Abstract

Abstract:
Today, there is a new design space in which the fields of Fashion design and Interaction Design are integrated. Therefore, new expressive and interactive technologies are becoming relevant for the field of Fashion design. Fashion, technology and interaction design are contrasting notions that will be analysed in this research. Since “Interactivity”, as the origin of this research, has a strong inter-relationship with electronic design. Electronic design technology is the based technology for setting up interaction processes and operating the whole system of Interactive Fashion Design. Based on the electronics applied into clothing, there has been the term named wearable electronics.‌ Interaction designs today adopt electronic technology terms and user interface designs. While modern living has been increasingly interactive, equal attention has been drawn upon emotion psychology in the course of interactions. It is timely indeed for the aspiration for creation of Interactive Fashion and a deeper understanding of its interactions among wearers and between wearer and clothing. This research highlighted the concept of fashion that is interactive between the garment and the wearer and the context in which it is worn.
Keywords: Wearable Technology, Intelligent Clothing, Smart Fashion, Functional Fashion, Interaction Design, Interactive Fashion.
Research goal:
The aim of this research is to create a theoretical framework that combines functional fashion design values with interaction design values in a model that could theoretically be used interdisciplinary for the future development of wearable technology products.
The importance of the research:
This research provided theoretical reference for decoding and analyzing interaction design applications in the field of fashion whereby various interaction processes.
Research hypothesis:
Blending interaction design and fashion design in order to create new Interactive Fashion designs.
Methodology:
This research is interdisciplinary. It involves art, design, fashion, electronic technology, psychology, humanity, etc. Therefore, inclusive literature reviews, systematic theoretical research, analysis research as well as a series of integrated applications are provided.
The research follows the descriptive analytical approach to study the affection of interaction design applications on fashion. And to achieve the goal of the research, the following points should be covered:
1. Fashion Design.
2. Fashion vs. Clothing.
3. Functional Fashion.
4. Wearable technology “Wearables”.
5. Fashion meets technology “Techno-Fashion”.
6. Intelligent clothing and smart fashion.
7. What is Interaction Design?
8. The Components of Interaction Design.
9. Interactivity in Art and Design.
10. Review of Interaction Design applications in Art and Design.
11. Interaction Design applications in Fashion.
