The Problems Of Figure Classification In The Current Garment Size Standard In China

1 Lack of right shape Change tracking research

According to the China Human Body Information Database, in the past decade, Chinese men have tended to be tall and strong. In the past 10 years, the average height of adult men in East China has increased from 170.02 cm to 171.77 cm, and the average length has increased by 1.75 cm. The body shape has changed significantly. There are more and more tall and fat people clothing There are only 4 models in the size standard, which obviously does not meet the needs of the market.

2. The specification classification and body type classification are relatively rough

The applicable age of the current size standard for men's and women's clothing in China is from l3 to 60 years old, which has a large span and lacks a clear division of age groups. When formulating the standard for body type division, teenagers and adults are combined, and only four types of body types are divided. The body type division is relatively rough.

3 The research on the demand for special body shape does not go deep into the influence of congenital or various factors such as development, growth, environment and age on the human body, resulting in differences in body shape. There are convex abdomen, hunchback, flat shoulder, obesity, etc. The reason of age will also make the physique and body shape of the elderly inevitably appear hunchbacked, bent or protruding abdomen. However, the current garment size standard in China is applicable to the human body with normal body shape, excluding those with special body shape, and the coverage rate of garment size is not high.

4 pairs of sales region The pertinence of

People in different regions tend to have different body types due to geographical environment, quality of life and other factors, and there are significant differences in the mean values of height, waist circumference, chest circumference and other body types. At present, some enterprises in the market have not made in-depth analysis on the body shape of people in the target area, resulting in that people in the area can not buy suitable ready to wear clothes when selling.

5 Not classified by occupation

The growth of body shape varies with different occupations. According to the 1997 report on the physical fitness monitoring of adults in China, civil servants and managers, and employees in the business and service industries are taller and farmers are shorter compared with different occupations. Men are civil servants and managers business Workers in the service industry are heavier, fatter, and farmers are thinner; The female workers are thicker, and the farmers are longer.
