Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find how fashion designers' personal experience and psychological process influence their design process. Especially, this study is to seek how flow, life satisfaction, personal expressiveness, and passion influence student designers' design process. We hypothesized that there will be significant differences in student designers' perceptions and design processes depending on their level of flow, life satisfaction, personal expressiveness, and passion.
