This paper proposes to use a fuzzy-neural network system to predict and display the drape image of garments made of different fabrics and styles. The new approach is used to develop a prototype drape prediction system to predict the drape of a lady's dress style made from different fabrics. The advantages and disadvantages of the new approach, compared with conventional ones, are discussed.
