This study analyzes the differences in animal expression methods and types of animals, in relation to gender and item based on a collection of children's clothing and accessories that use animal as their theme. The collection consists of 148 clothing and 75 accessories (total of 223 items), which were collected from on-line shopping sites for children's clothes. Analysis results showed the following observations. Animal expression was categorized into four methods: emblem, illustration, character, and pattern.(The most common method was character, followed by pattern, illustration, and emblem. In relation to gender and clothing item, animal expression methods varied widely:(character was the most popular for) boys' t-shirts and accessories, while girls' bottoms and dresses. As for (animal) types, Mammalia was the most common, followed by birds and insects. Dogs and puppies were popular both genders.(However, differences in preferences existed as) boys liked big and wild animals such as bears, tigers, and foxes, while girls liked small and cute animals such as rabbits, cats, owls, and butterflies. Based on these results, six types of animals (rabbits, elephants, large-beaked bird Toco Toucans, fish, penguins, and bees) were selected as themes for kids' vest designs and, among them, three designs were made.

This study investigates the conditions of Korean naval duty and combat uniforms to develop a new design. Survey participants consisted of, 723 Sailors ($25.3{\pm}6.9yr$ in age, $43{\pm}53$ months in work experience, $174{\pm}6cm$ in height, $71{\pm}9kg$ in body mass) serving in the Korean Navy for over 12 months. The questionnaire consisted of 72 questions about anthropometric characteristics, preferred design, textiles, wear mobility, and subjective perceptions. The results showed that the preferred colors for future naval duty uniforms were blue in summer (69%) and black in winter (62%). Digital camouflage pattern (60%) and darker colors on the inside of shirt collar (87%) and the edge of sleeves (84%) were preferred. They favored more than one pocket on the upper arm and chest of the shirts (58%), narrower width around pant legs and hems than the current clothing (63%), self-controlled elastic waist (55%) and no cargo type pocket on the pants (45%). There were requirements to alleviate excessive heat stress in summer and to protect from the cold and wind in winter. Wrinkle-free (85%), anti-bacterial (78%), water-proof (75%), oil-proof (90%), and elastic (67%) textiles were preferred for Korean navy uniforms. These results will be applied to develop the next generation Korean navy uniforms.

The purpose of this study was to develop the construction process of orthopedic compression garments (OCG) for balancing of the left and right lumbar muscle power and strength to prevent low back pain. One male subject having low back pain was involved for investigating of the lumbar muscle power. EMG (Telemyo DTS2, Noraxon, U.S.A) was measured with/ without 3 types of waist assistant belt around the waist area of the subject. Based on the electromyogram value of left and right body, OCG were constructed as follows. Firstly, stretchable t-shirts type with supportive waist belt was selected for the convenience of wearing and laundering the OCG. The design lines of the front and back waist parts were created depending on the anatomy of the torso. Secondly, 3D pattern was developed using 3D Clo, RapidForm XOR, 2C-AN, and Yuka CAD program to increase the fit of the OCG. Finally, stretchable power-net was layered as linings in two ways, a single lining and double layered linings, and evaluated measuring lumbar muscle EMG by five subjects with low back pain. As the results, they were effective to balance the left and right lumbar muscle power and strength. Also the OCG with the double layered power-net lining was superior to the one layered lining in terms of fit and comfort.

This study has the purpose to find basic materials for development of kindergarten's uniform and suggest the improvement of its design based on the survey results from Suncheon area in Jeollanam-do of Korea. Such study methods were conducted as literature review, survey with direct visit, interview, and photographing of dresses regarding the kindergarten uniform. The following are research results. First, kindergarten teachers presented a positive opinion about the necessity for children to wear the uniform. In selection of design, they regarded the activity as most important factor. Kindergartens applying active wear compatible as townwear also accounted for 57.1%, which is more than half. Second, the formal wear, in the winter season was found to consist with jacket or knit cardigan, knit vest, shirts, skirts or pants, and necktie. For color, most of them are in dark tone, which need to be brighter. For pattern, they are in plain color, which needs to have various patterns. As to the cloth material, such problems should be improved as warmth retentivity in consideration of seasonal nature, moisture retentivity, breathability, color retentivity when washing, and harmless to human body. Third, active wear is mostly the casual sportswear type. But it has no characteristic unique to kindergarten in design and needs to be altered for differentiated design. Especially, it is simply divided into winter wear and summer wear in kind. Therefore, it is required to have differentiation for seasonal characteristic and diversity in number of item and improvement in terms of cloth material.

Bulgaria is agriculture-oriented society based on a continental climate. Accordingly, as for the classification of costumes, body-fit clothes, such as shirts and jackets which developed in Europe and fit the body shape, have featured in Bulgaria. Besides, Bulgaria was under the rule of Turk for a long time at the end of the Middle Age. Having been influenced a lot those days, its folk costume shows Turkish elements now. With geographical features, it was found that the southern area was influenced most by Turkey and Greece, and the types of folk costumes in Europe developed mainly from the northern area. The adaptation of traditional costume forms to the new cultural and progressive principles of appeal nowadays needs knowledge, as well as feeling. Finding the right measure and proportions of using old ethnic elemints in contemporary clothing is the prerequisite of successful design.

본 연구에서는 남자 중학생을 대상으로 1) 티셔츠 단독무늬에서 어떤 감성을 느끼는지 알아보고, 2)선호하는 티셔츠가 무엇이며 그 특징은 무엇인지 알아보았다. 또, 3) 성격에 따라 티셔츠 단독무늬에서 느끼는 감성차이가 있는지에 대해 알아보았다. 본 연구의 연구문제를 실증적으로 조사하기 위하여 설문지법을 이용하였다. 설문지의 구성은 3부분으로 구성하여 1부에서는 MBTI를 이용한 성격유형에 관한 측정문항 2부에서는 의복행동에 관한 측정 문항 3부에서는 티셔츠 단독무늬에 대한 감성 측정 문항이 포함되었다. 본 연구는 인천 지역에 사는 중학생 380명을 대상으로 설문조사에 의해 진행 통계분석은 SPSS 10.0을 이용하여 t test와 분산분석, 대응분석 등으로 분석하였다. 이 중 무성의한 설문지를 제외한 총 331부를 자료 분석에 사용하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 남자 중학생들이 선호하는 단독무늬는 인공물을 소재로 한 사실적인 모티브로 주변에서 쉽게 접할 수 있는 친근한 소재를 활용한 무늬였다. 반대로 친근하지 않은 소재나 이해하기 어려운 단독무늬는 선호하지 않는 것으로 조사되었다. 둘째, 단독무늬에 대한 감성은 성격유형에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 외향형인 학생들은 감성에 대해 극적으로 대답하는 반면, 내향형인 학생들은 중간값에 가깝게 대답하는 성향이 강하게 나타났고, 감각형/직관형에서의 감성차이는 모든 단독무늬에서 직관형 학생들의 선호도가 높게 나타났다. 사고형/감성형에서 나타난 특징은 특정감성이 두 성격유형 모두에서 높게 나타난 경우 항상 사고형 학생집단에서 더 높게 평가하고 있다는 것이다. 판단형/인식형에서는 감성에 따라 의미있는 차이가 가장 많이 나타난 것이 특징이다. 이 결과는 단독무늬에서 느끼는 감성차이가 판단형과 인식형에서 가장 크다는 것을 의미한다.
