This second edition of Design of Clothing Manufacturing Processes comprehensively addresses the design and planning of clothing manufacturing processes, beginning with the classification of clothing and discussion of its market, clothing sizing systems, and the key issues involved in developing a fashion collection. Special emphasis is placed on production planning and control, with detailed coverage of the processes of design, pattern making and cutting, joining techniques, work analysis, clothing manufacturing planning, and the behaviour, performance, and quality of materials critical to the development, planning, and control of manufacturing processes and the sale of garments. With its descriptions of the rapid, integrated, and flexible manufacturing systems of today, driven by demand information, this book explains how new supply chain models and manufacturing processes can lead to a much quicker route from design to distribution. This new edition is updated with important new research and topics, including digital fashion incorporating scientific aspects of fabric modelling, simulation and digital fitting, and the performance of seams as an important criterion for the quality and appearance of clothing. - Considers in detail the design of clothing classification and sizing systems - Comprehensively presents the requirements of digital fashion, the terminology used for virtual garment, fabric modelling for virtual clothing simulation, and digital fitting - Covers the production planning in all aspects of clothing production from design and pattern making to manufacture - Provides a thorough review and description of quality requirements for clothing materials - Looks in detail at the performance of stitched seams, from the theoretical basis for determining seam strength and the parameters that affect seam strength, to the phenomenon of seam pucker

Dr. Sc. Jelka Ger?ak is Professor of Clothing Science and Head of Research and Innovation Centre for Design and Clothing Science at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Maribor, Slovenia. She has extensive experience in clothing science related to the design of clothing manufacturing processes, the mechanics of textile structures and their behaviour, objective evaluation of clothing appearance, physiology of clothing and wearing comfort. Her research focuses on clothing science and human thermal physiology, based on the study of complex aspects of clothing system, textile structures and their performance, comfort in the actual environment, and more recently smart clothing. She is internationally renowned for her wide-ranging research in textile materials, clothing science and comfort.
