Abstract:

We select clothes that we’re purchasing and wearing according to the meaning we believe them to have, or the messages we believe them to send. But what are psychological consequences of clothing, and how does clothing express something about the user? To assess the state of knowledge about the communicative nature of fashion, the aim of this review was to provide a concise and succinct literature overview of over twenty empirical studies of the above-mentioned concept. The psychology behind clothing is classified into 3 thematic categories in this paper: a) the meaning of colors in clothing psychology; b) the socio-psycological impact of clothing; and c) gender (in)equality regarding clothing. Finally the last chapter brings a concise study of a few recent fashion shows, brands and trends. It is doubtless that both clothing and appearance serve as an important socializing influence and a form of communication.

Abstract:

In this work, we present a new way of understanding psychology, which emerges as a result of relating it to the three principles of the theory of fashion of Gilles Lipovetsky: “the principle of the ephemeral,” “the principle of the marginal differentiation of individuals,” and “the principle of seduction.” We relate the first principle to the plurality of the diverse and changing “schools and systems” that have existed throughout the history of psychology. We apply the second to the figure of the psychologist, considered individually, revealing his or her leading role in the generation of the changing plurality of the systems. By means of the third principle, we point up that the diverse psychologies are forms of seduction. We conclude by stating that psychology has the form of fashion and we analyze how this form can help us to better understand it.

Abstract:

This paper reports the results of two surveys of female consumers in Florida to discover whether fashion leadership was associated with ethnocentrism or how consumers feel about purchasing foreign-made products. Age was uncorrelated with fashion leadership in each study and only weakly correlated with consumers' ethnocentrism in Study 1 ( r = .12). In Study 1 ( n = 641) there was no relationship between fashion leadership and consumers' ethnocentrism. In Study 2 ( n = 286), the correlation was weak ( r = −.21); greater fashion leadership was associated with lower opposition to buying imported products.

Abstract:

Due to fast-paced society and fierce competition, more and more attentions are paid to consumers way of life and their psychological needs in fashion design. Color, a major element of fashion design, is a certain psychological feeling stimulated from vision, a combination of perception and ration. It should be designed and applied from the aspect of color psychology. Based on the cases and survey, this study aims to explore the application of psychological effect of color in fashion design. Fashion designers should consider the fashion color, focus on consumers preference for color, shade, style, patterns and the psychological effect, meet psychological needs of the target and potential consumers, and express psychological suggestion effect of color. Designers should also develop products at the level of matter and spirit, select fashion color to consumers mind, and finally apply color psychological effect in fashion planning and designing, products developing and marketing. The results of this study may play a guiding role in the strategy of modern fashion design.

Abstract:

This article explores the links between habit, fashion and subjectification to extend analysis of the clothed body beyond the semiotic frames that have tended to dominate discussions of fashion across the social sciences and humanities. Our goal is to explain how fashion’s diverse materialities participate in the modulations of subjectivity, affecting bodies in diverse encounters between matter, signs and practices. We develop our analysis by way of Gilles Deleuze’s discussion of encounters, habit and memory. Our principal contention is that fashion may usefully be theorised in terms of specific habits of coordination by which affects, memories, sensations and desires are transmitted between bodies in varied spatial, temporal, material and affective encounters. Following the work of John Protevi, we argue that such coordination expresses a distinctive mode of subjectification according to the specific encounters immanent to it. We ground this discussion in detailed analysis of the work of Melbourne artist Fiona Abicare. Abicare’s installation and performance-based practice invokes the affective and habitual aspects of fashion as each is instantiated in encounters between bodies. Abicare’s attention to the habits and memories of the clothed body alludes to the varied practices of subjectification by which diverse subjects of fashion emerge.

Abstract:

Consumers today continue to be enchanted by appearance fashions. For some, having the capacity to style their bodies in ways they desire entitles them to ‘position’ into this practice in line with aspirational cultural standards. This, in turn, can produce considerable emotional rewards. Yet ‘keeping up’ with appearance revisions demands unwavering effort and substantial investments be made. Consequently, for others, maintaining standards in fashionable appearance also represents a source of anxiety, distress and disillusionment. In this article the relationship between social class, the development of emotional tendencies and consumption practice is theorized by locating the intersection of consumption and emotion experience within the context of social structures. Bourdieu’s practice theory, and more recent conceptualizations of class-based emotions, provide useful frameworks to interpret a variety of divergent fashion consumption strategies occurring amongst women. The article illuminates the vital role of intense emotional experiences in social life. It demonstrates how class position converges with familial relations to produce divergent forms of emotional-habitus, which structure consumption patterns to produce competing categories of fashioned femininity. Distance and discriminations between classes of individuals become increasingly perceptible when the emotions surrounding fashion consumption experiences are unraveled.

