This paper examines the use of semiotics for analyzing fashion advertisements in the fast fashion industry. While previous studies have explored the use of semiotics in various industries, the application of this theory in the fashion sector-especially regarding fast fashion's commercial videos related to sustainability-remains underexplored. The paper adopts Roland Barthes' Semiotics Theory to analyze the advertising videos related to the sustainability of major fast fashion brands such as H&M, MANGO, and ZARA. The research approach involved reviewing all commercial videos related to sustainability on these brands' official YouTube accounts and conducting comprehensive analyses of advertisements using the binary opposition analysis framework. The paper's findings indicate that these commercial videos serve as a platform to mold a brand's sustainability image and promote the notion that fast fashion brands are leading the charge toward sustainability, preparing for an unpredictable future, guiding people toward hope, and offering ultimate freedom. This research high-lights the necessity for a critical examination of advertising videos related to sustainability in the fast fashion industry to guarantee accountability and transparency.

It's my belief that one of aesthetic engineering approaches such as Semantic Differential Method and semiotic approaches such as the Interpretant Matrix for advertising design images provide basic methods which is about defining the process of constructing and coding the advertising images as well as analyzing and decoding advertising expressions. So I suggest these kinds of studies on the images of web sites as well as advertising design images.

Advertisements in modern era are not intended to be consumed only as commercial purposes, but consumed also as cultural and artistic purposes. Advertising contents' success depends on Semiotic codes revealed in advertising texts. Advertising scholar Ozoh (1998) argued that perspectives for advertising are divided into two perspective, one as marketing tool perspective and the other as communication processes perspective. Advertising planning, advertising management, advertising, and advertising evaluation of marketing perspective are significantly different from those of communication perspective. Two perspectives of advertising present various debates on what contents of advertising messages are and how advertising messages are made up. In this research manuscripts, we discuss story telling as communication tool of advertising text in terms of cultural semiotics. That is, meaning value of goods is so well revealed in use value of goods that they satisfy consumers' needs, we analyze how they satisfy consumers' needs in semiotic(symbolic) process. We apply Gremas's semantic model to coffee advertisements in France and Korea, and analyze various differences between differentiation strategies of French coffee advertisements and those of Korean coffee advertisements in terms of semiotic perspective.

This study explores the relationship between images and texts through advertising production using images and texts, and analyzes the student works with the semiotics of Roland Barth. Since Barth emphasized the interpreter's interpretation rather than the producer's intention in his work, he interpreted the work as a receiver. It was analyzed in terms of socio-cultural meaning of what students produced in the works. A total of 64 classes were held for the first two classes in D high school. The results of analyzing students' works after the advertisement production class are as follows. First, as a result of analyzing Barth 's myth structure model, advertisement image and text are symbols and have meaning. Second, advertising image and text complement each other and have the characteristic of interrelationship that constitutes meaning.

1990년대 후반 이후 등장한 N세대 N generation라는 신조어는 넓게는 '10대 후반과 20대 초반의 새로운 세대'라는 'new'의 개념에서의 N세대 new generation를, 좁게는 '네트워크 network를 자유자재로 다루는 세대' 또는 '네트워크 속에서 생활하는 세대' 라는 '디지털 유저 digital user'의 개념에서의 N세대 network generation를 의미한다. 다시 말해, N세대는 디지털 디바이스의 정보와 지식을 바탕으로 자유롭게 디지털 세상을 넘나드는 젊은 디지털 유저 층이다. 본 연구의 목적은 디지털 디바이스 프로덕트 광고의 한 사례를 기호학적으로 분석하여 '"디지털 디바이스+ N세대=디지털 코드"라는 광고공식'과 '외연과 내연이 합해져 "기술적 시니피앙과 감성적 시니피에"의 상호작용적 조합 interaction'을 찾아보는 것에 있다. 여기서는 광고 분석의 사례로써 삼성 KENOX V4 광고를 이용한다. KENOX V4 는 N세대를 겨냥한 디지털 디바이스 프로덕트이며, 이 광고는 '외국 브랜드를 제압하는 의미의 V'라는 코드를 사용하고 있다. 자기만의 주장을 당당하게 할 줄 아는 N세대가 소년기에 가졌던 한국이라는 자부심이 그가 성인기에 들어선 이후에도 V라는 승리의 표상으로 나타나고 있는 것이다. V4 광고의 이미지는 N세대를 상징하는 강력한 '디지털 코드digital code'를 담아내고 있으며, 그 V4의 메시지는 '4백만 화소'라는 '기술적 시니피앙 technological significant'과 '4가지 승리'라는 '감성적 시니피에 emotional signifie'의 상호작용적 조합을 구성하고 있다.
