Information processing method, garment order reception management apparatus, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

1. An information processing method performed by a processor, the method comprising:

receiving a selection of a garment from a user;

calculating a price of the garment on a basis of a type of the selected garment and parameters relating to a design and materials set for the garment;

causing a display part to display the calculated price;

changing the parameters in conjunction with an input from the user;

receiving a setting of a blending ratio of the materials composing the selected garment from the user; and

causing the display part to display a graph indicating a property of the garment based on the set blending ratio,

wherein causing the display part to display the calculated price includes causing the display part to display the price that reflects the changed parameters in response to the changing of the parameters and causing the display part to display the price of the garment based on the set blending ratio in response to the setting of the blending ratio of the materials.

2. The information processing method according to claim 1 further comprising:

generating an appearance image of the garment on the basis of the parameters,

wherein causing the display part to display the calculated price includes causing the display part to display the appearance image that reflects the changed parameters in response to the input from the user.

3. The information processing method according to claim 1 , wherein calculating the price of the garment includes calculating the price of the garment further on the basis of a parameter relating to a manufacturing process set for the garment.

4. The information processing method according to claim 3 , wherein the parameter relating to the manufacturing process includes at least one of an index indicating a time required to manufacture the garment and an index indicating a complexity of the manufacturing process.

5. The information processing method according to claim 1 , wherein the calculating the price of the garment includes calculating the price of the garment on the basis of a unit price of the material and an amount of the material used for the garment.

6. The information processing method according to claim 5 , wherein the calculating the price of the garment includes increasing a value of the price as the amount of the material used for the garment increases.

7. The information processing method according to claim 1 , wherein changing the parameters is capable of continuously changing at least some of the parameters relating to the design or the parameters relating to the materials, and wherein calculating the price of the garment includes changing the price of the garment in conjunction with the continuous change of the some of the parameters.

8. The information processing method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

setting an operation area on the display part that receives an input of a change operation from the user for changing the parameters,

wherein changing the parameters includes changing at least one of the parameters relating to the design and the parameters relating to the materials on the basis of a displacement of the change operation in the operation area.

9. The information processing method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

causing the display part to display a first object that extends through an operation area and a second object that moves on the first object in accordance with an operation of the user,

wherein changing the parameters includes changing the parameters relating to the design on the basis of an amount and a direction of displacement of the second object.

10. The information processing method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a setting of a budget of the user for purchasing the garment,

wherein causing the display part to display the calculated price includes causing the display part to display that the price calculated exceeds the budget when the price exceeds the budget.

11. A garment order reception management apparatus comprising a processor operatively coupled to memory, the processor configured to:

receive a selection of a garment from a user;

calculate a price of the garment on a basis of a type of the selected garment and parameters relating to a design and materials set for the garment;

cause a display part to display the calculated price;

change the parameters in conjunction with an input from the user;

receive a setting of a blending ratio of the materials composing the selected garment from the user; and

cause the display part to display a graph indicating a property of the garment based on the set blending ratio,

wherein causing the display part to display the price that reflects the changed parameters in response to the change of the parameters and causing the display part to display the price of the garment based on the set blending ratio in response to the setting of the blending ratio of the materials.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising software instructions that, when executed by a processor, perform a method comprising:

receiving a selection of a garment from a user;

calculating a price of the garment on a basis of a type of the selected garment and parameters relating to a design and materials set for the garment;

causing a display part to display the calculated price; and

changing the parameters in conjunction with an input from the user;

receiving a setting of a blending ratio of the materials composing the selected garment from the user; and

causing the display part to display a graph indicating a property of the garment based on the set blending ratio,

wherein causing the display part to display the calculated price causes the display part to display the price that reflects the changed parameters in response to the changing of the parameters and causing the display part to display the price of the garment based on the set blending ratio in response to the setting of the blending ratio of the materials.
