The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about environmental severity and new social, economic, and cultural changes. Conscious fashion, which is oriented to sustainable and valuable consumption, has become a trend to consume products produced using eco-friendly and ethical processes, from the selection of the product materials to the manufacturing process. The purpose of this study is to identify the concepts and characteristics of conscious fashion and zero waste, and to explore design trends of zero wastein the new normal era of conscious fashion through the analysis of various cases. The research method is a literature review on conscious fashion based on relevant professional and academic books and articles, designer collections, and campaigns from 2010 to the present, when conscious fashion as eco-friendliness and sustainable fashion became a trend. The concept and characteristics of conscious fashion were examined them in terms of environmental, ethical, social, and cultural aspects and the concept and characteristics of zero waste through previous studies and case analysis. Through this, the trends of zero-waste design in conscious fashion were categorized into: first, an eco-friendly design orientation that utilizes reuse and reduce methods of clothing and fabric; second, a variable design orientation that practices zero waste designs by using diversity of patterns through deconstruction, disassembly, and various cutting methods. Third, long-term circulation of design through the recycling of resources by second-hand trade, the utilization of stock clothing, resale, and availability of eco-friendly materials through the development of new technologies. As an active practice for the sustainable fashion industry expands, it is expected that continuous research will be conducted as a future core value to realize the possibility of long-term circular zero-waste design through social responsibility and conscious recycling, reuse, and reproduction.

This research aims at the development of Korean fashion design for the world market, which combines the western beauty and Korean tradition into the product design focusing on the styling concept. Through the example-analysis of structural elements which form Europe and Korean fashions, the styling concepts of functional change, beauty-combination, and tradition-conservation. are derived. The results are as follows : 1. Functionality needs to be improved by the structural change and the development of new materials from the traditional materials. 2. Beauty should come from the combination of natural patterns and western-spatial allocation, as well as from the front combination of western-beauty. 3. Tradition needs to be kept as Korean beauty and representation skills in the colors, accessaries, and in the spatial design. The styling concept for Korean fashion design in this research is related to the visual structural elements, and is not expanded to the styling concept of Korean image and/or feeling. Therefore future researches may follow on these un-expanded points. and also may continue the wide comparison between the Korean fashion design and oriental image fashion in Europe.

Since the beginning of the 20th century, the art has developed its artistic qualities in exercising an influence on the creative elements of the fashion. In this sense, the fashion is one of many methods of which given time's arts, their compositions, and elements can be expressed, recognized, and experienced. In this study, artworks of Roy Lichtenstein, who took the leading, active role of pop artist have been studied. The purpose of this study is to present practical application of the art and aesthetic and artistic application of clothing by studying and applying the factors of Roy's paintings. The conclusion through actual designing is as follows: First, Lichtenstein interested with the characteristic of print media. He combined the image of commercial technique with the traditional painting by using Ben-day dots. Second, he reduces his form and color to the simplest possible elements. Third, by applying Lichtenstein's works to fashion design, we can make creative and aesthetic fashion works. Fourth, his Ben-day dots and stripe was applied to variant dots and stripe pattern in the fashion design. Roy Lichtenstein is expected to continually affect modern fashion and also fashion of the future. Furthermore Lichtenstein's works are expected to be further studied under various methods and ways, and those aesthetic characteristics would be developed and expressed more in fashion design under various perspectives.

Image-generated AI is rapidly emerging as a powerful tool to augment human creativity and transform the art and design process through deep learning capabilities. The purpose of this study was to propose and demonstrate the feasibility of a new design development method that combined traditional design methods and technology by constructing image-generated AI prompts based on artists' formative elements. The study methodology consisted of analyzing Kazmir Malevich's theoretical considerations and applying them to AI prompts for design, print pattern development, and 3D digital design. This study found that the suprematist works of Kazmir Malevich were suitable as design and print pattern prompts due to their clear geometric shapes, colors, and spatial arrangement. The AI-prompted designs and print patterns produced diverse results quickly and enabled an efficient design process compared to traditional methods, although additional refinement was required to perfect the details. The AI-generated designs were successfully produced as 3D garments, thereby demonstrating that AI technology could significantly contribute to fashion design through its integration with artistic principles. This study has academic significance in that it proposes a prompt composition method applicable to fashion design by combining AI and artistic elements. It also has industrial significance in that it contributes to design innovation and the implementation of creative ideas by presenting an AI-based design process that can be practically applied.

Among the various decorative techniques in fashion design, this study is to study the decorative effect of the aesthetic finishing technique on fabric. Despite the recent expansion of the use of decorative techniques by aesthetic finishing of fabrics, most of the studies have focused on one or partial techniques, and there has been no part on the use of broad techniques or the application of overall design. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to collect the expression techniques of aesthetic finishing and its fashion cases that have been sporadically performed by examining the decorative techniques of fabric aesthetic finishing as a whole, and to provide practical data, help design thinking, and further contribute to the development of higher value-added products. To this end, this study was conducted in parallel with theoretical consideration and empirical research. First, through the analysis of decorative images and fashion cases examined based on theoretical considerations, six creative costumes were planned and produced by reorganizing them according to the flow of modern fashion using a design concept. As a result, it was confirmed that each aesthetic finishing technique is an effective decorative technique that is applied and harmonized to a part or all of the costume to create a new and unique surface effect and formative beauty, and to increase strong visual effects and luxury. Therefore, through this study, it is expected that it will help satisfy the aesthetic sense of consumers seeking high-end and individualization in the future. Therefore, in future research, it is necessary to expand and deal with the aesthetic finishing of fabrics in more depth, and it is expected that multifaceted research and development will continue.
