Description
This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to analyse and select the fit model used to present sample garments and derive garment fit and size standard.The unit of competency applies to representations that are required in the design, manufacture and retail of fashion garments to ensure that the targeted customer population is addressed in size range and appropriate data is obtained from research. This data also provides a solid basis for design, pattern derivation and garment construction for a sizing system.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
