“…It can thus be concluded that research on the computational design of clothing for people with disabilities has great potential. People with disabilities wish to emphasise their individuality, as aesthetically pleasing clothing decorates their physical appearance and enables them to enjoy a psychologically healthy environment [62]. Clothing for wheelchair users must be above all functional, must enable quick and independent dressing, must provide a psychical and psychological sense of comfort and stability, and be easy to maintain and trendy.…”

The purpose of clothing is to express an individual's style, and to meet the wearer's protection, functionality and comfort needs. Each of these requirements must be met in order to satisfy human needs and achieve a garment's functionality. Another function of clothing is to hide physical disabilities, if possible. The sitting position is very common in daily life. All clothing should therefore be comfortable in this position, as well. This is particularly important for disabled people who are restricted to the sitting position for their entire life due to their disabilities. These are people who suff er from paraplegia, multiple sclerosis or some injuries, and who have limited mobility using wheelchairs. This paper presents research on improving clothing design, adjusted to the special needs and demands of an individual, through the application of new technologies. In that respect, taking measurements is very important, as is the virtual simulation of garment fi tting as the result of cuts adapted to the sitting position.

“…For alignment and matching while sewing, a small mark known as a "notch" is made on the pattern's outside edge of the seam allowance. Block pattern building is the process of creating a simple, no-seam clothing pattern from which further, related designs can be created [7]. To create and design new patterns for garments, it is also known as a basic pattern or foundation pattern.…”

This study looked into competencies needed in patternmaking by clothing and textile students for large-scale garment production in Anambra State. Based on a descriptive survey research methodology, the study was guided by three research questions and three hypotheses that were significant at the level of 0.05. To concentrate on a determined specialized number, purposive sampling was used as the sampling approach. Twenty-five Home Economics Education students constituted the sample size for the study. Data were collected using a questionnaire produced by the researcher. Two professionals independently validated the instrument. Cronbach’s alpha was employed to examine the internal consistency of the instrument, and reliability value of 0.79 was obtained. A totes was used to evaluate the hypotheses after the responses were analyzed using the arithmetic mean and standard deviation scores. The results showed that there is no significant difference in the mean ratings of state and federal college of education students in slope/block patternmaking, flat pattern drafting and fashion draping for large-scale garment production in Anambra State. Recommendations and conclusions were drawn based on the findings.
