Using the spinor theory, a systematic and uniform description of \(\mathrm{SU}(3)\)-structures in dimension 6 and of \(\mathrm G_2\)-structures in dimension 7 is given. \(\mathrm{SU}(3)\)-manifolds and \(\mathrm G_2\)-manifolds are considered as Riemannian spin manifolds of dimension 6 or 7, respectively, equipped with a real spinor field of length one. A method to construct \(\mathrm G_2\)-structures on cones over an \(\mathrm{SU}(3)\)-manifold is also given.
