This paper analyzes the currently used techniques and methods of 3d technologies provide input for the design of clothing. Revealed their strengths and weaknesses, as well as the inability to use for the design of adaptive clothing for people with reduced mobility, to move from the use of wheelchairs. Identified requirements, allowing to develop a new approach to provide input for the design of adaptive clothing for people with reduced mobility.
