The human body proportions in relation to the fashion tendency of designing children clothes

Abstract

There must exist a balance between the shape of the clothes and the proportions of the human body (calculated as ratios between different body dimensions) for a good correspondence from a dimensional and aesthetical point of view. Clothes for children have special aesthetical, comfort and hygienic characteristics, according to their age, needs, fashion tendencies and trend lines. This paper presents a comparative analysis between the scheme of designing children clothes, elaborated by the Russian designers, and another solution proposed by the authors of the paper, by taking account the compositional, stylistic and chromatic characteristics.
