The fashion industry is considered hazardous and a threatened to the environment. Due the negative perception, the industry should focus on sustainability as a social role. Therefore, several redesign fashion collaborations mainly focusing on renewing abandoned resources are already in place. The research method was based on previous studies, and 3 characteristics were derived: Redesign collaboration between fashion companies, Redesign collaboration between fashion & heterogeneous industries, and Redesign collaboration between the fashion industry & non-profit organizations. Those 3 characteristics were reviewed using 4 criteria. First, to establish and maximize the sustainable brand image and to be the best examples in environmental management, the organization endeavors to collaborate with various industries, institutions, and designers. Second is the expansion of the customer network through the spread of value consumption. Third is the creation of new values through a resource circulation structure. This means that the resource circulation structure system helps the partners to minimize on wastage. Fourth is the spread of de-boundary lines and the possibility of brand growth. Through collaboration with other industries, the boundaries of materials used in the fashion industry started to blur, thus expanding the continuous brand growth potential. The study derived the characteristics of redesign collaboration by systematically analyzing the cases. Further, the study looks forward to analyzing the characteristics of the products processed by redesign fashion collaborations in future research.

The purpose of this study is to examine and categorize the cases of luxury fashion brands and art collaboration and find out their effects. The research method examined the theoretical background of luxury fashion brand and art collaboration and proceeded with content analysis through major cases. The research results were classified into the following two types through case analysis. The first is art collaboration for product design, and the second type is art collaboration for exhibition works. Content analysis according to type was organized from the perspective of brands and artists, respectively, and the resulting collaboration effect was finally derived. The main effects are the integration of design and art, diversification of social and cultural backgrounds, and innovative vision of expression. This study is meaningful in examining the expanded design methods and effects of luxury fashion brands through grafting artworks and presenting basic data for future fashion art collaboration design research.

Recently, global luxury fashion brands such as Gucci, Saint Laurent, and Louis Vuitton have been showing special interest in Korean contemporary artists and actively collaborating with them. This can be said to be a new change that is distinguished from previous collaborations of fashion brands. Therefore, this study investigated the cases of collaboration between global luxury fashion brands and Korean contemporary artists, and analyzed the types and characteristics to examine the trends and characteristics and draw meaning. As a result, fashion brands combine the characteristics of Korean art works of various genres with the brand concept and pursued values to create new sensibility and high value-added products. It can be seen that the intention was to prepare a place to draw out. In addition, it was found that collaboration was also utilized in terms of marketing so that domestic customers could visit the brand store with a sense of familiarity by utilizing Korea's artistic and cultural sentiments. Based on the results of this study, we intend to provide basic data for the development of creative contents for various collaborations between fashion and art that can help develop the modern fashion industry.

This study examines the effects of brand belief of a mass offline retailer on the perceived value, attitude, and purchase intention toward the products of emerging fashion designer brands in the context of marketing collaborations between emerging fashion designer brands and a mass offline retailer. We invited 198 adults aged 20 to 59 to an online survey who were asked to read a news article and respond to a questionnaire. The results of structural equation modeling show that brand belief of a mass offline retailer positively influences the perceived value of the products of emerging fashion designer brands. The perceived value also positively influences the attitude toward the products that subsequently enhances purchase intention. The findings suggest that emerging fashion designer brands should strategically select a mass offline retailer as their collaboration partner by considering consumer perceptions of the retailer brand because the brand belief of the retailer may have a halo effect on a consumer evaluation of the products of emerging fashion designer brands.

끊임없이 발전하는 기술은 4차 산업혁명시대를 열게하는 중심이 되었으며 세상의 모든 것을 변화시켜가고 있다. 최근에는 혁신적이고 고도화된 IT 기술이 완전히 다른 분야와 유기적으로 융합하여 새로운 가치를 만들어 가고 있다. 특히 패션 분야에서는 이와 같은 선도적인 기술을 바탕으로 패션, 그 이상의 기능을 담당하는 '스마트패션'의 시대를 맞이하고 있다. 패션에서의 새로운 산업 분야로 자리매김하고 있는 스마트패션에 대한 사용자의 요구가 증대하고 새로운 제품을 출시하고자 하는 기업의 시도가 계속되고 있으나 학교 현장에서는 이에 대한 적절한 교육과정이 부재한 상태이다. 특히 IT 엔지니어와 패션 디자이너와의 협업의 경험이 전무할뿐만 아니라 제품을 설계하고 제작해 나가는 과정에 대한 개념이 서로 완전히 상이하여 융합의 시도가 단지 시도로 그치고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 IT와 패션 전공 학생들이 함께 참여할 수 있는 융합 교과 과정을 설계함으로써 미래의 산업사회 요구에 선제적으로 대응하고자 한다. 이를 통해 상이한 전공을 가지고 있는 두 전공 학생들에게 타 전공에 대한 지식을 이해할 수 있는 기회를 제공하는 동시에 융합에 대한 경험을 충분히 제공함으로써 미래 시장으로의 선도 진입과 역할 수행의 적합성을 이루어 낼 수 있도록 한다.

Product development and marketing that appeal to consumer emotions are important as shown by a variety of product and service industries that integrate fashion and arts into product design and marketing through collaboration. This study attempted to analyze the patterns in the collaborations of fashion and arts across industry disciplines. A total of 278 collaboration cases reported in news articles were collected from internet databases. Cases were categorized into 5 disciplines of fashion-fashion, arts-arts, fashion-arts, fashion-other industries, and arts-other industries, with each category analyzed in frequency distribution and collaboration type along with related partner and industry characteristics. Collaborations with other industries were observed more than internal ones, and individuals (rather than firms) were more involved in collaborations. Though the collaboration characteristics were different by partner category and sub-category, by individual or firm, and by related industries, a variety of collaborations integrating fashion and arts into product design and development, a new brand launching, product line extension, and co-marketing were observed across product and industry disciplines. The study also described fashion and arts that were integrated into consumer life styles.
