Textile and fashion brands convey core values through marketing, and in slow-fashion heritage brands this often includes skilled craftsmanship, authenticity, sustainability, and provenance. As industry digitalisation continues, brands are employing immersive technologies – virtual (VR) or augmented (AR) reality – however there is scarce evidence of these being used to communicate craftsmanship or provenance. To explore this potential, survey participants were shown immersive and traditional marketing content and perceptions of brand image were sought. The immersive content elicited new brand associations compared with the traditional content, which may be desirable if targeting a younger or more fashion-forward demographic. However, the immersive content was less e ff ective at inspiring participants to make a purchase, with many participants overwhelmed by the virtual environment. The research concludes that e ff ective immersive content should incorporate a streamlined representation of brand identity and core values, utilising an accessible platform while the adoption of VR headsets remains limited.

The boundaries between physical and digital practice within fashion are becoming increasingly blurred, with recent technological advancements seeing brands launching virtual collections and retailing fashion products for the Metaverse. This foray into a digital space has acted as a catalyst for the use of digital software in practical design and make applications and provided opportunities for innovation when challenging ecological parameters. Utilising an action research approach, this paper proposes three cycles of iterative problem solving, creating an interplay between physical and virtual garment experimentation. A process of product deconstruction, digitisation and remanufacture has provided insights into the possibilities of new practices enabling garment remanufacture methods for circularity. Findings have indicated that the use of 3D fashion design software can aid in the diversion of whole garments from the landfill and help enable commercial viability in methods of remanufacture within the sportswear market sector.

ABSTRACTIn this study, studio-based and virtual reality-based courses were taught online to fashion design students during a semester. Students’ satisfaction with distance learning in these two courses was measured by relating to their computer self-efficacy and spatial learning capability. The perceived usefulness of distance learning and students’ online engagement were tested as the mediator and moderator, respectively. This research showed that spatial ability skills play a significant role in students’ satisfaction with the distance learning of a studio-based course. In contrast, it is not significant for the virtual reality-based course.On the other hand, students’ computer self-efficacy directly affects the perceived usefulness of distance learning of the virtual reality-based course and indirectly affects course satisfaction. However, this relationship does not exist for the studio-based course.KEYWORDS: Virtual realitydistance teachingdesign educationvirtual garmentsvirtual fashion Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

ABSTRACTLogos are part of a brand’s identity, responsible for its recognizability and what it stands for. Research showed that buying products easily recognizable by others is associated with status and/or conspicuous consumption. This research aimed to determine the reasons behind consumers wearing logo clothes. Building on existing literature, it investigated how status, conspicuousness, self-monitors, self-esteem, materialism, brand loyalty, opinion seekers and leaders, and gender influenced wearing visually branded clothing. A conceptual model was developed combining these constructs. An online questionnaire was conducted amongst 206 individuals, and the model was tested using PLS-SEM. Results indicated that materialism, conspicuous consumers, and brand loyalty affected the decision to wear logo clothes, whereas status consumers, self-monitors, self-esteem, and opinion seekers and leaders were not significant in explaining the dependent variable. Future research could expand the research to different countries and age groups.KEYWORDS: Statuslogobrand conspicuousnessconsumer behaviourfashion AcknowledgementsPaulo Rita was supported by national funds through FCT (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia), under the project - UIDB/04152/2020 - Centro de Investigação em Gestão de Informação (MagIC)/NOVA IMS.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).
摘要商标是品牌身份的一部分,负责其可识别性及其所代表的内容。研究表明,购买容易被别人认出的产品与地位和/或炫耀性消费有关。这项研究旨在确定消费者穿标志服装的原因。在现有文献的基础上,该研究调查了地位、引人注目、自我监督、自尊、物质主义、品牌忠诚度、征求意见者和领导者以及性别对穿着视觉品牌服装的影响。结合这些构念形成了一个概念模型。对206名个体进行了在线问卷调查,并使用PLS-SEM对模型进行了检验。结果表明,物质主义、炫耀性消费者和品牌忠诚度对穿着标志服装的决定有影响,而地位消费者、自我监督、自尊、意见寻求者和领导者对解释因变量的影响不显著。未来的研究可以将研究扩展到不同的国家和年龄组。关键词:状态标识品牌显著性消费者行为时尚致谢通过FCT (funda para a Ciência e a tecologia),在UIDB/04152/2020 - Centro de investigationa o em gesto de informa (MagIC)/NOVA IMS项目下,paulo Rita得到了国家基金的支持。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。

ABSTRACTSustainability certification is one means to address environmental and social issues present in fashion supply chains, whilst bridging the knowledge gap between brands and consumers. However, despite increased urgency to improve social, ethical and environmental practices in this industry, little is understood about how ethical fashion brands currently utilise sustainability certification, in an increasingly saturated, and often unregulated, labelling environment. This study examines choice of sustainability certifications, certification process, and use of labelling, by a range of Australasian fashion brands who promote sustainability as a core part of their customer-facing image. The research identifies a five-stage framework for sustainability certification, as well as indicating failures of current systems relative to user needs. The study develops and offers a proposal for a standardised taxonomy of fashion sustainability labelling that could be adapted, irrespective of firm size, sales revenue of garment and textile types.KEYWORDS: Sustainable fashioncertificationNew Zealandfashion industrysupply chainchain of custody Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).
