의복 절개선을 활용한 생성형 AI 패션디자인 프로세스 개발

Abstract

The use of generative AI in the fashion industry spans various areas, including idea generation, trend analysis, and virtual garment creation. Generative AI is driving innovation in visual fields where creativity is highly valued. In fashion design, AI contributes to enhancing both the creativity and productivity of fashion designers. However, its active adoption depends on how well it aligns with the roles and needs of designers. The purpose of this study was to propose an AI design process that could enable AI to execute design tasks in which fashion designers would develop new designs by modifying cut lines. To establish a collaborative process between designers and AI, an AI-driven fashion design process was developed. Three types of AI-generated fashion designs incorporating cut lines were created using Midjourney. Findings of this study are as follows. First, an AI fashion design process was developed by restructuring competency units of fashion designers in the fashion industry. This process can facilitate the development of unique fashion designs. Second, to integrate design techniques used by fashion designers into AI, various types of prompts are required to effectively communicate the designer’s creative direction to AI. Third, a design derivation process was developed in collaboration with an AI designer capable of utilizing cut-line elements. This resulted in the creation of three types of AI shirt designs. Future research is needed to further refine AI-driven processes and techniques, enabling fashion designers to incorporate AI technology into their overall workflow and actual garment production.
