+# Models
+A set of body measurement data for a range of standard models/sizes.
+
+This is used in freesewing for comparing made-to-measure sewing patterns to a range of standard sizes.
+
+## Install
+
+npm install --save @freesewing/models
+
+## Usage
+
+```js
+import { manSize38 } from @freesewing/models
+```
+
+which will give you an object with `measurement: value` pairs. 
+The example above gives you:
+
+```js
+{
+  bicepsCircumference:   305,
+  centerBackNeckToWaist: 495,
+  chestCircumference:    965,
+  hipsCircumference:     838,
+  naturalWaistToHip:     110,
+  neckCircumference:     391,
+  shoulderSlope:          49,
+  shoulderToShoulder:    444,
+  shoulderToWrist:       680,
+  wristCircumference:    185
+}
+```
+
+Available imports are:
+
+ - manSize34
+ - manSize36
+ - manSize40
+ - manSize42
+ - manSize44
+ - men
+
+ Note that `men` will return an object containing all the sizes.
