Full textAbstract:
Thesis (BTech (Fashion Design))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2010Children grow at fast rates. Due to this fact, parents constantly need to purchase new clothes as children out grow their clothes before it becomes fully worn. Parents spend thousands each year on children's clothing only to have them disposed of before it has reached its maximum wear ability. The purpose of this research is to analyse children's growth pattems and investigate means of increasing the lifespan! wear ability of children's clothing. The practise of increasing the lifespan! wear ability of clothing lends itself to the Sustainable Design paradigm that encourages designers to create products (garments) with longer lifecycles and discourages waste at every stage of the products lifespan. The process of "tossing out" clothes or not wearing it to its maximum utilization creates waste and fuels mass consumption.As a result masses of clothing end up in landfills and due to its mainly synthetic nature, it causes harm to the environment. By incorporating innovative design and construction techniques I aim to explore methods of adjusting garments according to the growth experienced by children annually. This will allow children to wear the garments for a longer period eliminating the need for parents to purchase new clothing when the clothes no longer fit.

Full textAbstract:
The purposes of this study were to examine the effects of socialization processes and antecedent variables on children's evaluative criteria for clothing purchases and to examine antecedent variables on the socialization process. A total of 500 parents of children from the first through sixth grade were systematically selected from the Directory of Catalina Foothills School District and mailed a questionnaire. Using principal components factor analysis on parental socialization variables and on evaluative criteria items, nine factors were developed. Based on stepwise multiple regression analysis for each hypothesis, it was concluded that antecedent variables have direct influence on socialization process variables which, in turn, impacts the outcome variables. Antecedent variables, however, tended to have limited direct influence on outcome variables but have an indirect effect on outcome variables only through socialization variables.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This research focused on the need of the children’s wear industry in South Africa for sizing systems based on accurate and current body measurement tables developed from the actual measurements of children. The broad objective of this study was to develop standardised measuring methodologies and techniques which would be relevant to the subsequent development of reliable, accurate and comprehensive body measurement tables. These tables could then be implemented as a basis for the development of new sizing systems, as well as new, improved and authentic fit dummy ranges. The literature study served as a point of departure for the planning and execution of the empirical study, focusing on sizing and size designation systems. The study population comprised children representative of three categories, namely age (2 to 14 years), gender (boys and girls) and sector (Black and Non-Black) categories. A convenience sample was selected, representing children from two geographical areas (Western Cape and Gauteng). The empirical study has a three phase structure. The first pilot study aimed at developing standardised measuring equipment, as well as the methodologies and properly recorded guidelines for their implementation. The specific standards according to which subjects were measured and the strict quality control measures implemented to ensure the validity, reliability and accuracy of recorded data, were confirmed during the second pilot study. Based on this, the final study was executed following the guidelines as recorded in the Field Worker Manual. The statistical analysis was done after data capturing during which the data sets were first cleaned up. Secondly, the key measurements for use as a basis for the development of the sizing systems were identified. Based on these, body measurement tables were compiled and age of gender split and growth patterns were analysed for fit dummy prototype development. The new size designation system developed for children’s clothing was successfully implemented as a multi-indicator system, linking height ranges with both age ranges and numerical size indicators. The development of the subsequent new and improved fit dummy prototypes was based on measurements within minimum and maximum values of the body measurements, in order to facilitate the construction of these three-dimensional bodies. It was also possible to develop complete body measurement tables with accurate, and notably irregular, increments between sizes as well as to determine specific growth patterns and separate growth spurts for both boys and girls. This study made new and original as well as more detailed and correct information available concerning the size and shape of the typical South African children’s wear consumer. Using the information contained in the new height based sizing system, retailers have been able to develop a proper set of grade rules for application in product development. The identification and demarcation of important body landmarks facilitated pattern drafting, garment development and fit assessments, resulting in an improved product offering for the typical South African children’s wear consumer. Recommendations regarding further research were formulated, such as comparing the study population categories, namely gender, age and sector. Implications for retailers, inter alia that each retail company could choose how to implement the new height based sizing system and the specific size designation system most suitably for their own consumers and internal systems. The standards set and methodologies implemented in this survey were an improvement on the sizing and fit of children’s wear in the context of South African manufacturers, retailers and consumers.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie navorsing fokus op die behoefte van die Suid-Afrikaanse kinderklerekleinhandelbedryf aan ‘n sisteem van kleregroottes, gebaseer op akkurate en huidige liggaamsmate-tabelle wat ontwikkel is van die werklike mates van kinders. Die oorkoepelende doelstelling van hierdie studie was om gestandaardiseerde meetmetodologieë en -tegnieke te ontwikkel wat relevant is vir die daarstelling van betroubare, akkurate en omvattende liggaamsmate-tabelle, wat dan gebruik kan word as basis vir die nuwe kleregroottesisteem, sowel as om nuwe, verbeterde en oorspronklike figuurmodelreekse te ontwikkel. Die literatuurstudie het gedien as vertrekpunt vir die beplanning en uitvoering van die empiriese studie met die fokus op kleregroottesisteme en kleregrootteaanwysingsisteme. Die kinders in die studiepopulasie het drie kategorieë verteenwoordig: ouderdom (2 tot 14 jaar), geslag (seuns en meisies) en sektor (Swart en Nie-Swart). ‘n Gerieflikheidsteekproef is uit twee geografiese areas (Wes-Kaap en Gauteng) gekies. Die empiriese studie het ‘n drie-fase-struktuur. Die eerste loodsstudie het ten doel gehad om gestandaardiseerde meettoerusting, meetmetodologieë en behoorlik aangetekende implementeringsriglyne daar te stel. Die spesifieke standaarde waarvolgens die proefpersone gemeet is en die implementering van streng kwaliteitbeheermaatreëls wat geldige, betroubare en akkuraat vasgelegde data verseker, is tydens die tweede loodsstudie bevestig. Die finale studie is gebaseer op en uitgevoer volgens die riglyne soos uiteengesit in die Field Worker Manual. Die statistiese analise is gedoen nadat die data vasgelê en skoongemaak is. Vervolgens is sleutelmates geïdentifiseer wat as basis vir die ontwikkeling van kleregroottesisteme kan dien. Volledige liggaamsmate-tabelle is daarna ontwikkel. Die identifisering van die geslagverdelingsouderdom, sowel as die analisering van groeipatrone vir die ontwikkeling van figuurmodelle, is hierop gebaseer. Die nuwe klere-aanwysingsisteme wat ontwikkel is vir kinderklere is suksesvol geïmplementeer as ‘n veelvoudige aanwysingsisteem wat liggaamslengtereekse met ouderdomsreekse en numeriese grootte-aanwysers koppel. Die nuwe en verbeterde figuurmodel-prototipes wat vervolgens ontwikkel is, is gebaseer op minimum en maksimum waardes van die liggaamsmates ten einde die konstruksie van die driedimensionele figure te vergemaklik. Daarbenewens was dit moontlik om volledige liggaamsmate-tabelle met akkurate en opmerklik ongelyke inkremente tussen groottes daar te stel, sowel as om die spesifieke groeipatrone en afsonderlike groeitoenames vir beide seuns en meises te bepaal. Die studie het nuwe en oorspronklike, sowel as meer gedetailleerde en korrekte inligting ten opsigte van die grootte en vorm van die tipiese Suid-Afrikaanse kinderklereverbruiker beskikbaar gestel. Met hierdie nuwe kennis van die liggaamslengte-gebaseerde kleregroottesisteem, is dit nou vir kleinhandelaars moontlik om ‘n volledige stel graderingsreëls daar te stel en in produkontwikkeling toe te pas. Die identifikasie en afbakening van belangrike liggaamsbakens vergemaklik patroon- en klereontwikkeling sowel as die evaluering van die mate waarin dit pas; dit waarborg ‘n verbeterde produk vir die tipiese Suid-Afrikaanse kinderklereverbruiker. Aanbevelings vir verdere navorsing is gemaak, soos ‘n vergelyking van die studiepopulasiekategorieë, naamlik geslag, ouderdom en sektor. Die implikasies vir kleinhandelaars is onder meer dat elke kleinhandelaar kan kies hoe om hierdie nuwe liggaamslengte-gebaseerde kleregroottesisteem te implementer en watter die mees geskikte kleregrootte-aanwysingsisteem vir hul verbruikers en interne sisteme sal wees. Die standaarde wat vir hierdie studie gestel is, sowel as die metodologieë wat geïmplementeer is, is ‘n aansienlike verbetering op die groottes en pas van kinderklere binne die konteks van die Suid-Afrikaanse vervaardigers, kleinhandelaars en verbruikers.

