Bust silhouette is one of several very important aesthetic points in the appeal of a women’s body, and it is also well known that an attractive silhouette is influenced by both inner and outer garments. Some odd protrusions can appear in outerwear because of the underlying brassiere, in particular, in spring-into-autumn apparel. As a result, many young Japanese women experience discomfort related to this silhouette. Thus we investigated the relationship between the brassiere and the bust silhouette in knit shirt. The experimental results are as follows: (1) unnatural protrusions result from four causes: the seam, the cup line, the trim lace, and the malformed top part of the brassiere, (2) seamless cup type brassiere makes a contribution to a beautiful bust silhouette, and (3) characteristics of the half-cup type brassiere which produces the worst bust silhouette in knit shirt are the total angle of cup top (BθU + BθL) ≤ 155°, the curved height of the under-cup line (BBL) ≤ 6 mm, and the compression recovery (RC) ≤ 50%.

This paper aims to clarify the properties of some factors relating to Shari Hand Value of woven fabrics which is one of good feelings for summer wear in Japan.The results are obtained as follows : 1) The rustring sound of high Shari Hand Value (8-10) have special frequency response, that is, the sound pressure within 1 kHz have about 70-90 dB, among from 1 kHz to about 6 kHz do below about 50 dB and among from about 6 kHz to 10 kHz do 50-60 dB, and it is experimentally clarified that the high sound pressure within 1 kHz results chiefly from the yarn (high twisted one) and the one over 1 kHz results from the fabric's construction.2) In this experiments of the frictional property of fabric-to-fabric, the mean frictional coefficient μ and the variation of frictional coefficient μcv, could not be recognized to be closely correlated to Shari Hand Value.3) Fabrics of high Shari Hand Value (6-10) have special constructions, that is, high twisted yarn such as 13-35 turn/cm in warp and 13-27 turn/cm in weft, yarn density such as 35-60 picks/cm and 35-50 ends/cm, and the crimp ratio such as 8-16% in warp and 6-18% in weft are used.

To examine the aesthetic properties of pantyhose, an image analysis and wear experiment were carried out. We analyzed both the area ratio of light, medium, and dark lightness areas and the position of three areas in the distribution of lightness difference between legs with and without pantyhose fabric. The data was used to determine what effect these two variables have on the visual appeal of legs in pantyhose. Moreover, we examined the relationship between pantyhose size and women’s leg size on the attractiveness of legs in pantyhose made from single covered yarn with colored polyurethane core yarn. The results showed that, for the enhanced visual appeal of legs in pantyhose, (1) the area ratio and position of three areas in the distribution of lightness difference were very important factors; (2) it was desirable to design and produce the appropriate size of pantyhose for various sized legs in order to enhance their attractiveness.