Abstract:

Drawing on scholar Marc Augé’s concept of non-place, this article contributes to growing studies that focus on the ways in which fashion produces racism. Recent years have shown a rise in the scrutiny by social media of racist fashion garments and campaigns that problematically stereotype, appropriate and Other marginalized cultures. However, less attention has been given to how racism is constructed through design practices in education and curricula, such as through the different activities and techniques that constitute the fashion ideation process. Indeed, few studies to date have examined how commonplace design tools such as sketchbooks, measuring tapes or mannequins reinscribe forms of Othering. This article sets out to critically examine representations of Othering in fashion design sketchbooks and discuss the role this ubiquitous fashion tool might play in encouraging racist fashion representations. The sketchbooks of undergraduate fashion design students were chosen for this study due to the importance of fashion education as a catalyst for future fashion cultures. From an initial sample of seventy sketchbooks, twelve sketchbooks showed representations of cultural difference through an over-reliance on excessive imagery, with limited text. These strategies showed a pattern of reproducing ahistorical static ideas which reinforce cultural hierarchies. Marc Augé’s concept of non-place is used in this study to refer to how time and space are mobilized using various design techniques and employed within sketchbooks. Such techniques show paradoxical representations of cultural differences, which lack context-specific histories and identities. The study identifies two key strategies used within fashion sketchbooks: firstly, the de-contextualization of cultural difference, and then the re-contextualization of cultural difference. Combined, these strategies show how using collaging techniques in sketchbooks in the fashion design process erases meaning by compressing time and space.

Abstract:

Individual differences in cognitive complexity, innovativeness in fashion, and fashion-opinion leadership were investigated. 50 undergraduate women completed scales on innovativeness in fashion and fashion-opinion leadership. Each subject's level of cognitive complexity was measured by the Paragraph Completion Method. In accord with predictions an inverse relationship was found between fashion-opinion leadership and cognitive complexity. Fashion-opinion leaders functioned at lower levels of cognitive complexity than nonleaders. Partial correlation analysis indicated a small positive relationship between cognitive complexity and innovativeness in fashion, with fashion-opinion leadership removed. Finally, a moderate correlation was found between fashion-opinion leadership and innovativeness in fashion, replicating previous research.

Abstract:

This panel addresses the extent to which students should be exposed to both human factors psychology and industrial/organizational psychology. Should a combined curriculum be developed called work psychology that would have a core set of courses including both industrial/organizational and human factors while still permitting students to specialize? Should courses should be taught in a holistic fashion? For example, when covering the topic of workplace design, should such topics as workstation design, ergonomics, and shift work be augmented with organizational topics as fatigue, boredom, morale, teamwork, job enrichment, and safety? Conversely, is there, perhaps, strong justification for continuing to maintain two distinct disciplines? The panel members straddle the continuum from advocating continued separation of the two disciplines to re-integrating the two disciplines.

Abstract:

The aim of the study was to investigate consumers' value perceptions of apparel companies' activities in regard to environmentally friendly apparel products. We recruited women living in USA to obtain 593 responses for statistical analysis of the data. The results suggest that the fit between environmentally friendly products and a fast fashion brand is important for fashion consumers, and a good fit of the fast fashion brand with sustainability causes increases consumers' perceptions of the fit between the parent brand and the sustainable extension line. Consumers' perceptions of cause-effectiveness value and monetary value of the extension line were each found to have an impact on both their purchase intention and their willingness to pay a premium price. These findings contribute to both academia and fast fashion retailers interested in corporate social responsibility.

Abstract:

The purpose was to investigate the association of fashion consumer groups' scores on sensation seeking and clothing individuality. Fashion innovators are expected to be sensation seekers and to use clothing to express their individuality. 142 undergraduate students were administered Hirschman and Adcock's Measure of Innovativeness and Opinion Leadership, Zuckerman's Sensation Seeking Scale, and the Creekmore Clothing Interest Scale. Analysis showed that there was a significant mean difference between fashion innovators and fashion followers as sensation seekers and in using clothing to express individuality. Results suggest that fashion innovators may have a greater need for experiences than do fashion followers.

Full text

Abstract:

During his lifetime, Karl Otto Lagerfeld (1933–2018) attained such industry renown that he became widely known as the Emperor of Fashion. Lagerfeld ran several fashion houses, such as Chanel and Fendi, leading them to unprecedented profits. He also created his own fashion label. Owing to his unremitting pursuit of excellence through creative expression, Lagerfeld’s creativity, energy and intuition for fashion trends seemed only to expand throughout his long career. The authors suggest that, through his creative approach to fashion, architecture, and publishing, Lagerfeld articulated and refined a core set of values-such as “Bildung,” “lightness” and “the unexpected”—that served as a Diltheyan “nexus” linking the Prussian-born designer with the global consumer. The authors apply two specific creativity theories to Lagerfeld’s life and work, namely the mini-c, little-c, Pro-c and Big-C creativity theory and Sternberg’s WICS-model (wisdom, intelligence and creativity). The article uses a psychobiographical case study design formulated according to a research paradigm of modern hermeneutics. First- and third-person data on Lagerfeld were collected and evaluated through a hermeneutically-informed syntho-analysis. Research ethics were followed. The findings demonstrate the interplay of mini-c, little-c, Pro-c and Big-C creativity throughout the subject’s lifetime, as well as the subject’s application of WICS, both of which led to the subject’s worldwide success. Conclusions are drawn and recommendations for future research and practice are provided.