Resumo: As roupas, como elemento da cultura material, constroem, compõem, fabricam aparências e, desse modo, contribuem para a compreensão da educação do corpo e de aspectos da vida em sociedade. Esta tese analisa o lugar das roupas na educação do corpo de crianças nos anos de 1950, tomando como fontes principais as revistas de circulação Manchete e Jornal das Moças e as revistas destinadas a um público infantil, O Tico-Tico e Cirandinha. No intuito de participar do ideal de uma nação próspera, moderna e urbana, as revistas delimitaram as aparências, os gestos e o comportamento em público, reforçando uma educação que diferenciaria as funções femininas e masculinas na vida social da criança. Nesse período, em que uma sociedade de consumo se consolidava no Brasil, a publicidade estimulava a aquisição de novos produtos e propagava, juntamente com outros meios de comunicação, as atitudes condizentes às "pessoas refinadas" e "elegantes". A imagem da criança era veiculada em inúmeros anúncios e tanto atingia os adultos quanto dialogava com o público infantil. A análise do vestuário de meninos e meninas representado nessas publicações, no que se refere aos aspectos mais sutis da costura, como os tecidos, as cores, os cortes e os bordados, revela as narrativas e as definições sobre a infância e os sentimentos projetados nas relações entre crianças e adultos, tais como os da pureza e da inocência
Abstract: As an element of the material culture clothes can frame, compose and manufacture appearances, thus contributing for the comprehension of the education of the body and of aspects of life in society. This thesis analyses the place of clothing in the education of the body of children in the 1950s by using as main sources the magazines Manchete and Jornal das Moças, as well as magazines addressed to children, namely O Tico-Tico and Cirandinha. Aiming to participate in the ideal of a prosperous, modern and urban nation, magazines established the appearances, gestures and behaviors that should be performed in public, reinforcing an education that would differentiate female and male roles in the social life of children. In this period, when a consumer society established itself in Brazil, publicity stimulated the acquisition of new products and along with other means of communication propagated the suitable attitudes to people who were "refined" and "elegant". The image of children was transmitted by numerous advertisements addressed for both adult and child audiences. The analysis of the children¿s clothing for boys and girls that appeared in these magazines reveals in its most subtle aspects (such as tissues, colors, shape and embroidery) the narratives and definitions of childhood as well as the feelings projected in the relationships between children and adults, such as purity and innocence

