This study aims to confirm which factors related to technology acceptance affect generation MZ's use of luxury fashion platforms. For this purpose, Internet self-efficacy and technology readiness were added as new exogenous and moderating variables using extended UTAUT. Then, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating condition as a factor of UTAUT were set as mediating factors. Response data were collected through questionnaires for generation MZ with experience in using luxury fashion platforms, and a factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and path analysis were conducted using the SPSS and AMOS statistical programs. According to the results, the Internet self-efficacy of generation MZ significantly affected on performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions on the luxury fashion platform. Moreover, performance expectancy and social influence had a significant effect on the use intention of luxury fashion platforms, but effort expectancy and facilitating condition did not have a significant effect on use intention and use behavior. Additionally, as the moderating effect of technology readiness affects only the relationship between social influence and behavioral intention, it was confirmed that social influence is an important variable with the characteristics of MZ consumers. Therefore, it is deemed necessary to recognize the importance of social influence when trying to use new technologies targeting generation MZ in the fashion industry.

Unlike the past, when fashion brands adopted unilateral communication with their consumers, the brands today have recognized the importance of bi-lateral communication. This has led to the companies producing fashion films as a means to elicit a consensus in opinion between the brands and the consumers. Such fashion films should be understood as films using fashion that transcends time, and also as a type of fashion media. This study, which is based upon the understanding that fashion films are a part of strategic marketing for enhancing the value of brands, used domestic and international literature in order to define fashion films, and establish a theoretical basis for these films. Corroborative study was also conducted for the purpose of practical categorization. This study aims to investigate the characteristics of fashion films, and to suggest a new approach to the study of fashion films. The study adopted the research methodology used in Dudley Andrew's film theory in order to create a theoretical frame that can be used to categorize fashion films. The theory is of significance because it is the basis for the category of motion picture fashion film and media technology fashion film. The study on the categorization and the characteristics of fashion films based upon 6 sub-categories shows a consistent trend of fashion films. From the results, it can be inferred that the films contribute, in part, to the enhancement of brand value. Fashion films have shown rapid growth with the mixture of other media, and with the introduction of cutting-edge technology. Fashion films can be used as new marketing methods for the fashion brands in this digital age.

Shared fashion rental service has attracted as a solution to environmental problems not only when clothes are incinerated but also in manufacturing process, but there is a lack of precedent research. Therefore, this study is meaningful in that it has developed two development plans based on the results of analysis of service case based on three factors by Rachel Botsman. First, active community development. Second, it is the creation of goods through activation of the shared economy. In this study, there are limitations that can't be proved through actual application, so more research is needed through empirical studies on actual users in the future.

Existing fashion web sites show only the search results for one type of clothes in items such as tops and bottoms. As the fashion market grows, consumers are demanding a platform to find a variety of fashion information. To solve this problem, we devised the idea of linking image classification through deep learning with a website and integrating SNS functions. User uploads their own image to the web site and uses the deep learning server to identify, classify and store the image's characteristics. Users can use the stored information to search for the images in various combinations. In addition, communication between users can be actively performed through the SNS function. Through this, the plan to solve the problem of existing fashion-related sites was prepared.

This study aims to investigate Korean fashion-related research trends and knowledge structures on digital transformation through information-based approaches. Accordingly, we first identified the current status of the relevant research in Korean academic literature by year and journal; subsequently, we derived key research topics through network analysis, and then analyzed major research trends and knowledge structures by time. From 2010 to 2020, we collected 159 studies published on Korean academic platforms, cleansed data through Python 3.7, and measured centrality and network implementation through NodeXL 1.0.1. The results are as follows: first, related research has been actively conducted since 2016, mainly concentrated in clothing and art areas. Second, the online platform, AR/VR, appeared as the most frequently mentioned topic, and consumer psychological analysis, marketing strategy suggestion, and case analysis were used as the main research methods. Through clustering, major research contents for each sub-major of clothing were derived. Third, major subject by period was considered, which has, over time, changed from consumer-centered research to strategy suggestion, and design development research of platforms or services. This study contributes to enhancing insight into the fashion field on digital transformation, and can be used as a basic research to design research on related topics.

최근 모바일 환경의 발달은 손안의 쇼핑을 완벽히 구현하고 있다. 특히, SNS 및 패션커머스의 발전으로 소비자는 자신이 원하는 의류를 간편하게 구매할 수 있다. 하지만, 모델 착용샷, 설명, 사진 및 댓글 등을 통해 판단하고 구입하기 때문에, 의류 특성상 직접 입어보고 판단해야 하는 실 소비자는 만족도가 떨어지고 판매자 입장에서는 반품이 증가하는 현상이 나타나고 있다. 본 논문에서는 소비자의 만족도를 최대한 높일 수 있는 2가지 요소를 감안한 모바일 쇼핑몰을 소개하고자 한다. 첫째, 소비자 체형과 유사한 모델 착용샷을 제공함으로써 구매 당시 소비자의 구매 만족도를 높인다. 둘째, 의류를 구매한 소비자가 자신이 착용한 사진을 쇼핑몰에 올림으로써 모델로써 활동할 수 있는 기능을 제공함으로써 커머스 SNS가 구축되도록 유도한다. 이를 위해 착용샷을 올리는 회원들을 위한 수수료 구조를 효율화하고 판매사, 소비자, 모델들이 활동하는 플랫폼을 구성한다.
