소통의 관점에서 본 현대 패션오브제 분석

Background In the 21st modern society, various kinds of recognition of communication, a survival mode of human society, and its significance are greatly highlighted along with the development of human history. Recently the concept of communication aims for the pursuit of sensitivity and the formation of sympathy over the importance of simple delivery. Accordingly, an object shown in fashion does not only make its meaning and message clear visually along with the expression of the creator’s personality, but also plays the role of a medium for the positive communication of the creator"s sensitivity. Therefore, the purpose and significance of this study are to investigate the meaning and characteristics of objects as a creative communication method in fashion by classifying and analyzing the utilization method of the modern fashion object and its meaning from the conceptual perspective of communication. Methods In this study, I examined the characteristics of art and fashion objects by period and their meaning alongside the basic concept of communication. Moreover, I divided the concept of communication into types with objects shown in the fashion collections since 2000 by applying 15 basic concepts of communication for the theoretical background, which Frank Dance, a representative scholar of communication in the 20th century, defined, and then elicited the meaning of each concept. Results Fashion objects were divided into 3 types of communications: first, communication through the delivery of symbolic meaning; second, communication through the interaction of process and behavior; and third, communication through memory and play; and the meanings and characteristics were drawn up accordingly. Conclusion The characteristics of the modern fashion objects in terms of communication were shown as the media of polysemantic communication, the space of sharing recognition and having a healing role. Further, it is my hope that this study may lead to future research on the various communicative approaches of humans and society through fashion along with creative design development through objects.
