Style Description (Part 1)


The purpose:
Identification and development of a complete description of a style.

Positioning Strategy (Part 2)


The purpose:
Foundation for garment analysis.

Style specifications are being developed:


Line adoption has taken place. Assigned a style number, the key identifier of the garment. Determine body types and size ranges for the style. To communicate identity of the style using specifications include brand, style number, merchandise group, selling period, body types and size ranges, etc. See Example 5-1 pp. 134~135

Factors:
Example: F E l Functional/ A th ti priorities ti l/ Aesthetic i iti Factors are useful in describing products purpose and styling. To position a product to make it desirable for a particular target market.

What is the primary requirement?


See each factor description p.136~138.

Sizing and Fit (Part 3)


Size is labeled in a manner that allows customers to find the right size. Sizing standards
To offer consistency in fit among styles, product lines, and seasonal offerings.

Sizing and Fit (Part 3)


Fit indicators:
Fit is how a garment conforms to or differs from the body. Garment cut. Labels identify the body type that the garment was designed to fit.
Example: Petite, Long, regular, short, etc.

Limiting fit points


Collar length, shoulder width, waist band length, or hip line.

Fullness
Controlled by darts, tucks, pleats, gathers, and seam shape. For comfort and freedom of body movement

Indicators of size:
General body size (S, M, L, XL) Numbers (Size 6, 12, 18)
Numbers do not indicate the actual garment dimensions. Misses 8, 10, 12/ Junior 7, 9, 11.

Example: The Apparel Design and Production Hand book (1998) Fashiondex. Inconsistent sizing systems (see Table 5-2, p. 144).

Findings: all the rest of materials required to complete garments