На основі аналізу тижнів моди в Києві, Львові та Одесі визначено кількість колекцій з дитячими образами, що були представлені починаючи з 2010 року. Встановлено, що індустрія дитячої моди активно розвивається: створюються спеціалізовані тижні моди, проходять покази колекцій сучасних дизайнерів на промислових виставках. В ході дослідження визначено, що дитячий одяг в політиці українських брендів може бути основним асортиментом, лінією одягу, однією з колекцій або окремо створеним образом.The results of research of the Ukrainian fashion industry in the field of children's clothes are given in order to determine the main prospects for its development. Based on the analysis of fashion weeks in Kiev, Lviv and Odessa, the number of collections with children's looks presented in recent years has been determined. This article argues that the industry of children's fashion is actively developing: specialized weekly mods are created, collections of modern designers are showing at industrial exhibitions. It has been established that children's clothing in the policy of Ukrainian brands could be the main assortment, line of clothes, one of collections or individually created clothes. The study indicates that today children become not only active consumers of fashion clothes, but also participants in the process of creating and promoting new collections.

Full textAbstract:
Дитячий адаптивний одяг покликаний вирішувати ряд фізіологічних, психологічних і соціальних задач, тому його проєктування вимагає особливої компетенції конструктора-модельєра. Зокрема, для дизайну адаптивного дитячого одягу необхідно враховувати особливості руху, диспропорційність фігури, моторику, зручність одягання тощо. Також необхідно використовувати текстильні матеріали та фурнітуру з певними поверхневими властивостями, адже якість поверхні одягу відіграє особливу роль для дітей з різними порушеннями психофізичного розвитку. Для серійного виробництва дитячого адаптивного одягу необхідно враховувати особливості виростання дітей, так як зміна антропологічних розмірів не відповідає системі розмірних ознак за віковими групами. Зважаючи на світову тенденцію підвищення попиту на дитячу інклюзивну моду, постає необхідність проаналізувати особливості дизайну адаптивного одягу з метою розробки рекомендацій і подальшого їх впровадження у масове виробництво.Children's adaptive clothing solves a number of physiological, psychological and social problems, so its design is a difficult engineering task. In particular, for the design of adaptive children's clothing it is necessary to take into account the peculiarities of movement, disproportion of the figure, motility, comfort of dressing etc. It is also necessary to use textile materials and accessories with certain surface properties, because the quality of the surface of clothing plays an important role for children with various psychophysical disorders. For serial production of children's adaptive clothing it is necessary to take into account the peculiarities of children's growth, as the change in anthropological size does not correspond to the system of dimensional features by age groups. Given the global trend of increasing demand for children's inclusive fashion, there is a need to analyze the design of adaptive clothing in order to develop recommendations and their further implementation in mass production.

Följande studie syftar till att undersöka hur ett genusneutralt mönster för barnkläder skulle kunna se ut med avseende på färg och motiv. Forskning genom design har använts som tillvägagångssätt, varpå olika designförslag tagits fram. För att få inblick i den rådande samhällssituationen inför designprocessen studerades bland annat teorier gällande normer, genus, färg, motiv och form. Genom en kvantitativ pilotstudie, besvarad av 100 personer, undersöktes människors föreställningar gällande färg och motiv i förhållande till kön. Då det inom den akademiska litteraturen fanns luckor kring genusneutralitet genomfördes en förstudie i form av kvalitativa intervjuer med en Art Director, en unisex-designer, två forskare samt en genuspedagog. Syftet med förstudien var att skapa kännedom kring begreppet genusneutralitet och för att skapa ett bredare underlag till designprocessen. Under designprocessen kopplades lärdomar från såväl teorier som pilot- och förstudie in, varpå fyra olika mönster skapades. För att undersöka huruvida skapade mönster kunde ses som genusneutrala genomfördes kvalitativa intervjuer med barn, vuxna, klädbutiker samt en genuspedagog. I värderingsprocessen deltog totalt 30 personer. Resultatet visar att tre av fyra skapade mönster kan ses som genusneutrala, även om ett tenderade att uppfattas som något flickigt och ett annat något pojkigt. Ett av de skapade mönstren upplevdes ej vara neutralt utan uppfattades som pojkigt. Avslutningsvis diskuteras resultatet och studien i stort.

