Human Proportions And Clothing Design Of Different Races

Clothing

Large scale production requires a standard and universal body ratio to facilitate the design and production of garments.

However, the research on the proportion of human body in clothing structure must not adopt the purely anthropometric method applied to science, otherwise it will go to the extreme of accuracy and is not conducive to the development of the garment industry.

Therefore, the standard body ratio of clothing structure is not equivalent to the specific proportion of a person, but also applies to each specific person.

As early as in ancient Egypt, people used the hand (third fingers long) as the unit of measurement of the human body.

In ancient Greece and ancient Rome, the head was used as a unit of measurement.

Until now, head and hands are still used as measuring units of human body proportions.

Because head and hands are usually not exposed to clothing and exposed, so the head and hands can be used as the most suitable unit of measurement for clothing design.

Due to differences in race, sex, age, geography, climate and environment, human proportions are usually divided into two proportions.

That is Asia's seven highest percentage of adult human body and the European standard of eight to the highest proportion of adults. This is the two most widely used proportion of adult human body.

Seven the ratio of head height to human body is 3:4 on the upper body than in the lower body. The ratio of eight head height to human body is 3:5 ratio of the upper body to the lower body is about 1:1.618.

The two arms of the human body straighten up approximately equal to the height, thus forming a square. If the square is split by 3:5, it will produce.

Infinite division.

Therefore, the ratio of the eight heads to the human body has obvious aesthetic significance.

Seven the ratio of head height to human body is the proportion of yellow race, and the ratio of eight head to high body is white.

But they are divided into upper body and lower body by the waist line, and the length of the upper body is three heads. The proportion of the upper body is lower than the body. The yellow people are four heads, and the white ones are five heads.

Therefore, the ratio of eight heads to human body is of practical value both in aesthetics and in experimental psychology.

As the seven highest proportion of the yellow body type,

In order to improve the proportion relationship, it is very effective to increase the waist line.
