우리는 현재 빅데이터 시대를 살아가고 있다. 특히 빅데이터를 기반으로 살아가는 여성소비자와 현대 소비특성이 큰 화제가 되고 있다. 여성소비자는 남성과 대비되는 소비자로서 한 사회의 소비문화에 점점 더 많은 영향력을 미치고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 진화되어지는 정보로부터 빅데이터 기술의 사용으로 여성소비자특성을 사례를 통하여 분석하고자 한다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 빅데이터를 활용한 여성소비자의 현황을 살펴보면 20대 미혼 여성들은 다른 계층에 비해 경제 활동 인구 비율이 높게 나타나고 있어 기혼 여성에 비해 가처분 소득이 높음은 물론 적극적인 소비행동을 보이고 있다. 둘째, 여성소비자의 의.식생활의 특성을 살펴보면, 의생활에서 대부분 20대에서 유행과 연예인을 따라하는 것에 높은 비중을 보인다. 셋째, 빅데이터를 활용한 국내 사례(SD 온라인 버즈 마케팅, C.S.I. 신세계몰 프로젝트, 신한카드의 여성소비자의 맞춤형 서비스센터, 롯데관광의 맞춤형 여행 서비스)와 국외사례(타겟의 빅데이터 서비스, ZARA의 빅데이터 서비스, Walmart의 빅데이터 서비스)를 분석해 보면, 여성소비자의 니즈의 실시간 분석이 가능해짐에 따라, 빅데이터 활용에 따른 재 구매율을 높이고, 새로운 여성 소비자가 창출되었다는 것이다.
