의복은 인간이 삶을 영위함에 있어 필수불가결한 요소인 ‘의식주’의 하나로서 생산 및 유통의 역사는 인간의 역사와 같이한다. 인간의 개성 추구와 더불어 의복은 인간을 외부로부터 보호해 주는 기능적인 면에서 자신을 표출하는 패션적인 면이 더욱 강조되는 경향을 발전하고 있다. 의류부문에서 물류의 기능은 다른 제품과 마찬가지로 제품의 출하되는 원상태로 유지하면서 소비자가 원하는 시간에 원하는 장소에서 인도될 때 완전한 물류서비스를 제공하는 것이 된다.(중략)

본 연구는 한국 거주 외국인을 대상으로 한국 의류의 착용실태 및 착용 시 불편사항, 선호도 등을 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 통해 그 수요가 증가하고 있는 외국인 소비자를 흡수할 수 있는 의류개발에 필요한 기초자료를 얻고자 하였다. 본 연구는 설문지법으로 진행되었으며, 분석에는 SPSS 26.0 프로그램을 사용하였다. 의류 구매장소는 온라인 쇼핑이 가장 많았고, 구매 아이템은 티셔츠, 재킷이 많았다. 가격대는 3만원에서 5만원 사이가 가장 많았다. 구매 이유는 심미적 요인이 높았다. 한국 의류는 어깨부위, 다리길이가 가장 불편하였고, 바지가 가장 맞지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 선호스타일은 캐주얼과 모던 스타일이 많았고, 심플하고 편안한 이미지의 의복을 선호하며, 천연소재를 선호하였다. 조금 여유있는 실루엣의 의복을 선호하고 재킷, 티셔츠 등의 아이템을 선호하였다. 향후 국적, 체형 등에 따른 착의실태 및 선호도에 대한 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to survey the clothing behavior, care and the fiber preferences of multi-cultural families living in Korea. The data was collected using questionnaire surveys based on pre-tests, and a main survey conducted in Seoul, Gyeonggi Province and Chungcheong Province. The 258 participants came from 151 multi-cultural families and 107 Korean families. The results of this study were as follows: First, Filipinos owned more clothes than the Chinese and bought clothes more frequently. The Filipinos spent 10,000~30,000 Korean won on all types of clothing. Each time, the Chinese spent more money when purchasing jackets. Second, when health was the greatest concern for underclothes, they chose cotton fiber as their preferred fiber. When beauty was of greatest concern for blouses they chose cotton. When beauty was of greatest concern for skirts and jackets they chose natural fibers such as silk, wool or linen. Filipinos preferred synthetic fibers because they are easy to care for, and the Chinese preferred natural fibers due to their beauty, especially for pants. Third, multi-cultural families laundered at home using only a washing machine. All fibers were laundered together into the washer without any sorting. This study can contribute to providing basic data for an understanding of the clothing behavior and laundry styles of multi-cultural families which may be useful data in the apparel market in Korea given the relative and direct changes relevant to various clothing cultures.

This study investigated the degree of inconvenience in existing ready-made clothes and clothing preferences through a survey of 197 wheelchair-bound males in order to provide preliminary data for the development of a suit that considers the physical characteristics and requirements of the disabled in wheelchairs for improved quality of living and positive interpersonal relations. Among the survey respondents, the 30s to 40s age group was the largest at 71.6%. The most common type of disability was myelopathy at 72.6%. Also 59.9% of respondents had a job and ongoing external and social activities. As for the duration of wheelchair use, 10-20 years was the longest at 40.6%. It was found from the survey that respondents felt inconvenienced with existing clothes and changing pants was most inconvenient. Most experienced having their clothes altered due to the difficulty in finding well-fitting ones; consequently, the length of pants was the most altered item because pants are based on the size of a standing man and there exists a discrepancy in length due to the atrophy of the legs of the disabled. They preferred one style in general for clothing preferences as well as common design and details as well. However, they preferred a style with a short front and long back due to a discomfort in jacket length. A short length was the most complained about pants item.
