Siuvinių dizaino ir technologijos darbo tikslas suprojektuoti popkultūros vaikiškus marškinius. Darbo pradžioje pateikiama literatūros apžvalga. Joje aprašomas teigiamos ir neigiamos popkultūros išraiškos, pateikiami pavyzdžiai. Vaikiškuose marškiniuose naudojami parinkto personazo - Hario Poterio akcentai: apskritimo formos detalės - įmituojančios akinukus, užrašas nugaros aptinėje dalyje, priklijuojamos aplikacijos. Įvertinus eksplotavimo sąlygas parenkamas audinys – bambuko ir elastano mišinys, nurodomos pagrindinės audinio savybės, pateikiami palyginimai, nurodomos pagrindinės medžiagos charakteristikos, taip pat nurodomos įdėklinės medžiagos savybės bei charakteristikos. Parenkams konstravimo metodikos, sudaromas bazinis pagrindas. Atliktas konstrukcinis modeliavimas: perkeltas pečių įsiuvas, nubraižoma papetės detalė, sudaromi skeltukai, priekio užsagas, sumodeliuojama rankovė. Programa COMTENSE atliekama detalių gradacija bei nustatomos medžiagos sąnaudos. Siuvant vaikiškus marškinius kokybės kontrolė tikrinma keliais etapais: žaliavos tikrinimas, lekalų tikrinimas, detalių paklijuotų klijiniais įdėklais tikrinimas, tarpinė kontrolė, galutinė kontrolė. Pateikiamos parinktų bendrosios paskirties universaliųjų ir specialiųjų siuvimo įrenginių charakteristikos, specialiosios paskirties siuvimo pusautomačių charakteristikos, gaminiui apdoroti rekomenduojamų higroterminio apdorojimo įrenginių charakteristikos, bei gaminio apdorojimo siūlių charakteristikos. Sudaroma... [toliau žr. visą tekstą] / The aim of sewing design and technology work is to design pop - culture on children‘s shirts. There is are literature review at the begining of the work. There are described the positive and the negative expressions of pop – culture, there are also presented examples. There are resed accents of the chosen character – Harry Potter in the children‘ shirts such as: the details of the circle – imitating small spectacles, the wote at the bottom part the back, stick ao appliques. The material is chosen after evaluatig conditions of the exploitation – the mixture of the bamboo and elastane, the main features of the material are explained, comparisons are presentented, the main characteristics of the material, there are also the pointed out features and characteristics of the supplementary material. The design methodology is chosen, a bist of the basic framework. Design simulation was carried out: it was moved to the shoulder dart, there were ploted yoke details, it was. Concluded slits, was made the front fastener, the sleve was shaped. The programme COMTENSE makes the gradation of details and was determined the cost of materials. Qualitywas checked in several stager stitching children‘s shirts: materials testing, mold testing, details, which were sticked glue pot inserts testing, an interim review, final review. There were presented chosen characteristics cammon purpose, multipurpose of special sewing equipments, special destination of sewing semiautomatic hygrothermal performance... [to full text]

The purposes of this study were (1) to identify selected consumers' attitudes toward purchasing domestic- made shirts and those imported from a low-wage country, and (2) to evaluate the relative effects of price, brand name, and country-of-origin on perception of quality of men's dress shirts. A convenience sample of 120 male undergraduate students registered at Virginia Tech completed questionnaires in selected classes. Research hypotheses that consumers' attitudes toward selected beneficial and imagery attributes would be more positive for domestic shirts than for imported shirts were supported in the single cue situation. The effects of price, brand name and country-of-origin on consumers' quality perception were significant with price and brand name slightly more important than country-of-origin. The interactions between price and country-of-origin, and between brand name and country-of-origin were not significant. / Master of Science

The purpose of this research was to investigate the fit of men's dress shirt collars among men 18 years and older and sized small to large. Fit was evaluated by the subject's response to a comfort scale based on physical comfort. Static fit (ease) was determined by subtracting the neck measurement from the collar measurement. Dynamic fit was determined by subtracting the ease for movement from the ease in the collar. Men from Virginia Tech and the vicinity of Blacksburg, Virginia were asked to participate. One hundred men volunteered for this study. The data analysis was conducted on 90 of the 100 surveys. Some surveys were eliminated due to incomplete information. Pearson Correlation Coefficient was used to determine if there was a positive correlation between ease and comfort. The data were analyzed with Analysis of Variance to determine if there were significant differences between age groups for perceived comfort or for ease. Analysis of Variance was used to determine if there were significant differences between size groups for perceived comfort, for ease for movement or for ease. Analysis of variance was also used to determine whether there were significant differences between age groups and size groups for comfort or for ease. The results of the study showed that 2.2% of the subjects did not have ease in static fit and 4.4% of the subjects did not have ease for movement in dynamic fit. There was a significant positive correlation between ease and comfort. There were significant differences between age groups for perceived comfort but not for ease; there were significant differences between size groups for ease but not for ease for movement or perceived comfort; and there were no significant differences between age groups and size groups for perceived comfort or for ease. Although the median value for ease for movement was 1/4 of an inch, 16 of the 90 men (17.8% ) had greater than 1 14 of an inch ease for movement. The results of the present study and Langan's study (1984) indicated that the tie may be the major contributor to neckwear tightness. / Master of Science
