Features: This is a practical technical book that systematically introduces methods of garment structural design. With solid theoretical knowledge, extensive professional experience, and a strong foundation in mathematics, the author critically absorbs the strengths and advantages of both traditional Chinese cutting methods and Japanese prototyping cutting methods. Combining these with the long-term research findings, the author has pioneered a new, scientific, and user-friendly structural design method—Mother Pattern Cutting. This method is human-centric, based on a mother pattern, utilizes the principles and rules of mother pattern variation, and considers various related conditions. The book not only provides a preliminary theoretical summary of existing structural design issues but also boldly proposes a series of innovative and creative insights. It has made a valuable contribution to the development of garment structural design theory. The content is comprehensive, the knowledge is complete, the analysis is thorough, the conclusions are reliable, the methods are simple, and the applicability is wide. Additionally, the book is richly illustrated with examples. Due to the inclusion of key learning points and numerous exercises at the end of each chapter, it is highly suitable as a self-study resource for professionals or enthusiasts in systematic garment structural design. It is also an ideal textbook for garment design programs in educational institutions. At the same time, it serves as a worthwhile reference for anyone involved in garment-related fields.
