Abstract

In this paper, we proposed the dimensional system and pattern of middle-aged women's rashguard swimwear for breast cancer patients. First, a survey of 37 breast cancer patients was conducted to determine the preferred swimsuit design for breast cancer patients. According to a survey of breast cancer patients, a rashguard swimwear with a low-exposure chest was designed. It has a pocket shape in which the cap is easy to insert and the cap is fixed. Second, we developed a dimensional system for swimsuits for breast cancer patients. Using direct measurement data from Size Korea for 1,625 women aged 30 to 69, 17-sizes for breast cancer patient's swimsuits were set through cross-analysis of major dimensions, with a coverage rate of 74.3%. It also extracted a standard size of bust circ. 90cm, hip circ. 95cm, and trunk circ. 150cm. Third, we developed a pattern for the central size of the swimsuit for breast cancer patients. For this purpose, we first produced the first central size pattern, and then completed the pattern after modifying it through the second and third wearing experiments. Experimental suits were produced at each pattern-making stage to evaluate wearing fit and motion suitability. Finally, the reduction rate of each dimension item for optimal pattern production was obtained, and the lashguard swimwear pattern for breast cancer patients was developed.

본 연구에서는 유방암 환자를 위한 중년여성용 래쉬가드 수영복의 치수체계와 패턴을 제안하였다. 첫째, 유방암 환자가 선호하는 수영복 디자인을 선정하기 위해서 37명의 유방암 환자를 대상으로 한 설문조사를 통해 가슴이 두드러지지 않고 노출이 적은 래쉬가드의 수영복이 디자인되었으며, 이는 캡이 삽입되기 쉽고 캡이 고정되는 주머니 형태를 갖고 있다. 둘째는, 유방암 환자용 수영복을 위한 치수체계를 개발하였다. 이를 위해 대표사이즈를 젖가슴둘레, 엉덩이둘레, 몸통세로둘레로 정하고, 30~69세의 여성 1625명에 대한 사이즈 코리아의 직접 측정 데이터를 사용하여 교차분석을 실시하였다. 이를 통해 3차원 각 셀의 출현율을 기반으로 유방암 환자 수영복을 위한 17개의 사이즈를 설정하였으며, 중심사이즈를 젖가슴둘레 90cm-엉덩이둘레 95cm-몸통 세로둘레 150cm로 정하였다. 셋째는, 유방암 환자용 수영복 중심사이즈 패턴 개발을 하였다, 이를 위해 먼저 1차 중심사이즈 패턴을 제작하고, 그 후 2차, 3차 수정을 거쳐 패턴을 완성하였다. 각 패턴제작 단계마다 실험의를 제작하여 착용피트성 및 동작적합성 평가를 실시함으로써 최적의 패턴제작을 위한 각 치수항목의 축소율을 구했으며, 이를 반영하여 유방암 환자용 래쉬가드 수영복 패턴을 개발하였다.