Full textAbstract:
A design process developed by Joann Boles was used to develop a therapy garment for three four-year-old boys with sensory integrative dysfunction who participated in occupational therapy using sensory integrative methods. The design process framework has four stages: (a) problem development, (b) needs assessment, (c) prototype development, and (d) evaluation. The problem was developed by observing children with sensory impairments; interviewing parents and professionals involved with sensory impairments; experiencing sensory integrative methods; and reviewing the literature.The needs were assessed for the wearers, the activity, and the environment through four weeks of observations, interviews with the child and significant others, and document reviews. The research design was multiple case studies. The data collection and analyses followed the grounded theory procedures of open and axial coding outlined by Strauss and Corbin (1990).The resulting needs of the wearers, the activities, and the environment were translated into garment specifications and criteria. The four garment specification categories were (a) movement, (b) sensory integration, (c) motor development, and (d) play.Prototypes were generated to meet garment specifications in terms of structure, materials, and assembly. The process included writing ideas, coding and combining ideas, sketching ideas, constructing samples, and constructing a prototype solution. The resulting prototype consisted of a sleeveless pullover top, cape, and weights, and featured a bug superhero theme.The prototype was evaluated against garment specification criteria through observations, interviews, and an evaluation form. The prototype allowed full body movement and provided safety features for full interaction in the environment. The prototype provided proprioceptive input and gross motor opportunities through the elastic band loops and bug weights, and promoted the use of vestibular integrating equipment with the cape. Tactile opportunities were provided through the variety of materials. Fine and perceptual motor skills were promoted by the manipulatives on the cape and the opportunity to store fine motor activities in the cape pockets. Storing activities in the cape promoted smooth transitions, motor planning, organization, follow through, management, and self discipline. The bug theme appealed to the wearers' play interests and promoted imaginative scenarios during therapy, thus aiding in self organization and attention to task.Ph. D.

Full textAbstract:
Vi vill med denna studie bidra till att förstå hur barns status och popularitet påverkas av kläder i grundskolan. Våra resultat visar att kläder påverkar popularitet och status i ett komplext samspel med andra faktorer, såsom beteende och umgänge. Kläder börjar bli viktigt för status och popularitet någon gång under mellanstadiet. Det är då barnen börjar bry sig om sin egen, och andras, klädsel. De måste förhålla sig till ett socialt spel där bl.a. kläder påverkar barnets position i statushierarkin på skolan. Hur barnen gör detta kan variera och vissa försöker ställa sig utanför ”popularitetstjafset”, medan andra tar till förtryckande taktiker för att själva stiga i status. Vi har undersökt detta genom att intervjua sju ungdomar i åldrarna 15-18 år om deras upplevelser i mellan- och högstadiet. Dessa intervjuer har vi sedan tolkat med en fenomenologisk analysmetod för att kunna förstå hur barnen upplever att kläder påverkat dem. För att tolka våra resultat har vi använt Goffmans dramaturgiska perspektiv och Adler & Adlers beskrivning av klickar. En artikel som betytt väldigt mycket för oss under planerandet av denna studie är Jon Swains artikel The Right Stuff som utforskar hur klädsel påverkar barnen i en brittisk mellanstadieskola.The purpose of this stydy is to contribute to the understanding of how clothing affects the popularity among children. Our results show that clothing affects popularity and status i a complex interaction with other factors, such as behaviour and associates. Clothing becomes an important factor for popularity sometime during the ages middle school. This is when the children begin to care about theirs, and others, clothing. They have to relate to a social game where clothing affects their position in the status hierarchy. How they relate to this game may vary and some of them try not to compete for popularity, while others act opressively in order to gain status. We have studied this by interviewing youths ages 15-18, on their experiences during junior school. We have interpreted these interviews with an phenomenological method of analysis in order to understand how the youths experience the effects of clothing. We have used Goffmans dramaturgical perspective and Adler & Adlers description of clique dynamics in order to better understand this phenomenon. Jon Swains article The Right Stuff has proven to be of great aid during the planing of our stydy. In his article he explores how clothing affects the children in a junior school in england.

The future of the fashion industry is expected to be online, thus a significant amount of research is being conducted in the field of fashion image analysis. Currently, a task that places a heavy workload on online stores is manually tagging new garments, including attributes such as category, color, pattern, or style. To this end, extensive research has targeted the automatic prediction of clothing categories and attributes, achieving promising results. Nevertheless, no previous study has been found in the literature that specifically reflects the performance of clothing attribute recognition with children’s clothing. This work intends to fill this gap and effectively present, in the same fashion analysis task, how a model trained in adult fashion performs over a model trained exclusively in children’s fashion. When examining the global understanding of children’s fashion apparel, the experiments exhibit that the best performance is obtained when leveraging the domain knowledge of adult fashion, specifically from the iMaterialist dataset, wherein the best model a difference in the overall performance of about 3% was achieved compared to pre- training on the ImageNet dataset or 12% when only children’s fashion was considered for training.Modebranschen förväntas i framtiden vara online, och därför bedrivs det mycket forskning inom området bildanalys av modebilder. En uppgift som för närvarande innebär en stor arbetsbörda för nätbutiker är att manuellt tagga nya plagg med attribut som kategori, färg, mönster eller stil. Därför har omfattande forskning genomförts om automatisk förutsägelse av klädkategorier och attribut, och man har uppnått lovande resultat. Trots detta har ingen tidigare studie hittats i litteraturen som specifikt speglar prestandan för igenkänning av klädattribut för barnkläder. Syftet med det här arbetet är att fylla denna lucka och, som en del i en analys av mode, på ett effektivt sätt visa hur en modell som tränats för vuxenmode presterar jämfört med en modell som enbart tränats för barnmode. När man undersöker den globala förståelsen för barnkläder visar experimenten att den bästa prestandan uppnås när man utnyttjar domänkunskapen om vuxenmode, särskilt från iMaterialist- dataset, där man med den bästa modellen uppnådde en skillnad i den totala prestandan på cirka 3% jämfört med förträning på ImageNet- dataset eller 12% när endast barnmode beaktades vid träningen.

