허리가 굵은 여성의 하반신 체형 분석 -하드롭 지수를 중심으로-

Abstract

This study aimed to classify lower body types of women with thicker waists, using the 8th human body 3D measurement data from measurement data of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, South Korea. Lower body types of women with thicker waists are known to deviate from the standard body type. This study will derive insights necessary for the development of pants. Lower body horizontal factor, lower body vertical factor, ankle horizontal factor, and hip and back crotch length factors were found to be lower body shape composition factors of women with thick waists. Lower body shapes of women with thick waists were classified into the following types: small and thin lower body with big hips type, large and thick lower body with normal hips type, and long and thin lower body with small hips type. Data suggested that the amount of space needed should be differentiated when designing pants patterns based on the physical characteristics of the lower body of women with thick waists and that pants patterns should be designed according to age group. Future studies should focus on the front and side shapes through detailed measurements, including angles.
