Research Women's Skirt and Slacks Production

Abstract

The objective of this project was to modify the current U.S. Army women's skirt and slacks to better meet the needs and anthropometric measurements of today's soldiers and improve the ease of alterations. The project was undertaken in three phases: (1) Manufacture and approval of prototypes based on specifications, drawings and samples furnished by the U.S. Army Natick Research, Development and Engineering Center, Natick, MA, and changes to them recommended by the Fashion Institute of Technology/Advanced Apparel Manufacturing Technology Demonstration Center (F.I.T./AAMTD), (2) Manufacture of the first lot of garments for small scale fit testing and approval; and (3) Manufacture of the second lot of garments for scaled up fit and wear testing. The F.I.T./AAMTD portion of the project has been completed. The results of the wear tests have not been determined as of the date of preparation of this report.
