The width of the git, dong-jeong (thin white cloth-covered paper collar of Hanbok), the sleeve, and gooreum have also changed. The git and the barae (the curve part of the sleeve) have changed from straight patterns to curves. The skirt had changed in wrinkles arrangement, length, and silhouette. The men's Hanbok jeogori and sleeves were lengthened; the pants became wider and were lengthened, and the collar also became curved. The vest has not changed and the du-ru-ma-gi (coat) that once disappeared is being worn again; the bae-ja (vest) and magoja (over-jacket) are worn frequently in modern times.

As the development of denim products using new differentiated materials plays an important role regardless of their target age groups, there is an increasing need for the development of premium denim designs for senior women using various materials. As part of the strategy to develop such a design for the senior generation, a market survey was performed regarding commercially available premium denim products in the market, and the current trends in the denim market were researched and analyzed to make use of the results in design development. In addition, a differentiated material, hybrid yarn using conjugated dyeing (HYCD) was applied to use several washing techniques capable of highlighting the unique features of denim clothing. The design of four items including a jacket, vest, capri pants and long pants were suggested. These items were differentiated from other products by emphasizing their details such as stitching and pockets. In light of the current consumer trend to select denim jeans on the basis of their fashion-ability (e.g., silhouette or color) rather than practicality or price, it is considered meaningful to develop high value added, premium jean products for the senior generation using diverse materials and details. At the same time, performing further studies designed to demonstrate the stability and reliability of the developed products through consumers' comparative assessment is required.

Modern footwear is accepted as a fashion accessory that plays the role of a point of style, which reflects trends and makes use of individuality and stylishness, not a practical means itself. This study considers diverse types of western shoes, which had been historically popular from, and about a role in accordance with it, and grasps the occurrence background and the aesthetic characteristics in shoes type, which had initiated fashion in the historically cultural aspect. Thus, the aim is to be conducive to developing design related to modern shoes. As a result of this study, shoe styles have changed in relation to the historical situation throughout every period from medieval times to mid-modern times. Two functions of shoes, practicality and aesthetics, could be observed tendency of leading fashion in the middle of mutual control and supplementation according to social conditions, economic strength in a person of wearing shoes, social standing, and gender.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the differences of visual image on variations in the shoulder strap and length of the monokini swimsuit. Nine samples were examined: 3 variations of the shoulder strap and 3 variations of the swimsuit length. Data have been obtained from 90 fashion design majors and analyzed using Factor Analysis, Anova, Scheffe's Test and the MCA method. The results of the study are as follows: 1) The visual image, according to changes in the shoulder strap and length of monokini swimsuit, was composed of boldness factor, attention factor and attraction factor. Boldness was the most important factor in the monokini swimsuit. 2) The visual images according to changes in the shoulder strap of the monokini swimsuit are ranked in the order of one shoulder strap, strapless and two shoulder straps. They are shown to be untidy - a trendy image, showy -a characterful image and wanted to dress -an unnatural image. 3) As the swimsuit gets shorter, it has more untidy - trendy image. As the swimsuit gets longer, it looks more tidy and classic. 4) The number of shoulder straps and swimsuit length do not interact with each other in boldness factor, attention factor or attraction factor. However, the number of shoulder straps affects more than swimsuit length in the visual images of the monokini swimsuit.

