time, the importance of the study on an international body type is increased. In this study, a comparison of the body types between Korean and Japanese young adult women was studied by silhouette photographs.
From the result of significant test between the measured body items, the young Korean adult women were tall in height but short in legs. A waist line was not notably narrow from the front view, and the back depth was thick on vertical line from tragion.
In the result of the principal component analysis which bundled up both countries, four primary factors were found: 1) fatness, 2) posture, 3) shape of buttocks, and 4) stature and the length of legs.
In the result of a significant test during the principal component scores of the both countries, the 1st, 2nd, 3rd factors among four primary factors had some significant difference.
From the above results, it became clear that a difference exists between the body types of young Korean adult women and those of young Japanese adult women.

The authors have studied the influence of stripe width, stripe intervals and stripe color combinations on the appearance of curtain configuration for striped patterns. The results are summarized as follows:
1) Among our experimental conditions, it was Sample A (see Fig. 1) that showed the most irregularity in the appearance of the pleat pattern. But the irregularity recognized in Sample B was almost identical to that of Sample C, both showed less irregularity than that of Sample A.
2) The curtains using severely contrasting color combination in the stripes look so much more irregular than those of color combinations of less contrasting colors.
3) The image of a curtain is produced by three factors: “form” such as plain or delicate, “texture” such as heavy or hard, and “general atmosphere” such as warm or dynamic.
4) Stripe designs in curtains create, in general, an appearance of irregularity in the pleat. The stripe design also tends to create a “thick” or “hard” image.
