Sizing garment with left and right parts with different fits

Abstract

A sizing garment, for a garment of a selected size, has a left part with dimensions for a first fit and a right part with dimensions for a second fit. This sizing garment is applicable to any bifurcated garment. A sizing garment has at least a left part with a first dimension at a first point of measurement, and a right part with a second dimension substantially different from the first dimension at the first point of measurement. A set of sizing garments of different sizes and fits can be manufactured and provided to retailers to assist customers trying on garments before making a purchase. The sizing garment is not intended to be the actual garment selected, purchased, and worn by the individual, but instead is used during the fitting process to allow the individual to see different fits side-by-side as worn.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A sizing garment comprising
 a left part with a first dimension for a first fit in a size for a garment; and   a right part with a second dimension for a second fit in the size for the garment, wherein the first fit is different from the second fit and the first dimension is substantially different from the second dimension.   
     
     
         2 . The sizing garment of  claim 1 , wherein the left part has the first dimension at a first point of measurement, and the right part has the second dimension at a second point of measurement corresponding to the first point of measurement. 
     
     
         3 . The sizing garment of  claim 2 , wherein the garment is pants, where the left part is a left pant leg having a knee and the right part is a right pant leg having a knee. 
     
     
         4 . The sizing garment of  claim 3 , wherein the first point of measurement is the knee of the first pant leg and the second point of measurement is the knee of the second pant leg. 
     
     
         5 . The sizing garment of  claim 4 , wherein the left pant leg has an ankle and the second pant leg has an ankle, wherein a dimension of the ankle of the left pant leg is substantially different from a dimension of the ankle of the right pant leg. 
     
     
         6 . The sizing garment of  claim 1 , wherein the garment is a bifurcated garment 
     
     
         7 . A pattern for manufacturing a sizing garment comprising a left part with a first dimension for a first fit in a size for a garment, and a right part with a second dimension for a second fit in a size for a garment, wherein the first fit is different from the second fit and the first dimension is substantially different from the second dimension. 
     
     
         8 . The pattern of  claim 7 , wherein the left part has the first dimension at a first point of measurement, and the right part has the second dimension at a second point of measurement corresponding to the first point of measurement. 
     
     
         9 . The pattern of  claim 8 , wherein the garment is pants, where the left part is a left pant leg having a knee and the right part is a right pant leg having a knee. 
     
     
         10 . The pattern of  claim 9 , wherein the first point of measurement is the knee of the left pant leg and the second point of measurement is the knee of the right pant leg. 
     
     
         11 . The pattern of  claim 10 , wherein the left pant leg has an ankle and the second pant leg has an ankle, wherein a dimension of the ankle of the left pant leg is substantially different from a dimension of the ankle of the right pant leg. 
     
     
         12 . The pattern of  claim 7 , wherein the garment is a bifurcated garment 
     
     
         13 . The pattern of  claim 7 , wherein the pattern is a digital pattern. 
     
     
         14 . The pattern of  claim 7 , wherein the pattern is an object comprising a material. 
     
     
         15 . The sizing garment of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of sizing garments of different sizes.