Thesis, Högskolan i Borås, Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi, 2019. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:hb:diva-22003.
Full textAbstract:
Background: In consumer culture, marketing communications is recognised as a communication system that shapes and provides resources for our understandings of the world. Arguably, those accounts channel and reproduce only dominant ideologies, which contributes to that understanding being narrow, by stigmatising those idiosyncrasies that exist beyond generally accepted norms of consumption. In relation to clothing and children’s socialisation, that stigma becomes treated differently, in a violent manner, compared to those who dress accordingly to the norms. Nevertheless, a solution for the issue is commonly sought in consumers, and not in marketers. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine Finnish marketing communication practitioners’ perceptions of the phenomenon and responsibility of brand and clothing-related bullying, and to explore activities that are associated with inhibiting the bullying behaviour. Additionally, pedagogical marketing communications is discussed in relation to the other prevention activities to explore how the concept is interpret by marketing practitioners. Method: The research was interpretivist and qualitative by nature. A method of semi-structured interviews was chosen to explore marketing communication practitioners’ perceptions of the subject matter. Findings: The findings of this study indicate that marketing communication practitioners do not consider children as competent, but rather as vulnerable social beings when it comes to consumer life. Being perceived as such, the practitioners view parents, society and marketers responsible for providing solutions to the complex phenomenon, which according to the practitioners has ultimately stemmed from the structural development of societies in which digitalisation and social medias play an integral part. Contribution: The research has three identifiable implications on both theoretical and practical fields of fashion and marketing. First, it gives valuable information on how marketers view children as a market. Second, it provides a new, marketer’s viewpoint of to look at the phenomenon. Third, it recognises the marketers to have their roles as consumers beyond their roles as marketplace authoritatives.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The purpose of the study was to create a comprehensive view and add understanding about the childcare practice of children sleeping outdoors in the context of Northern Finnish winter. A general view of the topic was described, the thermal insulation of clothing of infants sleeping outdoors in northern winter climate was evaluated and the relationships among thermal environment, infants’ skin temperatures and daytime outdoor sleep duration were described. Mixed methods research design was used. A questionnaire was distributed to the parents (n=116) of children under 2 years of age in the city of Oulu. Skin temperatures of about three-month-old infants were recorded from seven skin sites throughout a daytime sleep outdoors (n=34) and indoors (n=33) in the families’ homes. The duration of the infant’s sleep was observed and air temperature and velocity of the outdoor environment were recorded. Clothing data of infants were collected and microclimate temperatures and humidity inside middle wear measured. The insulation of clothing ensembles was measured by using a baby-size thermal manikin. The required clothing insulation was estimated according to ISO 11079. Mothers (n=21) from Northern Finland were interviewed. A fit can be found between family – cultural outdoor sleeping childcare practice – and Northern Finnish winter environment, but also factors that decreased the fit existed. Winter environment was seen as an affordance for the child to sleep outdoors. Infants usually slept outdoors in the daytime once a day in different kinds of environments, the best temperature being -5 °C. Outdoor sleeping was a self-evident and common culturally bound custom. Guidelines and encouragement were given to mothers from different sources, and by sharing their own experiences, mothers participated in the cultural knowledge-building processes. The outdoor sleeping practice was commonly accepted collective behavior. Many risk factors also existed, but when all security perspectives were first taken into account it promoted family well-being by creating rhythm and strengthening the fluency of everyday life. The optimal thermal insulation was difficult to adjust systematically and both cooling and sweating existed. When ambient temperature decreased, the cooling rate of Tsk increased. Children slept longest outdoors when the cooling rate of Tsk was minimal. The basic idea was that outdoor sleeping promoted children’s health. A comprehensive view of the phenomenon was gathered into the evaluation model, which can be utilized in nursing practice. The findings give detailed information that is utilized when updating guidelines. This study also creates ground for international comparative studiesTiivistelmä Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli muodostaa kokonaiskuva ja lisätä ymmärrystä lasten ulkona nukuttamiskäytännöstä pohjoissuomalaisessa talvikontekstissa lasten ja perheiden hyvinvoinnin lisäämiseksi. Tarkoituksena oli kuvata lasten ulkona nukuttamiskäytäntöä, ympäristön ja ihon lämpötilojen sekä unen pituuden yhteyttä ja arvioida vaatetuksen lämmöneristävyyttä. Tutkimuksessa käytettiin mixed methods -lähestymistapaa monipuolisen kokonaiskuvan tavoittamiseksi. Pilottikysely tehtiin alle 2-vuotiaiden lasten vanhemmille (n=116) Oulun alueella. Ihon lämpötiloja mitattiin seitsemästä eri kehon osasta noin kolmen kuukauden ikäisiltä lapsilta (n=34) heidän nukkuessaan kotona päiväuniaan sisällä ja ulkona Pohjois-Suomessa talvella. Unen pituutta havainnoitiin ja ympäristön lämpötilaa ja tuulen nopeutta mitattiin. Lasten talvivaatetuksesta kerättiin tietoa ja lämpötiloja mitattiin vaatetuksen eri kerroksista sekä kosteutta välivaatetuksen alta. Vaatetuksen lämmöneristävyyksiä mitattiin lasten kokoa vastaavalla lämpönukella. Vaadittava lämmöneristävyys arvioitiin ISO 11079 – standardin mukaisesti. Pohjoissuomalaisia lapsiperheiden äitejä (n=21) haastateltiin kulttuurisen tiedon esille tuomiseksi. Yhteensopivuus perheen, kulttuurisen ulkona nukuttamiskäytännön ja pohjoisen talviympäristön välillä voidaan saavuttaa, mutta toisaalta myös tasapainoa vähentäviä tekijöitä löytyi. Talviympäristö nähtiin tarjoumana lapsen rauhalliselle nukkumiselle sen puhtaan ja raikkaan ilman ja luonnon sekä hiljaisuuden ja rauhallisuuden takia. Talvinen sää vaihteli auringon paisteesta kovaan lumipyryyn ja lämpötila muutamista lämpöasteista lähes kolmenkymmenen asteen pakkaseen lasten nukkuessa vaunuissaan. Paras lämpötila ulkona nukkumiselle oli -5 °C. Ulkona nukuttamista pidettiin itsestään selvänä kulttuurisena tapana. Äidit saivat ohjeita ja kannustusta lasten ulkona nukuttamiseen eri lähteistä. Vertailemalla ja jakamalla kokemuksiaan he osallistuivat myös itse kulttuurisen tiedon rakenteluun. Lasten ulkona nukuttaminen talvella osoittautui yleisesti hyväksytyksi kollektiiviseksi käyttäytymiseksi, joka toisinaan aiheutti paineita äideille. Lapsen ulkona nukkumiseen liittyi monia riskitekijöitä, mutta kaikki turvallisuusnäkökohdat ensin huomioon ottamalla se edisti perheen hyvinvointia luomalla säännöllistä rytmiä ja vahvistamalla arjen sujuvuutta. Optimaalisen vaatetuksen lämmöneristävyyden löytäminen systemaattisesti eri lämpötiloissa oli vaikeaa; sekä jäähtymistä että hikoilua esiintyi. Ympäristön lämpötilan laskiessa keskimääräisen ihon lämpötilan jäähtymisnopeus lisääntyi. Lapset nukkuivat ulkona pisimpään silloin, kun ihon lämpötilan jäähtyminen oli hitainta. Ensisijaisesti ulkona nukkumisen ajateltiin edistävän lapsen terveyttä. Lasten ulkona nukuttamisen arviointimallia voidaan hyödyntää käytännössä ohjauksen yhteydessä ja tutkimuksen tuottamaa yksityiskohtaista tietoa ohjeistusten päivittämisessä. Tutkimus antaa lähtökohtia kansainväliselle vertailevalle tutkimukselle

