This study was conducted to corroborate the factors that influence consumer characteristics and technology acceptance on online luxury platforms, which are rapidly emerging as distribution channels for luxury brands. To this end, the relationship between the degree of technology acceptance and behavioral intention of fashion consumers on online luxury platforms and the effect on specific factors such as age and gender was investigated to see if there was a difference in behavior and use behavior. A survey was conducted on Korean consumers between the age of 20 and 40 who have used online luxury platforms and then, a statistical analysis was conducted. As a result of the study, performance expectancy and facilitating conditions, hedonic motivation, price value, and habit were found to have a significant effect on platform behavioral intention, but effort expectancy and social influence did not have a significant effect. Additionally, both facilitating conditions and habit were found to have a directly significant effect on the platform use behavior, and it was confirmed that the platform behavior intention also had a significant effect on the use behavior. As a result of confirming the moderating effect of gender and age, there was no difference based on gender, but only the relationship between price value and behavioral intention was found to have a moderating effect. It is hoped that domestic online luxury platforms will grow into channels with distinct characteristics and continue to develop in the luxury market by utilizing specific affect factors of this study.

본 연구는 명품 패션 스타트업 플랫폼인 발란·트렌비·머스트잇 3사를 연구대상으로 선정하여, 각 3사의 온라인 사이트에서 진행하고 있는 마케팅 믹스 전략을 비교, 분석하는데 목적이 있으며, 우리의 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 먼저, 명품 플랫폼 3사의 상품전략은 하이엔드 브랜드부터 SPA 브랜드 까지의 상품구성과 여성복, 남성복 이외에 키즈, 홈리빙 등과 같은 상품구성이 특징이며 이외에도 중고상품, 예술품등 에 이르는 상품군의 다양화가 특징으로 보여진다. 또한, 명품플랫폼의 가격전략은 동일제품이어도 명품 플랫폼에 따라 가격 차이를 보이고 있는데, 이는 3사 플랫폼이 모두 병행수입과 구매대행의 유통구조로 운영하며, 이러한 플랫폼의 유통 운영방식 차이에 따라 플랫폼이 직접 마진을 결정하는 구조로 보여진다. 따라서 각 플랫폼마다 가격 경쟁력의 우위를 확보하기 위해 백화점 등 오프라인 매장에 없는 할인쿠폰, 적립금 등을 통해 오프라인 매장보다 저렴한 명품구매의 기회를 제공하고 있었다. 마지막으로 명품 플랫폼 3사의 판매촉진전략은 가격할인, 할인쿠폰, 상시세일 등의 가격할인 판촉과 회원가입/리뷰 적립금, 이벤트, 상품정보, 배송서비스, 사회공헌활동, SNS활용 등의 가치부가적 판매촉진을 활용하고 있었다.

In addition to direct sales to consumers, the direct-to-consumers (D2C) strategy, which provides specialized experiences and services, communicates closely with a consumer's perspective. This tendency is related to the recent trend wherein the luxury fashion system is being transformed into a new luxury. Therefore, this study analyzes the development of online D2C platforms and investigates the characteristics of new luxury from the functional, symbolic, and experiential dimension perspectives based on mobile apps, which is becoming increasingly important among online D2C platforms. Based on the study results, the premium of new luxury fashion displayed in Louis Vuitton's mobile D2C platform in terms of product utility and functionality is newly defined as a usable luxury experience. Moreover, from the heritage perspective, based on the cultural sympathy of the brand contents, we determine that an attachment can be formed between new luxury fashion consumers and brands. Additionally, the personalization service and experiential content on the D2C platform can directly afford emotional and bonding induced brand immersion in a playful way.

Reselling, an activity of purchasing high-scarcity products and selling them back at high prices, has gained popularity among those in their 20s and 30s in recent years. This study examines the resell activity process of the MZ generation using the online second-hand platform and its inherent meaning. Interviews with 15 participants in their 20s and 30s showed that respondents have four purchase stages: being influenced by social media, collecting and comparing information using various social media, purchasing efforts, and post-purchase behavior. The research derived three inherent meanings of resell activities: (1) means of self-presentation and differentiation, (2) confirmation of investment skills and aptitude to lead fashion trends, and (3) pleasure of consumption. Respondents indicated meeting self-satisfaction through public selfies on social media. In addition, they emphasized the empirical pleasure during the buying journey by collecting product information, comparing prices, and negotiating with buyers. Our findings confirm the spread of resell activities from minority groups to enthusiastic youth. This study is significant for focusing on fashion products that attract attention in the resell market and examining the respondents' consumption experiences from various perspectives.
