Abstract

A grading method and apparatus for garments including supplemental materials is provided. The grading method and apparatus calculates three-dimensional (3D) strain information between a 3D source avatar and a 3D target avatar, calculates two-dimensional (2D) strain information of a 2D pattern corresponding to source garments draped over the 3D source avatar based on the 3D strain information, determines grading information for grading the 2D pattern to correspond to the 3D target avatar based on the 2D strain information, identifies at least one supplemental material included in the source garments, extracts at least one polygon matching the at least one supplemental material among a plurality of polygons modeling the 2D pattern, and performs grading on the at least one supplemental material based on grading information of the at least one polygon.
