Frontal and profile images of human body were taken by digital camera. The width, the whole thickness, the front segment thickness and back segment thickness of cross-sections at chest, waist, abdomen and hip were measured by photogrammetric measurement. The curve consisted of two-elliptic arcs and BP (Back-Propagation) Neural Network were employed to model chest girth, waist girth, abdomen girth and hip girth based on the measured data, and the girths were obtained respectively. These two methods were compared in this paper.
