Basic Body Shapes By AI

 

 

 

Thanks to Ines's help, I managed to simplify the hand drawing of the 12 body shapes last semester with Adobe Illustrator. And as Ines suggested, I added some underwear based on the rules on look-fabulous.com.

Body Shape Test Experiment with Processing

Based on Trinny and Susannah's Body Shape Theory, I'm trying to realize an online test for body shape according to Lisa Rutland's quizz on www.bodyshapestyle.com.

Here I use Processing for programming. Take every question as a 2 branch tree, store the question and answers in the Array, and do some controller work after every mouse click.

The following is the main code for it:


String questions[] = {"Is one part of your body wider than another?",
"Is your stomach your widest part?",
"Do you have a clearly defined waist?",
"Is your waist long and sweeping?",
"Are you tall and slender?",
"Are you a plus size?",
"Is your bottom half your widest part?",
"Do you have a short waist?",
"Do you have saddlebags?",
"Is your top half your widest part?",
"Do your have big breast or soft middle?",
"Are your tall and slender?"
};

String shapes[] = {"Apple", "Brick", "Column", "Cello", "hourglass",
"Bell", "Vase", "Cornet", "Pear", "Skittle", "Lollipop", "Goblet"
};

public void mouseClicked() {
if(currentQ < 12) {
if(mouseY >= 360 || mouseY <= 380) {
if(mouseX >= 510 && mouseX <= 595) {
currentR = true;
nextQuestion();
redraw();
}
else if(mouseX >= 630 && mouseX <= 710) {
currentR = false;
nextQuestion();
redraw();
}
}
}
}

int nextQuestion() {
switch(currentQ) {
case 0:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 1;
}
else {
currentQ = 2;
}
break;
case 1:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 0;
}
else {
currentQ = 6;
}
break;
case 2:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 3;
}
else {
currentQ = 4;
}
break;
case 3:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 6;
}
else {
currentQ = 5;
}
break;
case 4:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 2;
}
else {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 1;
}
break;
case 5:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 3;
}
else {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 4;
}
break;
case 6:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 7;
}
else {
currentQ = 9;
}
break;
case 7:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 5;
}
else {
currentQ = 8;
}
break;
case 8:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 8;
}
else {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 9;
}
break;
case 9:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 10;
}
break;
case 10:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 11;
}
else {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 7;
}
break;
case 11:
if(currentR) {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 10;
}
else {
currentQ = 12;
shape = 11;
}
break;
}
return currentQ;
}

I also add some dynamic on it which is for the magic visual effect of the mirror.

12 Body Shape Defined by Hand Drawing

For the getting dress part interaction of my project, I'm doing some modeling simulation for different body shapes base on the theory of Trinny and Susannah's 12 Body Shapes.

The process for my body shape hand drawing is:
1. Visite the Website of Trinny and Susannah, learn about their definition of a certain body shape.  Try to search more information through Google.
2. Find out some famous person in this certain body shape, and get her body measurements through a website named How Much Do They Weight.
3. Enter the data of this person's body size into OptiTex online 3D model creation, create the model and download the image of three angle.
4. Based on the image of the model, draw the 2d image of the character in PhotoShop.
