1990 년대 후반 이후 스마트 의류 연구는 기능성 및 인간 친화적인 측면으로의 접근 필요성이 증가됨에 따라 기능 및 사용자 중심의 연구로 진행되어 오고 있다. 이에 따라 최근 스마트 의류의 발달은 사용자 애플리케이션을 중심으로 세분화되어 개발되고 있다다변하는 의류 시장에서 스마트 의류 상품기획은 기존의 의류 상품기획과 같이 소비자 트렌드 중심의 경향과 함께 소비자의 특성을 파악하는 연구의 필요성이 대두되어 그 중요성은 날로 부상하고 있다. 그러나, 기존의 스마트 의류의 연구는 기능성, 사용성 기반의 연구자 중심의 개발이 이루어지고 있어, 소비자 중심, 마켓 중심의 연구가 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 스마트 의류 기획에 있어 가장 밀접한 관련이 예상되는 의복 및 의복행동 라이프 스타일과 디지털 라이프 스타일을 중심으로 라이프 스타일의 유형을 분석하고, 라이프 스타일에 따른 스마트 의류 수용도와 인지도를 조사하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 추후 스마트 의류의 수요가 가장 높을 것으로 예상되는 20 대, 30 대를 중심으로 이루어졌으며, 라이프 스타일에 따른 스마트 의류의 수용도와 인지 여부 및 스마트 의류의 선호도를 조사하여 그 결과를 제시하였다.그 결과 소비자 라이프스타일은 유행추구형, 감각적 정보추구형, 실용적 기능추구형의 세 유형으로 도출되었으며, 유행추구형 집단이 스마트 의류에 대한 인지도가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 유행추구형은 엔터테인먼트 의류군을 선호하였으며, 스마트 의류 속성 중 외관을 다른 집단에 비해 중시하는 경향을 보였다. 감각적 정보추구형은 감성교감의류 및 생체 신호 측정의류의 선호도 및 필요성을 높게 인지하고 있었으며, 실용적 기능 추구형은 생체 신호 측정의류 및 환경과의 상호작용 하는 의류에 대해 선호하는 경향을 나타내며, 스마트 의류의 필요성을 다른 집단에 비해 높게 느끼고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 스마트 의류의 인식 및 선호도 등 상품화에 실질적인 평가 자료를 제시함으로써, 추후 스마트 의류의 상용화에 있어 시장 가능성 및 상품화를 위한 스마트 의류 기획 방향을 제시한 것에 의의가 있다.
