The outcomes of study are as follows: 1) The intellectual impression formation was influenced by face, clothing style, and textile pattern, but clothing style and textile pattern were more influential than face. When the models with intellectual face were in intellectual clothing style, they gave more additional intellectual impression. And when intellectual clothing was in single color, it conveyed more intellectual impression. Hair style had no main effect but it influenced on the impression formation through interaction with other variables. 2) There were differences in the formation of the intellectual impressions between the case the appearance was partially percepted and the cast wholely percepted. The case of full-lenth presentation was more influential than that of upper-half presentation.

A New Perspective on style and its change in the historical Methodology on Dress
Journal of the Korean Society of Costume, volume 5, issue 20, 1993, Pages 63~63
The concept of style provides a useful structure in history of Art. In aspect of formative art, dress and art work are alike, so style is a useful concept in the historical methodology on dress. The main purpose of this study was to apply the art criticism to the historical methodology on dress. For this purpose, documentary studies about style as a tool of historical research were proceeded. The results were as follows : 1. The concept of style consists of the external form and the internal meaning as double roots. Therefore, it''''s indispensable that the two aspects of style, form and meaning, must to be harmonized to describe the historical phenomena in dress. 2. The change pattern of style jin dress is not always predeterminate and regular according to the cyclical theory. From the alternative point of view, the change pattern of style could be to describe the continuous theory proposed by kroeber, Brodsky. The whole change of style is considered "liked solution" by this theory.

A Study on the clothes of Shamanistic Ritual (I)
Journal of the Korean Society of Costume, volume 5, issue 20, 1993, Pages 83~83
Signifying clothes can be defined as a process in which a clothes obtains a symbolic meaning by confining its use and purpose. In this paper we catagorize the process of signifying clothes that appears in the Byongkut as follows : first removing the clothes, secondly putting on the clothes, and thirdly burning off the clothes. Removing the clothes is a process of dramatic realization and clearly shows proven facts about the things that will occur in the process. Putting on the clothes is a process of falsified expression in which the interest is transferred from the person who wears the clothes to the clothes itself by the shaman''''s insinuation who leads an interpretation about the clothes. Burning off the clothes is a proves of mystification in which the end of Byongkut is sublimated mistiriously by making the participants believe with the burning that the clothes and the diseases have been curred, and therefore, the ritual is kept from spoiling. The clothes used in Byongkut that religious belief and belied system are expressed through behavior style, and that supernatural power is designed to reveal is related with the various aspects of symbolic life indicated by the clothes.
A Study on the symbol of the Korean Break Eui
Journal of the Korean Society of Costume, volume 5, issue 20, 1993, Pages 93~93
The purpose of this study is to clarify the adaptation f traditional beauty of dress in Baek Eui for the establishment of tradition of dress culture. Especially, the color of the traditional dress represent a symbol which is connected with the national character and the environment. But it is hard to examine closely because color preference are transformed with the times. This study is framed within the limits of the next themes : the philosophical theory of the next themes: the origin, history and meaning of the Baek Eui ; the philosophical theory of cosmic Five Element and the Prohibition of Baek Eui ; the beauty of Baek Eui. As the national character is indicative of the conservativeness and the purity, Koreans have kept up wearing Baek Eui in spite of the occasional prohibition. Since the color of the dress representatived the signs of the social class and the power, over the eighty persent of the common people put on the Baek Eui ; ramie and flax fabrics that has it''''s own color in Chosun-Dynasty. I think that the use of natural color harmony is prominent and the beauty of Baek Eui is the naturality and the non-artificiality. The meaning of the symbol on the Korean Beak Eui is the divinity, the holiness, the purity, the cleanliness, the modesty, the frugality, the integrity, the constancy, the elegance, the simplicity.

