| Abstract | ||
| Raising the ready-made clothes industry in Egypt to the level of global competition requires solving some of the problems that it faces, and perhaps one of the most important problems facing ready-made clothes manufacturers, which have a direct impact on the nature of the products on the market, are ways of building models that are appropriate to the nature of the human body It represents for the consumer to obtain clothing that achieves comfort, balance, flexibility and control, and that it is appropriate for its needs and requirements and physical characteristics, and this will not be achieved except by adjusting the model in proportion to the requirements of the human body, and there are some special groups that suffer from problems of control and clothing matching of bodies They are due to the presence of physical characteristics that differ from other natural groups. Among these categories are the elderly group. The change in shape, body, and strength is the clearest expression of aging. Objectives: to extract the most important differences and differences that need to be adjusted in drawing the basic models of the women's corsage to suit the physical characteristics of the elderly women, and to reach a basic model modified for the corsage that fits the bodies of elderly women, in addition to measuring the extent to which the proposed models achieve the factors of matching and good control on the body, and the research used a measurement tool An estimate of the models implemented according to the “Aldrich” method before the amendment and after the amendment. Research sample consisted of (10) elderly women in the Cairo and Qalubiya regions, aged between (65: 70 years). The results: are to extract the most important differences and differences. To be adjusted in drawing the basic models of women making lines based on the physical characteristics of the elderly, and has been reached for the existence of statistically significant differences between the mean scores of the basic model of the female sample making lines of research before and after the amendment in favor after the amendment. | ||
