How is this individualization achieved?

The source of the FIGURA development is the model with which a company carries out its garment fit tests.

In the first step, the model is scanned three-dimensionally. Here body measurements, shape and proportions are realistically captured and imaged.

A company-specific individual fashion manikin is then developed in cooperation with the customer. The ability to combine different ideal types (e.g. the torso of one model, the lower part of the body of another, etc.), the achievement of symmetry and the adjusting and matching of measurements all result in a model that is not only totally individual, but also absolutely ideal - in other words, the „supermodel“.

The individual fashion manikin is machined from light, shape-retaining, low-density polyethylene. Soft inserts in the chest, abdominal and hip areas realistically mirror the body‘s resilience characteristics.
