I guess you would have to have some kind of scan or measuring device that would *map* the plains, hills and valleys of your body. This information would then be transfered to a pattern-map of your personal contours. Then you may pick your preference of clothing/ IE: T-shirt, underwear, trousers, etc.
The map would be printed onto your choice of clothing with names you may provide for areas of your own body.
This can be used as a guideline for people wishing to modify some parts of their body, like reducing Tudor Mountain to become a hill, or increasing Bitsy Biceps to Bumper Biceps! Of course, once you have changed your *topographics*, you should have a new garment made.

I don't quite understand [pocmloc]'s link. Maybe I should have been more descriptive, stating that this clothing would look like a topographic map with the lines and altitudes marked. |

"maybe I should have been more descriptive" |
|
| |
What would the scale between contour lines be? |
|
| |
Ah, I see. Well, consider my link a 'relief map' perhaps? |
|
| |
OK, my idea was clothing that looks like a topographic map of your county, only it's of your body!! You know how some women have *high altitude* breasts? |

A flat corn field comes to mind. But that could just
be because of my latest relocation to the Midwest. |

Strangely, only this morning, it crossed my mind that there might be a market for those kind of implants filled with helium.. |
|
| |
I think I meant *high elevation*- but helium implants would be great for swimming without having to use a float!! |

you could make the clothing out of photo-sensitive
lycra, and then use Structured-light illumination
(which is usually used for 3D scanning.) (see link) |

great link [JesusH] thanks!! |
