Abstract: A basic formula of active layout drawing in pants tailoring to make use of all the data obtained from measure around the waistline, measure around the hip between waistline and hip, measure around the hip, front measure from waistline to gore bottom, back measure from waistline to gore bottom, measure of full gore line, measure around the upper thigh, measure around the middle thigh, measure around the knee, measure around the calf, and the determination of the position of the middle thigh for making an active layout drawing to fit all kinds of figures of the body.

Abstract: A bustdart-free tailoring process for a fitted-waist dress having armpits, made of a woven cloth having warp and weft yarns, and designed so as to eliminate cutting of the back piece, is performed by steam-warming and wet-treating a predetermined area of the woven cloth to make the warp and waft yarns more flexible for subsequent realignment thereof, setting a pre-arranged point within the predetermined area to serve as curvature centroid, stretch-ironing bilaterally and outwardly from a line connecting a preselected point with a preselected armpit point along curvature paths conforming with said curvature centroid, thereafter heat-treating the warp and weft yarns within the predetermined area so as to re-align the yarns toward the prearranged point, and one-way permanent-pressing at least a pre-arranged area of the cloth towards the preselected point so as to let at least a preselected portion of the cloth form a preselected curvature.

Abstract: A method of drawing a pattern for custom-tailored skirts in terms of taking into account a person's bodily dimensions, including measures around the waistline, around the largest part of the abdomen, another part of the abdomen thereabove, around the lower and lowermost hip, around the upper hip, various lateral distances between selected of the foregoing measures, the selected length of the skirt, and deviations from a standard body figure in terms of lateral deviations of portions of the wearer's body from a straight vertical line making contact with a laterally most protruding part of the wearer's body.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of preparing a pattern drawing in upper body tailoring by making use of the data obtained from the measure of shoulder depth, arm girth at armpit, shoulder width, back width, neck base girth, back waist length, front waist length, bust point length, chest girth, breast depth, bust breadth, and abdomen depth. The pattern drawing fits all kinds of body figures.

Abstract: In a process of preparing a sketch to be used as a pattern for custom-tailoring at least a portion of a garment from selected material to fit a human figure of predetermined dimensions, the sketch is derived from a basic configuration for the desired portion of the garment, but in which selected dimensions are chosen in accordance with a set of predetermined measurements of the torso of the wearer.