Full textAbstract:
Följande studie är en kandidatuppsats i designteknik. Den undersöker skillnader som uppkommer vid gradering när två olika appliceringsmetoder används. Undersökningen görs på uppdrag från ett svenskt modeföretag. På företagets barnavdelning används i nuläget två graderingsmetoder men i framtiden vill de övergå till att använda endast en av dem. För att avgöra vilken behöver skillnaderna dem emellan klargöras. Den första metoden är utvecklad av företaget själva utifrån expertfunktioner i CAD-programvaran Modaris (Lectra 2017a). Medan den andra metoden grundar sig i en mer traditionell punktgradering. Metoderna jämförs genom att gradera upp två plagg utifrån varje metod, en t-tröja och en mjukisbyxa båda i trikå. Därefter undersöks skillnaderna genom att jämföra mönstren, plaggmåttlistor och provplagg. Resultatet av studien visar att appliceringsmetoderna utgör flera skillnader både i mönsterdelarnas form och i plaggmåttlistornas skillnadsintervaller. Under avprovning klargörs det dock att dessa skillnader behöver vara relativt stora för att påverka slutprodukten. En gemensam observation i alla tre jämförelsemetoder är att ju längre ut från grundstorleken graderingen rör sig desto mer ökar skillnaderna mellan appliceringsmetoderna.The following study is a bachelor essay in design technology. It investigates the differences that occur when applicating grading with two different methods. The study is made on a mission from a Swedish fashion company. Currently the company’s children’s department are using two different grading methods, however in the future the company wants to transition into only using one of them. To determent whish one the differences needs to be identified. The first method is developed by the company themselves based on expert functions in the CAD-program Modaris (Lectra 2017a). While the second method is based on a more traditional point grading. The methods are being compared in the study by grading two garments according to each method, one t-shirt and one jogger both in jersey material. The differences are then investigated by comparing pattern pieces, garment measurement charts and garment samples. In the result several differences between the methods are discovered, these are found both in the shape of the pattern pieces and in the grading intervals in the garment measurement chart. However, during the fitting session it was determent that these differences needs to be quite large to impact on the final product. A joint observation in all three comparison methods was that the further the grading moves from the base size the greater the differences are.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Comunicação Social na especialização de Comunicação EstratégicaNo intuito de motivar os consumidores a adquirir os seus produtos ou serviços, as empresas utilizam diferentes ferramentas de comunicação. As novas tecnologias alteraram profundamente a forma de negociar e de comunicar, facilitando o incremento das transações comerciais internacionais, reduzindo a importância das fronteiras geográficas e possibilitando que a comunicação das marcas, que inicialmente era massificada, evoluísse para uma comunicação mais segmentada, chegando até à individualização. A pesquisa analisa as estratégias de comunicação da marca portuguesa de vestuário infantil Laranjinha no seu mercado doméstico e no mercado internacional, focalizando-se especialmente no mercado angolano. O estudo aborda também o perfil ou as caraterísticas daquele mercado, especificando as oportunidades e os obstáculos com os quais as empresas se deparam. A escolha do tema foi motivada pelo interesse que Angola desperta nas empresas portuguesas. Assim, definimos a seguinte pergunta de partida: que dificuldades e oportunidades de comunicação de marketing encontram as empresas portuguesas quando internacionalizam as suas marcas para Angola? Recorremos a uma metodologia qualitativa que, para além da revisão de literatura e da análise das campanhas de comunicação de marketing da marca, incluiu entrevistas a especialistas. Para complementar a recolha de dados, socorremo-nos da técnica de observação participante. Os resultados obtidos demonstram que apesar do crescimento económico do país da última década, do aumento do consumo e dos incentivos ao investimento, as empresas portuguesas também se deparam com restrições que afectam as suas decisões de comunicação
In order to motivate consumers to buy their products or services, companies use different communication tools. New technologies have fundamentally altered how to negotiate and communicate, facilitating the increase in international business transactions, reducing the importance of geographical borders and allowing the brand communication, which was initially mass, evolve to a more targeted communication, reaching the individualization. The research analyzes the communication strategies of the Portuguese brand of children's clothing Laranjinha in its domestic and international markets, focusing especially on the Angolan market. The study also addresses the profile or the characteristics of that market, specifying the opportunities and obstacles that businesses face. The choice of the theme was motivated by the interest that Angola has awaken in Portuguese companies in the last years. Thus, we set the following starting question: which difficulties and opportunities in communication do Portuguese companies face when internationalizing their brands to Angola? We used a qualitative method which, in addition to the literature review, comprehended analysis to the brand´s communication campaigns and interviews with specialists. In addition to data collection we use participant observation technique. The results show that, despite the country's economic growth, increased consumption and investment incentives, Portuguese companies also face restrictions at various levels that influence their communication decisions.

