TL;DR
This study investigates how physiological and emotional responses relate to clothing comfort, focusing on fabric and fit, to improve garment design for enhanced wearer satisfaction.
Contribution
It introduces a novel approach linking physiological and emotional parameters to clothing comfort, emphasizing fabric and fit effects, which is unique in the field.
Findings
Heart rate correlates with comfort levels.
Fabric and fit significantly influence emotional responses.
Physiological and emotional data can guide better garment design.
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to find the true comfort of the wearer by conceptualizing, formulating, and proving the relation between physiological and emotional parameters with clothing fit and fabric. A mixed-method research design was used, and the findings showed that physiological indicators such as heart rate are closely linked with user comfort. However, a significant change in emotional response indicated a definite relationship between different fabric and fit types. The research was conducted to discover the relation between true comfort parameters and clothing, which is unique to the field. The findings help us understand how fabric types and clothing fit types can affect physiological and emotional responses, providing the consumer with satisfactory clothing with the suitable properties needed.