본 연구의 목적은 해외여행 동기에 따라 여행자들의 집단을 나누고 각 집단별로 해외여행시 구매하는 상품이나 이용 매장의 특성을 비교하는데 있다. 문헌연구를 통해 여행동기와 구매상품의 종류와 속성, 쇼핑장소의 유형과 속성에 대한 주요 문항들을 추출하였다. 20-50대 해외여행 경험자 431명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고 K-평균 군집분석을 통해, 적극적 집단, 소극적 집단, 자연 쾌락추구 집단, 가족 발견추구 집단의 4개의 군집이 확인되었다. 적극적인 여행자들은 해외에서 구매하는 모든 상품종류에 대해 가장 높은 관심을 보였으며 다른 세 집단보다 유의하게 차이가 있었다. 특히 소극적인 여행자나 자연 쾌락추구 여행자들보다 패션 사치품이나 기념품 구매를 중요하게 생각하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 상품 속성에서 디자인과 명성, 실용성, 가격과 품질 등의 요인들을 중요하게 고려하였다. 구매 장소 측면에서는 적극적 집단은 지역 시장, 패션매장, 선물매장 순으로 선호하였으며 소극적인 여행자들은 패션매장을 더 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 구매장소 속성의 중요도는 편의성, 디스플레이, 매장위치 및 판촉활동 순으로 중요시되었으며 적극적인 여행자들은 다른 세 집단 여행자들보다 매장 편의성에 대한 관심이 유의하게 높았다. 가족 발견중심 여행자와 자연 쾌락추구 여행자 집단은 쇼핑행동이 비슷하거나 일부 요인에서만 차이가 있었다. 소극적 여행자들은 나머지 세 집단과 구별되게 모든 쇼핑행동에 대한 관심이 낮았다. 여행동기에 근거한 시장세분화는 서로 다른 쇼핑행동을 예측할 수 있는 변별력이 있음을 보여주었다.

The purpose of this study is to show inherent and differentiated beauty by designing costume knitwear using Dancho patterns representing peculiar beauty, thus expressing free and convenient knitwear in the modern sense for women with the image of reasonableness and elegance, proposing knit design using high-class materials for satisfying the demand for the highest. With regard to expression technique of works, I selected computer Jacquard method to indicate effective comparison effect of expression material and made expression with $12{\sim}14$ gauge as base by using computer knitting machine. Through above-mentioned research process and design using Knit CAD system, I obtained following conclusion. First, it is possible to express variously and widely traditional patterns by making the most of the beauty of the orient and by recomposing the patterns of plant patterns representing "feminine image". Second, it is possible to widely represent the sense you can feel from knit by expressing variously diversity of knit structure and Jacquard knitting structure and gauge. Finally, it is possible to express designs more freely and imaginably by using computer Knit CAD system instead of actual knitting of various knit expression technique and materials application.

The purpose of this study was to research the development of jacquard fabrics by the Bi-Dan patterns of Dan-Chung as one of the traditional korean symbols. For performing this design study, it designed a surface design of the geometric images in Bi-Dan patterns using by EAT Jacquard Textile CAD system and simulated to fabrics for the clothing & bags. To consider the modern image of Bi-Dan patterns in the Dan-Chung motives, the theoretical background was made on the basic elements, compositions and symbolic meanings of Dan-Chung patterns. To merchandise the fashion items and see the visual image, these jacquard fabric simulations was processed by two-dimension modeling through YoungWoo CNI CAD. The applied weave structure was based on a single layer of 5 or 10 points-satin and a double layer of 8 points-satin. Among the fabric simulations of Bi-Dan patterns, the six simulated fabrics were woven into the real jacquard fabrics under the electronic Stabuli jacquard loom in $120{\sim}130$ picks per inch and 171 ends per inch. These developed jacquard fabrics of Bi-Dan patterns were appeared a contemporary yet ethnic feeling so that they could make use of the unique korean cultural products by the further commercialization.

In view of our contemporary fashion, it is found that crossover between clothing and other items leads to creation of a new design and crossover of various cultural codes, ultimately creating a multicultural clothing design or any external outline of emerging costume designs by attempting mutual combination with other fields. Starting from a viewpoint that mutual combination style has significant effects on our contemporary fashion designs, this study intends to characterize external aspects of fashion design that changes through mutual combination style. This study focused upon analyzing costumes released by contemporary fashion designers after 2000, and addressed a variety of mutual combination styles. It gives various examples on mutual combination in fashion, seeking first to look into typical examples of mutual combination styling between fashion and art, between fashion and space and between fashion and technology. Based on those examples, this study classified crossover styles into 6 major categories such as attachment, suspension, modification, fusion, association and embedment. As a result, this study comes to a conclusion that external changes by mutual combination are characterized largely by overlap, simultaneity and deconstruction.
