  • This article surveys the meaning and history of fashion museum exhibitions to understand the characteristics that make a fashion museum exhibition special. It explores dress museology and fashion museology in theory, and practice across a range of international case studies that include the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, Mode Museum in Antwerp, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. In particular, it examines how curatorial intervention has developed the interpretation and display techniques of dress within the context of the museum or gallery as well as how fashion has made museums accessible to diverse audiences. For a specific case study, we review the types and roles of fashion exhibitions organized by the Simone Handbag Museum, Seoul. It is the first handbag-centered fashion museum in the world as well as one of the most representative local fashion museums. The museum collection includes fashionable western handbags from rare specimens of the $15^{th}$ century to the latest bags of the $21^{st}$ century, and presents a history of changing fashion cycles and the major socio-cultural shifts that have profoundly affected women's lives in public spaces. Exhibitions show the perspective to a range of curatorial methodologies and show the innovative approaches towards collections and displays with broader fashion issues such as gender, materialism and technology. The article is to help encourage further scholar discourse between fashion museum exhibitions and fashion museology.

  • These days, fashion museums that were established during the 60~70s in advanced countries are spiritedly planning opportune exhibitions as well as opening collections and accumulated research materials to the public. They are also publishing innovative visual references and offering various educational programs. They play a crucial role in speeding up the development of creativity of fashion designers by accumulating archives through analytic researches. Since Korea has applied western fashion for over a century, now is the time to make a fundamental long-term plan for establishing the identity of Korean fashion by gathering and classifying the history of a century. Thus, the aim of this study is to reach a conclusion to construct fashion museum in Korea to discover as well as develop fashion talents and eventually enhancing national competitiveness. First, the theoretical study on the history and the functions of fashion museum were analysed. 'The collection & exhibition' in the common thread is one function of the fashion museum. Another function is 'the research', which includes accumulations, classification and record of materials in a particular point of view. It also includes publishing catalogues with temporary exhibitions and open management to the scholars and the designers.

  • This study investigated the current statuses of and challenges faced by 19 textile and fashion museums in Seoul and Daegu. Through interviews conducted via email, phone, and face-to-face meetings with museum officials, this research analyzed the prevalent difficulties encountered by the museums based on the concept of the new museum. The results indicate that domestic museums experience different difficulties depending on operating organization rather than collection or exhibition content. This is related to the distribution of museums by operating institutions, as most textile craft museums are private establishments, and, the majority of dress and fashion museums are university-affiliated institutions. Accordingly, this study explored the major problems confronting textile craft, dress and fashion, and accessory museums with a consideration for operating institutions. It proposes improvements in domestic textile and fashion museums through a comparative analysis with overseas museums as new museums.

  • Lighting in a fashion shop has an effect on customers, highlights the products on the shelf, and has become more important. Even though lighting has a significant effect on customers, the studies on fashion shop lighting have primarily focused on how to create lighting which can influence customers' purchase behavior, and their awareness and expectation.

Through such processes, the possibility of applying fashion store display lighting environments was investigated. Finally, for the assessment of museum exhibitions lighting applying fashion store display lighting environments, a subjective evaluation method using light simulation was proposed.

  • Fashion exhibitions in museums are an important media to deliver ideas of fashion. Although it still arouses controversy, museums have become an ideal platform for fashion exhibitions since some fashion exhibitions have garnered successful results in mega museums. This can be considered as a cultural phenomenon and a new paradigm since fashion exhibitions in museums are closely related to new museums and fashion museology. Thus, this study examines the definition of 'fashion exhibitions in museums' based on new museums and fashion museology, and then lays the groundwork for its typology through an analysis of preceding research about fashion exhibitions from the 1970s to the present day. In consequence, fashion exhibitions in museums are categorized into five types; retrospective exhibition, survey exhibition, fashion photography and film exhibition, and consider both virtual exhibitions and fashion brand exhibitions.
