현대 디자인 분야에는 건축이나 제품, 의복 등에까지 투명성이 디자인의 매우 중요한 요소로 활용되고 있다. 아름다우면서도 기능성과 견고함을 지닌 투명한 재료들이 과학기술의 발달에 힘입어 속속 개발되고 있으며, 또한 투명성 디자인은 현대 디자인의 트랜드인 즐거움과 유희 등을 표현하는 감성 트랜드와 잘 부합되기 때문이다. 본 연구는 이러한 시대의 흐름에 발맞추어 사용자들에게 재미와 즐거움의 가치를 감각적인 부분과 통합할 수 있는 디자인 개발에 목적을 두고, 20세기 후반부터 트랜드의 커다란 부분을 차지하고 있는 투명성을 좀 더 재미있고 여성스러운 감성을 자극할 수 있는 새로운 재해석의 방향을 찾아 패션 디자인을 제안하고자 한다.

섬유산업내의 정보를 수집하고 체계화하여 경쟁력이 있는 제품을 생산해 내는데 있어서 데이타 베이스를 제공하는 일은 중요하다. 그 일부로서 제품의 경쟁력과 부가가치를 향상시킬수 있는 상표가 가지는 영향은 매우 크다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 국내외 많은 선행 연구자들은 상표의 인지도, 상표 이미지와 상표 포지셔닝에 관하여 연구하였으며 의복의 구매행동과의 관련성을 규명하고자 하였다.[1,3,5](중략)

스포츠웨어는 착용 중의 쾌적함을 위하여 자연환경의 변화, 인체의 운동 및 활동 상황에 맞추어 그 기능을 적절히 조절할 수 있어야 한다. 인체는 체온 조절을 위해 땀을 흘리고 이 땀이 의복 밖으로 원활히 방출되지 못하면 덥고 습한 온열 생리적 불쾌감이 유발된다. 그러므로 온열적 불쾌감을 발생시키지 않도록 하는 것이 스포츠웨어가 가져야 할 중요한 기능이다. 이러한 환경 및 인체변화에 대응하여 투습ㆍ발수 소재가 일상 스포츠 웨어의 소재로 널리 쓰이고 있다. (중략)

This study investigated the garments of middle-aged women undergoing menopause and their satisfaction with them. Data were collected through a survey of 288 middle-aged women and analyzed using SPSS 17.0. As a result (in terms of degree of symptoms) backache, arthralgia, muscular pain and heat sensation were indicated as significantly more outstanding in the menopause group rather than the menopausal transition group. As a countermeasure to physiological symptoms, a change of temperature (warming or cooling) was applied for backache and arthralgia as well as taking medicine for stomachaches and muscular pain. Body parts suffering from heat sensations were the face, back neck, chest center, waist and hip. Body parts suffering from arthralgia and muscular pain were the shoulder and hip joints. The most significant purchasing factor for menopausal women was the fit of outerwear and antibiosis in underwear; however, women not undergoing menopause selected comfortableness when moving as the most important factor. In terms of body shaping and thermoregulation function, the satisfaction degree in underwear was significantly different between the two groups. Menopausal women wanted functional underwear that provided functions such as thermoregulation, absorption of secretions, and antibiosis.

This research is carried out by investigating and researching into middle and high school students around capital regions in the hopes of enhancing their satisfaction to their uniforms and their desire for self-expression, resulting in a positive notion to uniforms being settled in among the students. In the regards of benefits of pursuing clothes, female students are highly pursuing individual characteristics, aesthetics, and economy all depending on the demographic factors. It is notable that students in Seoul are pursuing those elements more strongly than those in Gyeonggi-do. As for the attitude towards wearing school uniforms, the safety weighs a lot among female students. Meanwhile, those in Gyeonggi-do were more inclined to economy as they prefer wearing uniform more often than not. Students who are pursuing individual characteristics and aesthetics are less likely to pursue economy, whereas those who are pursuing practicality are pursuing better economy. Those in favor of economy, meanwhile, are pursuing aesthetics, safety, as well as economy.

본 연구는 노멕스 직물과 일반 방염직물의 쾌적성에 영향을 주는 중요한 인자를 찾기 위하여 직물의 열적 성질과 역학 성질에 관하여 연구한 것이다. 사용된 직물은 재해를 일으킬 수 있는 환경에서 방호용 의복으로 사용되는 노멕스 직물이 주를 이루며, 비교를 위하여 방염직물과 쾌적성이 좋은 일반직물을 포함시켰다. 직물의 물리적 성질과 열 특성을 측정하였으며, 역학 성질을 측정하여 노멕스 직물과 다른 직물을 서로 비교 분석하였다. 노멕스 직물은 파이버 자체가 뻣뻣하기 때문에 쾌적성을 향상시키기 위해서는 소프트감을 높이는 것이 중요한 요소라는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 같은 노멕스 직물이라도 쾌적성 면에서 서로 차이를 보여주므로 직물의 구조적 성질이 직물을 구성하고 있는 파이버 성질보다 쾌적성에 더 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다.
