DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrates a fashion dress according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the dress appears fashion, and not stereotypical or unwieldy. After wearing the dress, one may immediately have a perfect body curve. Before the dress is made, a golden ratio of a person's body is outlined by a professional. According to the golden ratio and kinesiology, the dress is made by three-dimensionally forming and combining plates. This dress may be designed and functioned to effectively contract a relaxing abdomen, to sculpture a waist, and to centralize a chest.
The above fashion dress may be a body-shaping dress. The body-shaping dress is different from a conventional body-shaping dress. A conventional body-shaping dress is often stereotypical and unwieldy and is without popular feeling. Such body-shaping dress is not welcome, so it is usually made to be an underwear rather than an outerwear. Even one wears such underwear, however, he or she may sometimes feel embarrassed and awkward, when he or she faces to an intimate person.
The fashion dress, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, may have no above conventional disadvantages. Therefore, the fashion dress may be made not only to be a body-shaping dress, but also to be an outerwear or swimming wear. The body-shaping dress may be made to have a golden ratio, to be without a bra, to be without a crotch. The body-shaping dress may be for a male person.
The fashion dress of the first embodiment may have a high elasticity coefficient. Compared to a conventional body-shaping dress, the fashion dress of the first embodiment may shape one's body in an efficient way. Moreover, the fashion dress may prevent one's body curve from being changed. Furthermore, the fashion dress may prevent one from eating too much or from relaxing his or her pelvis.
The fashion dress may be produced by at least sewing a fabric. The fabric may be sewn by using a silk yarn. The fabric, for example, is shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3.
