Abstract

In this study, the influence of pantyhose (PS) color in beige-colored PS on the visually perceived PS surface roughness, as well as the resultant evaluation index, were examined. In addition, sensory evaluation and relevant statistical analyses of the visually perceived PS surface roughness were performed for a leg model with various beige-colored PS among Japanese females. However, the stitch density of the extended PS fabric on a leg model was the same across all PS samples. Moreover, the relationship between the visually perceived pantyhose surface roughness, the fabric color, and the visual features obtained via image analysis of the PS-covered leg model, were investigated. Although the physical surface roughnesses were the same, the obtained results confirmed the influence of the PS color on the visually perceived PS surface roughness. Additionally, the lightness (L* value) of PS color was proved to be useful as an evaluation index for the visually perceived PS surface roughness.
