신체치수와 제품치수의 차이로 본 타이트 스커트의 구성 실태분석

In this study 61private brand skirts and 67 brand name skirts were compared to see if the skirts from the different markets were suitable for both comfort and movement. The researcher chose size 66 skirts with a waist circumference of 68~70cm and hip circumference of 92cm. The resets are as follows. (1) In the waist measurement, the minor brand skirts were made at the maximum measurement (70cm) and the department store brand skirts were at the minimum (68cm). (2) Compared with the standard back split length of 9cm for a 48cm-long skirt, the minor brand skirts had a split of only 4.5cm, while the department store brand skirts were 3cm less (split length-6cm). From this result, we see that both of them are less practical than they are supposed to be (3) For the department store skirts, the hip circumference and waist circumference show a significant correlation to skirt length (p<0.05) and back split length (p<0.001). Larger waist & hip measurements equal longer split length. For the minor brand skirts, the length of the split shows a significant correlation to the depth of the hem-line Shorter split equals smaller hem depth. From these results, it can be concluded that the two groups of skirts do not differ except for back split length and waist circumference, but regarding the split length, both of them should be modified for else of movement and comfort.
