The aim of this master’s thesis was to explore a modern approach in fashion design, using 3D technology and the concept of "one size fits all," and to create garments that adapt to different body types. The focus was on improving the inclusion of various size ranges. The research included a theoretical part, where different types of female body shapes throughout history were analyzed, along with their influence on contemporary size standards. It also involved an analysis of plus-size models, comparison of body types, and the role of media and influencers in changing beauty ideals.
The experimental part of the thesis focused on designing a collection of garments suitable for a broader range of body types, using modern approaches and 3D technology. The inspiration for the collection came from 1930s fashion, with Marlene Dietrich serving as the muse. Dietrich revolutionized women's fashion in the 20th century by incorporating menswear elements, such as tuxedos, jackets, and wide trousers, which laid new fashion trends and had a significant impact on the design of modern collections.
The results of the research showed that the use of 3D programs allows for greater accuracy and adaptability in garment creation, contributing to better visual representation of clothing designs. The collection demonstrated that garments can be aesthetic, comfortable, and functional, regardless of size. The inclusion of different body types in fashion represents an important step for the fashion industry, allowing greater self-expression for women while also reducing the environmental impact associated with mass production and the constant replacement of clothing due to weight fluctuations.
