Abstract

the purpose of this study was to consider the lower bodyshape factor of girls according to their age groups. The subject were 150 Korean Elementary School Girls and 150 Korean Junior High School Girls. The subjects were directly measured anthropometrically. In first group(Elementary School Girls) the result of factor analysis indicated that 7 factors were extracted through factor analysis and those factors comprise 83.1% of total variance and in second group (Junior High School Girls) 8 factors were extracted through factor analysis and those factors comprise 79.9% of total variance. Lower bodyshape factors were different to each groups. So these systematic information on typical bodyshape were provide to reduce the burden of stocks and increase clothing fitness.
