Adaptive Fashion
Custom Tailoring
The Problem Statement
I need custom tailoring for my apparel as I am a special needs person and require a lot of movement during sports and travel.
The Goal Statement
Design an app which has capability to take order from a special need person and let the tailor understand the same to output a near perfect apparel.
The Research
- It is difficult for people with special needs to get custom apparel.
- The material for the apparel is mostly not suitable for people with limited movement.
- If the person has hyper movement then the apparel and material does not provide comfort and flexibility.
- The stitched clothes should support long hours of wear and movability.
- Should go with latest trend in fashion, print and colour.
The Solution
UI
- Aesthetics
- Navigation
- Typography
- Visual design
- Accessibility
UX
- As most of my target audience will be specially abled need of accessibility is the most important.
- The need to get information describing disability can be intimidating, hence special care needs to be taken to get the input right or else the whole effort fails.
- The solution should make them aware of the product and its colour and feel.
- The accessibility feature should also be added, meaning, read aloud, haptic feed back.
- How many categories are we considering/addressing ? Category based on need: Physically disabled, recovery , elderly, assisted dressing, dwarfism, Patients ? Category based on apparel: Headgear, footwear, top wear, bottom wear, full length body suit, bath wear,
