남성 수트소재의 시각적 질감 이미지와 선호도

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to clarify the effects of constituent characteristics and the mechanical properties by KES-FB system on the visual texture images and preference of men’s suit fabrics. Twenty different kinds of black fabrics, which were used mainly for the spring and summer men’s suits, were selected and the subjective evaluation of the visual texture images was tested. Sixty experts in department of clothing and apparel industries participated in the subjective evaluation. Factor analysis showed visual texture images were classified into 4 categories：“bulkiness”, “extensibilitydrapability”, “flexibility” and “smoothness”. All of relationships were established between the mechanical properties and the visual texture images except the relation between “flexibility” and bending properties. The significant factors affecting preference were “smoothness”, compression energy(WC), fabric count and “flexibility”, As the fabrics had higher value for “smoothness” and “flexibility”, and lower ones for compression energy and fabric count, they tended to be more preferred.
