ABSTRACT

In this study, I tried to develop ZIGTECHnology clothing for renovation that can correct the body shape of elderly women according to aging and delay the change of body shape. Develop and suggest corrective clothing for elderly women with easy movement that can alleviate symptoms and delay changes in body shape by analyzing body types for each symptom, such as bending of shoulders, back and waist caused by aging and diseases such as spinal curvature. As a result of the wear evaluation of the developed ZIGTECHnology clothing designs 1, 2, and 3, in terms of functionality, Design 1 was evaluated as excellent by reducing the back angle by 3.17°, but design 3 was evaluated as the most excellent considering the fit. In the clothing of elderly women, the need for clothing that complements physical shortcomings increases, so it is thought that continuous development of body shape relief devices should be made.
