A brief introduction to
Shape based segmentation
Metail has developed a way to
examine customers' shape
normalizing for size
We do this by comparing the
customer’s hip and bust size
(based on the retailer size
chart) to waist size
Thus two people of different
size may have the same shape
– and vice versa
Waist = 79cm
= Size 14
Bust = 93cm
= Size 12
Hips = 106cm
= Size 14.4
Bust size away
from waist
= -1
Hip size away
from waist
= 0.2