Full text

Abstract:

Little research has been conducted into the relationship between fashion and psychology, even less on how individuals create wellbeing through appearance and clothing. In this study, the subjective experience of wearing an “outfit that makes you happy” was analyzed using interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA). Six participants, both male and female, were interviewed wearing an outfit that “made them happy.” The semi-structured interviews highlighted the importance of “intentionally managing identity.” Analysis found subordinate themes: shaping identity, coping strategies, and social identity. These were broken down into “knowing who I am,” “matching my outsides to my insides,” “creating my best self,” “managing moods,” “resilience,” “fashioning positive relationships,” and “shared values,” and linked to the concept of flourishing in positive psychology (PP). The results suggest that how the participants dress plays an active part in their wellbeing through expressing positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment (PERMA).

Abstract:

Purpose Previous research in sociology, psychology and fashion studies has investigated the concept of diversity in the fashion context, but the topic remains largely understudied within the realm of consumer research. This study aims to examine the reactions of underrepresented women to the fashion industry’s lack of diversity. Design/methodology/approach A total of 38 semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted among a sample of female consumers who were diverse with respect to racial and ethnic background, socioeconomic class, religion, sexual orientation, age, body type and physical appearance. Findings Using Bourdieu’s forms of capital – social, cultural, economic and symbolic – the findings shed light on the process of virtual community formation on social media in response to the lack of diversity in fashion; reveal fashion consumers’ power to enact institution-level change, compelling the industry to become more diverse and inclusive; demonstrate the outcomes of capital accumulation and illustrate how all forms of capital are produced by and reproduce each other. Originality/value This study proposes a new outcome of capital accumulation on virtual communities, termed “transformative value,” in addition to the social and information values identified in earlier scholarship.

Abstract:

The present study analyzes the content of professional pedagogical competence in specialists of fashion industry, formation of which becomes an important pedagogical task for educational training of future experts in the sphere of production. The marketable effectiveness of fashion industry products is determined not only by their objective properties but also by subjective psychological needs of a consumer. That is why the educational training of future fashion industry experts should contribute to formation of their professional-psychological literacy as an important component of general professional competence. It has been proved that basic education in an educational institution only creates the basis for further self-improvement of professional competence, and also it should form a person's internal, psychological need for constant replenishment of knowledge and skills, orienting it to continuous education and self-education. Formation of professional-psychological competence is an important direction of training of specialists and the components of this training is the formation of theoretical knowledge and practical skills in applied branches of social psychology, advertising, computer science. It has been shown that educational activity of teachers of Lviv college College of Fashion Industry of Kyiv National University of Technology and Design is oriented on the formation in students not only understanding the specifics of production, but also the awareness of the specifics of consumption, the psychology of users of products that they, as future specialists, will have to produce. In the process of teaching special disciplines, college teachers are keen to highlight their content, taking into account the tasks of forming professional psychological literacy of future specialists.

Abstract:

This paper explores how the temporal disjunction established in the production of narrative affords a way of managing the tension between competing demands for accountability in settings where the issue of cultural difference features as a participant concern. Specifically, in speculating upon the nature of cultural variation and cross-cultural contact, interview participants employ narrative accounts to manage the tension between the demand to formulate their concerns in an impartial and unprejudiced fashion on the one hand while displaying an appreciation of and sensitivity to cultural difference on the other. Such interactional work is considered for its theoretical significance to recent developments in discursive psychology. The deployment of narrative is therefore examined for how it relates to the situated production of social scientific investigation itself as a form of social activity in which speakers manage the reflexive implications of their own participation in an undertaking where knowledge of cultural difference is worked up as the outcome of the situated activity in which they are engaged. {Narrative, Discursive Psychology, Culture, Identity, Reflexivity)

Abstract:

Taking the history of the psychology of religion as a case, two theses are presented: (1) Psychology has always been determined by a multitude of contextual factors, among them seemingly trivial ones such as “market” and “fashion,” and (2) research on its history readily turns into critical reflection on contemporary psychology. Psychology of religion is discussed as a subdiscipline of psychology at large, and it is pointed out that it is both a field of application of psychology in general and a part of theoretical psychology. To explain the lack of institutionalization of this subdiscipline in Germany, a comparison is made with the neighboring country of the Netherlands (where institutionalization has been remarkable). It is claimed that work on the history of psychology is necessary for the development of psychology itself and that if it is to make an impact within psychology it should not be left to professional historians without training in psychology.

Abstract:

Although the writings of C.G. Jung may very well inspire an adequate integration of psychology and theology, they do not provide it ready-made. This is due to three characteristics of Jung the writer and commentator–-that he was a bricoleur, an alchemist, and a therapist This is to say, he put together in handyman fashion (bricoleur) imagistic impressions of his work in the laboratory (alchemist) which was his consulting room (therapist). Because Jung was sensitive to the problem of modernism in his own experience and in that of his patients, his writings amount to a “bricolage” lying somewhere between the contemporary individual's inchoate longings and the integration of psychology and theology which is yet to be articulated.
