Abstract: Systems or methods for anatomy warping a garment are provided. Anatomy warping is any deliberate manipulation of a garment's seams, pockets, and/or other construction lines and/or details in order to change the perceived shape of a wearer of the garment toward a desired appearance. Additionally, the garments that result from use of these systems and methods for anatomy warping are also provided.

Abstract: Systems or methods for anatomy patterning a garment are provided. Anatomy patterning is any deliberate manipulation of a garment's pattern in order to change the perceived shape of a wearer of the garment toward a desired appearance. Additionally, the garments that result from use of these systems and methods for anatomy patterning are also provided.

Abstract: Systems and methods for anatomy shading and the garments that result therefrom are provided herein. More specifically, anatomy shading is any deliberate manipulation or addition of shading (a brightness gradient) to a garment in order to change the perceived shape of a wearer of the garment toward a desired appearance.

Abstract: This invention relates to a warp knitted elastic fabric composed of alternating non-elastic courses formed from non-elastic yarns and intervening elastic courses formed primarily with elastic thread having a knitted ground construction composed of a plurality of non-elastic threads arranged in one or two systems of warp threads formed into a plurality of wales and courses of single thread stitches. The threads of said system or systems form stitches in adjacent wales in a course and in alternate courses to form the alternating non-elastic course. A plurality of elastic threads arranged in one system of warp threads form a plurality of wales and alternate elastic courses of double elastic thread stitches. Each elastic thread forming a part of two stitches in adjacent wales in a course knitting in the intervening courses when at least half of the non-elastic threads are not knitting.