A study of Movement on Modern Fashion
Journal of the Korean Society of Costume, volume 5, issue 20, 1993, Pages 125~125
The purposes of this research are firstly to define the characteristics of movement on the costume, secondly to demonstrate that fine art, expecially in relation to kinetic art, has become a good motif in modern costume design, and thirdly to examin in characteristics of movement as shown in modern costume design. For this study, we selected and analyzed some costume designs among those introdued in fashion magazines, which are Collections, Fashion-Preview, Fashion Show, Collezioni, and L''''Officiel that have been issues since 1988. As this research is carried out only through the analysis of pictures, it is not accompanied by a study on material itself. The result of this study is that the expression of movement on modern fashion can be shown in two ways, one is the inclusive and subordinate movement expressed on the clothing according to the motion of body when they are worn, and the other is the movement caused by the very designs of clothing. And the latter can be also divided in two ways, the illusionistic movement and the actual movement. The expression of actual movement is made through the emphasis of direction, rhythm, and dimension on the costume. And the illusionistic movement is expressed by the design to which the textile pattern or reflection of light is applied so that the movement is larger than the actual movement. A sense of direction expressed on the costume by the actual movement creates a light rhythm and adds interest to the costume. This reflects a part of psychology of modern men who are not accustomed to the statics. In the rapidly changing society of information our modern men seek after movement even in the statics. It is also true in the clothing and they seem to get a psychological rest through the immediate visual change as shown in fashion design. The simple and cheerful rhythm expressed by the illusionistic movement on the costume is attempted in order to overcome the static tediousness caused by simple design. These elements of movement cause the enlargement of visible range and create another enlarged shape other than the real one, so that they come to remove the dullness and monotony in costume design and provoke interest in costume, as if kinetic art reveals the various aspects that transcend the closed area of fine art upon the motif of ''''movement''''. Finally, as this paper deals with the expression of movement as shown in the costume design which prevailed after 1988, it is desirable hereafter to study more about the fashion since 1950 when kinetic art began in earnest, along with the comparative study on the expression of movement in our Korean designer''''s and foreign designer''''s works.
A Study on sonia Delaunay's Paintings and fashion
Journal of the Korean Society of Costume, volume 5, issue 20, 1993, Pages 137~137
Sonia Delaunay''''s was among the group of avant-garde artists drawn to Paris in the early part of this century who were exploring concepts of art that were felt to capture best the speed and me chanization of the modern world. She believed modernity-and her own attitude toward modern life-could be expressed through the primacy of color in art and the dynamic inter-play of its dissonances and harmonies. The metaphysical implications delauny felt inherent in this idea made it applicable to all surfaces, and she was compelled to transform the world around her according to it. She set up s dialogue between fine art and everyday objects and accomplished the transition from representation work to her color theory through her investigation in embroidery and collage. This study is for Sonia delaunay''''s field of work which is close to fine and applied arts. To study Sonia Delaunay''''s work, I can field some points of her fashion designs. First, Simultaneous, which is to use collage techenics such as simultaneous and meterial to combinate of variety meterial Seound, durability which is restoration of modern fashion. Eventhough her work is 60 years old still it is forward to the future. Imitation of textile which is developed by her, always looks new and fresh. Third, The elements of Folklore. Her elements of Russia, it appears on variety colors. Sepecially contemporary clothes has elements of folklore, we should use it and made it to suituble to contemporary fashion of our country. For the future, we need study how to apply pictorial meterial of art into fashion design.

(1-2)The price setting process depends highly on the cost-plus approach. (1-3)In color planning, too many colors are used in every season (the average number is 22.3) and the investigation of the consumers'''' favorite color is neglected. (1-4)The manufacturers of successful brands are much likely to employ the textile designer and allow them to develop the various fabrication. (1-5)The regular rate of sales in each season is extremely low(56.04%) : the rate of the successful brands is relatively high at 65%, but that of the unsuccessful as low as 515. (1-6)47% of brands reveal the designer-oriented fashion merchandising system. The successful brands, on the other hand, show a high rate of merchandiser oriented system. (2)Since the brand positioning is highly centered on each brand image, styles and target age, the new data are presented in this study for the new market development. (3)To set up the target market, the mapping of images between the differentiated market and the consumers is suggested according to the market positioning of industry and 15 types of the life-styles of consumers.

A Study on Elsa Schiaparelli's Work(II)
Journal of the Korean Society of Costume, volume 5, issue 20, 1993, Pages 179~179
In the history of fashion, few designers have interpreted the background of the time more accurately and energetically than did Elsa Schiaparelli. She understood the new role of women and believed clothes should suit one''''s life style. Schiaparelli begun with sportswear, later included suits and dresses. She produced them of great elegance and extreme chic. Simplicity of line was the key to her distinctive and elegant silhouette. Even her simplest designs had elegance. Her concept of clothes was architectual : the more the plane of the body were respected, the more the garment acquired vitality. Schiaparelli combined her knowledge, timing, and sense of daring in the presentation of her designs, colors, fabrics, and embroideries. For V, the garment was not only the medium for the couturier''''s craft but also the place for artistic expression. Her self-conscious equation of designer''''s objectives with that of artist is at the heart of her work. Schiaparelli''''s work is an expression of desire, not merely of design.
