With the development of online apparel retailing, the shape of the human body becomes the keystone when evaluating the dressing result in the cyberspace. In this paper, an automatic method has been presented to generate an avatar by deforming a candidate model against two orthogonal images of the online shopper. The candidate model is prepared from range scanned data. Mean value deformation is initiated to make it coincide with the input image contours. The correspondence between control points on the candidate model and points on the image contour are built automatically by applying positional and directional constraints respectively. Using the proposed method, we can approximate the body shape of the online shopper effectively by preserving his/her features.
