명품 패션 제품은 시대가 지나도 꾸준한 소비자를 확보하고 있으며, 최근에는 시장의 폭도 매우 넓어지고 구매하는 연령층도 다양하게 변화하고 있다. 명품제품을 구매하고자 하는 의도는 그 제품과의 브랜드 일치성이 많은 작용을 하고 있다는 기존 연구들의 결론을 바탕으로 본인 브랜드 일치성과 구매의도와의 관계에서 Self-Construal의 매개효과 분석에 대해 살펴보았다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 18.0과, AMOS 20.0을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 첫째, self-construal에 영향을 미치는 일치성으로는 사회적 일치성, 실제적 일치성, 이상적 일치성의 순으로 나타났으며, 둘째, self-construal에 대한 매개효과 분석결과, self-construal은 구매의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 결과와 실제적, 이상적 일치성과 구매의도의 관계에서 self-construal은 부분매개효과만 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 소비자들은 명품 패션 제품을 구매 할 때 브랜드에 대해 자신이 바라는 사회적 역할의 수행에 도움을 주는 도구로 인식하는 성향보다는 자신의 이미지를 표현해 주며 자신이 인지하는 모습과 선택한 브랜드가 일치하는 성향을 더 바라는 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 결과적으로 브랜드를 소비하는 소비자 개인의 개성과 주관적인 환경적 여건이 잘 나타내어지기를 원하는 것으로 볼 수 있으며, 개성을 나타내지 못하는 경향에 대해 더 돋보이게 할 수 있는 자기만의 가치에 중점을 두고 있다는 것을 의미한다.

The emergence of the luxury market has led numerous academic researchers, as well as marketers in the luxury market, to pay attention to both identifying luxury brand features and measuring perceptions toward luxury brands. Especially, Korea is a significant emerging market for luxury goods. Young consumers and male consumers are getting into the luxury market fast and these new segments will keep increasing. There are only a few studies related to distinctive definitions of luxury brands and measurement development for the Korean market. However, there are some limitations in these previous studies in that they did not capture the nature of luxury due to their inappropriate of subjects and approach in data collection and to lack of a perspective of Korean specific features. Thus, the purpose of this research is to identify Korean consumers' perceptions toward luxury products and, ultimately, to develop a reliable and valid measurement items for the luxury products' features for the Korean market. Defining the three high constructs(functional, emotional, and symbolic aspects) as a key needs and benefits on luxury brands, we looked at four stages of development for generating and deducting items by luxury industry experts and luxury consumers, as well as for testing measures by 20th~60th consumers. As a result, this study confirmed that luxury brands consists of high quality, high price, unique design, and luxury store; the emotional aspect construct combines craftsmanship, VIP service, and high social status; and the symbolic construct includes brand heritage and being a well-known brand. Finally, 22 measurement items (Measures of Luxury Brand for Korea: LBK) were developed for the conceptual features for luxury brands from a Korean perspective. This study provided understanding of Korean consumers' perceptions toward luxury brands from an academic perspective. For the managerial implication of this study, LBK can be utilized to judge both luxury brands and mass brands, to diagnose current a brand's luxuriousness, from the customer's point-of-view, and, finally, to measure a Key Performance Index (KPI) of luxury brand companies.
