Purpose The development of a parametric garment pattern design system that utilizes anthropometric data for consumer-oriented garment pattern design. Design/methodology/approach Action list and interactive user interface were developed to design flat garment patterns. Three-dimensional drape simulation was also implemented to verify the fit of patterns. Findings Patterns generated by the parametric design system developed in this study could be modified easily by providing appropriate anthropometric data regardless of their complexities. Practical implications Parametric pattern design system can reduce considerable amount of time and cost by replacing the trial-and-error based grading processes. Social implications Parametric pattern design system can generate customized garment patterns quickly and easily. Therefore, it is expected to contribute to the production of sustainable fashion and textile by reducing the loss of time and resource. Originality/value A versatile and comprehensive action list structure was implemented to manage the drawing actions of the user. Various numerical analysis methods were also used to maintain the geometrical validity of patterns.
