Bodymetrics an Exact Fit in Designer Jeans
Posted: 10/4/08Scanning your body with a machine and taking hundreds of measurements in an effort to make the best jeans possible for your shape may sound a little like science fiction. But rest assured, Bodymetrics, Made to Measure Jeans, are today’s reality. Farther advanced than custom made tailored clothing, the Bodymetrics Pod scans your body and in five seconds has enough measurements to make a digital pattern for jeans that are as close to a second skin as possible.
Using light scanning technology, the pod measures every nuance in the legs, knees,
waist, hips and buttocks. Once completed, a virtual model is created which when used to size the jeans, makes a perfect body fit. Then, working work with a design consultant to determine the features that you prefer on your jeans, you will create your own pair of jeans. Further, the consultant will help you to make choices that are flattering to your shape and size. It is said that once you own your first pair of exact fit jeans, you will never buy off-the-rack jeans again.
Originally only offered to female customers, Bodymetrics now sells a limited range for men as well. For women, though, both designer labels and the company’s own jeans are available. Choose from a variety of fabrics and finishings as well.
The idea of science and fashion converging is taking the fashion industry by storm as several luxury retailers including Selfridges, Harrods and Bonmarché have installed the Bodymetrics Pod to service their customers. A recent television documentary on jean making listed the prices at about five hundred dollars US but of course it is always best to check a retail location for accuracy.
