Unit of Competency LMTFD5003B - Analyse fit model
Description This unit covers the skills and knowledge to analyse and select the fit model used to present sample garments and derive garment fit and size standard.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application The unit applies to the size standard representations that are required in the design, manufacture and retail of fashion for the target market to ensure that the targeted customer population is addressed in size range and appropriate data is obtained from research. This data also provides a solid basis for design, pattern derivation and garment construction for a sizing system.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team-related activities.The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:requirements prescribed by legislation, awards agreements and conditions of employmentstandard operating procedureswork instructionsoral, written and visual communicationquality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section outputhousekeeping tasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control, and recyclingThis unit requires skills in communication to take and document measurements. Planning and organising, problem solving and initiative and enterprise skills are required to determine garment fit and sizing requirements. Self management skills are required to ensure quality standards are met.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

  • Body reference points are established and marked.
  • Body measurements of fit model are taken and recorded.
  • Designer and product development team are consulted for analysis of measurements.
       
Element: Assess physical characteristics
  • Body characteristics are identified and compared to standard body.
  • Unique features are identified and assessed for potential problems in fit.
  • Information on body characteristics of fit model is recorded.
       
Element: Select representation of fit model
  • Types of dress forms or 3D avatars available to designers and technicians are identified and evaluated according to resources.
  • Comparisons to fit model are made and appropriate representation is selected.

Resource implications

Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.

Context for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment.

Interdependent assessment

This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

UNDERPINNING KNOWLEDGE
