Abstract

The rapid development of information media in the 21th century has given rise to the acceleration of fashion change and its diversification due to individual lifestyle, the personification and differentiation of consumers. This has got away from the function-centeredness of clothing and awakened people to the important task of hi-tech new materials development and design development. We immediately need to develop the measure to cope quickly and properly with changes in the dwindled fabric market. Consumers; needs are personified and diversified and the cycle of fashion materials become curtailed. From this perspective, this study attempted to manufacture the material for capable of satisfying consumers; psychology and needs with the handicraft based on the multi-item and small-quantity production system. This study attempted to present the possibility of differentiating products and developing diverse materials by applying the Woolsmok technique. It is expected that the development of these materials will not simply stay at the level of handicraft but contribute to the competitive materials of creativity and aesthetics by inducing it to be applicable to the industrial world and activate them as differentiated high-grade clothing materials for consumers at home and abroad.
