Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating custom garment patterns for producing clothing sized to fit any newly input human body representation. A set of reference sample bodies may be selected for which custom designed garment patterns are then obtained. Once reference patterns are obtained, a custom garment pattern for a particular new body may be automatically created by blending two or more of the reference patterns. For example, the neighboring reference bodies to the new body may be identified within a low-dimensional embedding space, and interpolation of garment parameters for the previously designed garment patterns for these reference bodies may be performed to produce a custom garment pattern.
