Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThese body measurement tables were developed from evaluation of data currently used in theapparel industry. These table
3、s were developed from data published by the U.S. Department ofCommerce,2Caesar Study3, Size USA Study,4Current USA industry and studies, and scans anddocumentation from Alvanon Inc.5This standard takes into consideration Misses figure at a standardheight of 5 ft 5 in. ( 65 % of average USA populatio
4、n) taking into account the decrease and increasein body weight that shift a person from one size to another, while this person does not gain in height.Also included is a definition of body type, Curvy or Straight as applied to waist, high hip, hip seat,thigh and mid-thigh girths that result in a dif
5、ferent body shape (silhouette). Major review andevaluation was done. The incremental growth at different key body points has been addressed anddefined, which resulted in identifying increases and decreases at different rates in specific areas; bust,waist, high hip and hip/seat. Additionally, to bett
6、er serve the industry, incremental movement betweensizes was reviewed ensuring smooth transition between sizes. To verify the proposed bodymeasurements, a three-dimensional Avatar was created in the Misses size range 00 through 20 (Curvyand Straight) by Alvanon Inc. for a visual reference and is als
7、o attached in the documentation.1. Scope1.1 These tables list body measurements of adult femalemisses figure Type sizes 00 through 20. Although these arebody measurements, they can be used as a baseline in design-ing apparel for Missy in this size range when considering suchfactors as fabric type, e
8、ase for body movement, styling, and fit.1.2 These tables list body measurements for the completerange of Missy sizing.1.3 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsy
9、stem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.2.

Significance and Use4
15、.1 The use of the body measurement information in Table1 and Table 2 will assist manufacturers in developing patternsand garments that are consistent with the current anthropomet-ric characteristics of the population of interest. This practiceshould in turn reduce or minimize consumer confusion andd
16、issatisfaction related to apparel sizing. (Also refer to ISO3635.)4.2 Three-dimensional avatars depicting each of the missysizes and sub category curvy and straight on certain measures,were created by Alvanon, Inc. and included in this standard toassist manufacturers in visualizing the posture, shap