Après une revue de la littérature (sur l’enfant-consommateur et l’adolescent-consommateur) et grâce à une étude qualitative auprès d’enfants et d’adolescents, un modèle conceptuel a été élaboré. Une étude descriptive a été menée auprès de 132 enfants et 119 adolescents pour étudier comment les enfants et les adolescents influencent leurs parents pour l’achat de produits qu’ils désirent. Le rôle modérateur de certaines variables est aussi affirmé, d’autres infirméThe aim of this dissertation is to study the strategies of influence of children and teenagers when they ask their parents to buy them games, toys and brand clothing. The aim is also to verify whether or not there are differences between the strategies of influence of children, and those of teenagers. The children in this study are between age 7 and 11, and belong to the concrete operational stage of Piaget’s cognitive development theory (1975). The teenagers are between age 12 and 15, and belong to the formal operational stage of Piaget’s cognitive development theory (1975). After a literature review on children consumers and teenage consumers, and thanks to a qualitative study conducted among children and teenagers, a conceptual model was elaborated. A descriptive study was carried out among 132 children and 119 teenagers in order to study how children and teenagers influence their parents into buying goods that they want. The moderating role of some variables is also confirmed, that of others is invalidated

My mixed media collages address issues concerning the outcast, the overlooked, and the underprivileged. My inspirations come from what I experience and perceive around me. My purpose in life is to use my art to address social issues that involve children. For example, I focus my attention on issues ranging from homelessness to mental illness. I am passionate about how vital these concerns are to our success as human beings.
To express my ideas, I layer a variety of materials and textiles. The materials include fragments of photographs, drawings, and objects. The textiles include articles of clothing and fabrics. Recurring symbols and imagery link the individual pieces together. The theme of each work determines the materials and media. While doing research for a piece, new social issues often surface and lead to the next piece.

