초록

The current Metaverse phenomenon, a collective virtual shared space, has drawn attention to Metaverse marketing in the fashion industry. Metaverse fashion marketing refers to the promotion and sale of fashion products and experiences within this virtual environment, which simulates real-world experiences. This study conducted an online survey to identify research problems empirically. The study subjects were surveyed by domestic male and female consumers aged 35.69 on average, and the authors conducted an online survey, reminiscent of the fashion brand's virtual reality store presented in the questionnaire. Three hundred copies of the collected response data were analyzed using the SPSS 28.0 program. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that consumer experience factors in the fashion brand's Metaverse virtual reality store environment significantly impacted the intention to visit the actual store. As a result of the study, it was found that consumers' perceived presence in the fashion brand Metaverse virtual reality store had a significant effect on entertainment, esthetic, educational, and escapism experiences. Consumers' perceived social presence influenced entertainment, esthetic, educational, and escapism experiences but did not affect educational experiences. It was confirmed that the consumer experience factors in a fashion brand's Metaverse virtual reality store environment had a significant effect on the actual store visit intention. Through the results of this study, we contributed to the related research stream by empirically analyzing the impact of various dimensions of the Metaverse fashion experience, which needed to be improved so far, on consumers' actual store visit intention.
