Abstract
The purposes of this study were to examine the relationship among vanity, selfconsciousness, and brand consciousness. The subjects used for this study were three hundred and eighty-four female college students who live at Seoul and its suburb. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, Cronbach's alpha, Pearson's correlations, and t-test were used. All instruments which were used for this study showed over 0.85 for Cronbach's alpha values. As the results, first, there were significant correlation relationships among vanity, self-consciousness, and brand consciousness in female college students. Second, there were significant differences between high self-consciousness group and low selfconsciousness group on vanity and two vanity variables such as physical view vanity and physical concern vanity. High self-consciousness group had higher scores on total vanity as expected. Also high self-consciousness group had higher scores on physical view vanity and physical concern vanity than low self-consciousness group. Finally, there were significant differences between high self-consciousness group and low self- consciousness group on brand consciousness. That is, compared to low self-c onsciousness group, high self-consciousness group showed higher brand consciousness significantly. Based on these results of this study, fashion brand management marketing strategies such as consumer-brand relationship marketing would be provided to fashion marketers or fashion retailers.