"The development of children's buttoning ability: Self, other, and clothing design." Tulane University, 2021.
Find full textAbstract:
archives@tulane.eduYoung children’s adaptive behaviors, particularly those relating to self-care skills (e.g., independent dressing), are markers for school-readiness. Yet little is known about how self-care skills develop or how children’s ability to perform self-care skills can be facilitated. We conducted two studies to examine how children learn to button (Study 1) and how clothing design may inhibit or promote children’s buttoning ability (Study 2). In Study 1, we asked 48 children, ages 5- to 7-years-old, to button shirts with both small and large buttons in varying spatial locations (on themselves, on stuffed animals placed across from them, on stuffed animals placed in their laps). Results showed a developmental progression whereby children became more effective and efficient when buttoning on themselves than buttoning on another. We also found that large buttons were easier for children to manage than small buttons. However, when we conducted an environmental scan of children’s clothing in department stores (Study 2), we found that children’s shirts most often have small buttons. This suggests that clothing may not be designed in a way that would promote independent dressing. Collectively, our results provide important insights into the ways in which the design of daily artifacts can be tailored to children’s developing abilities.

Full textAbstract:
The children's apparel industry is a fast-growing
industry in the United States. It is important to determine
what factors are considered as the most important when
parents purchase their pre-school children's clothing. To
gain a better understanding of parent-consumers' purchasing
behavior of pre-school children's apparel, this study
focused on parent-consumers' evaluative criteria used in
purchasing pre-school children's apparel both in Taiwan and
in the U.S.
The purpose of this study was to compare the evaluative
criteria used by Taiwan and U.S. parent-consumers in their
decisions to purchase children's apparel. The importance of
intrinsic criteria directly related to the product itself
and some selected extrinsic criteria were examined.
The theoretical framework used for the present study
was the EKB consumer behavior model; with focus on the
alternative evaluation stage of the consumer decision making
process. Previous research has examined evaluative criteria
used in purchasing women's and men's apparel, but only
limited research has investigated evaluative criteria used
in purchasing children's apparel.
Survey methodology was used to collect data. A self-administered
questionnaire was distributed to two non-probability,
purposive samples to collect quantitative data.
Data were collected through two selected pre-schools at
Oregon State University in the U.S. and at Fu Jen Catholic
University in Taiwan. The samples consisted of 200 parent-consumers
with a child or children, ages 3 to 6. Subjects
were given questionnaires through teachers or researcher,
resulting in a 84.1% response rate.
Collected data were analyzed using two sample t-tests.
Significant differences were found between the two groups in
the importance of aesthetic and extrinsic criteria but not
in the importance of usefulness and performance criteria.
Among all 22 criteria, significant differences were found
between Taiwan and U.S. respondents in the importance of:
fiber content, type of fabric, fabric print, having
character/logo, color fastness, price, on sale, brand name,
and country of origin. The most important criteria for both
groups were comfort and size/fit.
By identifying the evaluative criteria used by parent-consumers
of pre-school children's apparel in two countries,
the results partially supported the EKB consumer behavior
model. In addition, the findings about the importance of
purchase criteria used by parent-consumers may also benefit
children's apparel manufacturers and retailers in revising
or improving their competitive ability in global marketing.Graduation date: 1995

Boulton, Chris. "Trophy Children Don’t Smile: Fashion Advertisements For Designer Children’s Clothing In Cookie Magazine." 2007. https://scholarworks.umass.edu/theses/3.
Full textAbstract:
This study examines print advertising from Cookie, an up-scale American parenting magazine for affluent mothers. The ads include seven designer clothing brands: Rocawear, Baby Phat, Ralph Lauren, Diesel, Kenneth Cole, Sean John, and DKNY. When considered within the context of their adult equivalents, the ads for the children’s lines often created a prolepsis—or flash-forward—by depicting the child model as a nascent adult. This was accomplished in three ways. First, the children’s ads typically contained structural continuities such as logo, set design, and color scheme that helped reinforce their relationship with the adult brand. Second, most of the ads place the camera at eye-level—a framing that allows the child models to address their adult viewers as equals. Finally, almost half of the ads feature at least one child looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. This is significant because, in Western culture, the withholding of a smile is a sign of dominance typically reserved for adult males. When children mimic this familiar and powerful “look,” they convey a sense of adult-like confidence and self-awareness often associated with precocious sexuality.

In recent years, under the influence of globalization, many enterprises develop their business to the world. In order to a faster production, close to customers, reduce the cost, the Global Logistics Management(GLM) was proposed. In Taiwan, IT industry first use Global Logistics Management(GLM) in their organizations. More and more industries try to use Global Logistics Management(GLM). The children''s clothing needs is insufficient in Taiwan. It may cause the sales volume to decline. On the other hand, the new brand and the import brand enter unceasingly. The birth rate and Disposable Personal Income (DI) decline, the price of goods has risen. It only actively develop overseas market, brand, and channel. Therefore, it is different with the profit center. This research proposed a Global Logistics Management(GLM) model of the Children''s clothing industry. In view of the different demand type, we simulate differently strategy of replenishment by system dynamics. Finally analyzes the result and proposed a better replenishment mechanism.
