Men’s Long Pant (Woven)

Abstract

In this Final Year Design Project, my objective was to produce a men’s long pant, specifically a chino, based on the measurements of a male dummy available in our apparel laboratory. I selected this item to expand my experience beyond the typical garments—such as T-shirts, shirts, or leggings—usually taught during our coursework. Developing a men’s long pant introduced me to additional measurement points and unique challenges, enriching my understanding of garment construction. Throughout the project, I encountered several difficulties. For instance, the waist and bottom measurements of the pant differed, and there were design elements at the waist that required careful adjustment. Moreover, the front and back widths of men’s pants must be different, with the front width generally being smaller than the back. To resolve these issues, I took multiple measurements, discussed corrections with the pattern master, and made necessary adjustments to achieve a proper fit. With guidance from my advisor and assistance from a few industry experts, I aimed to create a distinctive and high-quality product for this final year project. This experience allowed me to apply my theoretical knowledge to a practical setting, covering measurement, pattern design, fabric selection, cutting, sewing, and finishing, and to successfully deliver a garment that meets academic and professional standards.
