Consumer needs can bemet by determining their functional, expressive, and aesthetic requirements. Aesthetic garment quality is one of the mostimportant problems of the apparel design in Ukraine. This is complex problembecause it is relaited to all stages of the design process. Aesthetic qualityis usually achieved as a result of harmonization an outfit’s colors,shapes, fabrics and proportions. Harmonize means to bring things into harmony,or to make things compatible. However, the ability to harmonize an outfit’sfeatures is depended from designer’s personality. Some professionals have a naturaleye for it, having a so-called “sense of style.” This is not the same as“fashion sense” – knowing what is in vogue – but a feel for line and design.The lack of dress-sense could make the garment uncompetitive, though thegarment’s fitting is perfect. Thus all kinds of garments must have enough aethetic quality level. Besides that,fashion designer needs to have some numerical methods to evaluate the level ofharmonization in order to reveal the weaknesses in the garment design. Methodof complex assessment of aesthetic quality in clothes design is based on thecalculation of the weighting factors of unit indexes of aesthetic quality. Compiled list of indexeswhich characterise aesthetic garment quality is represented in the tableform. In order to obtain formal methods for the evaluation aesthetic qualityand harmonization an outfit’s featureswe calculated the weighting factors of theindexes of the harmonisation aethetic garment quality. Sequence ofactions for the evaluation a level of harmonization is presented on example ofwomen’s outfits, particularly dresses. CR - Azgaldov, G. G., & Azgaldova L. А. (1971).
