This study evaluated the clothing colors in the elderly. We took photos using the elderly as models, displayed them on a computer screen, and produced 75 colors of the clothing in the elderly using computer graphics. The 75 colors were evaluated by Japanese and Korean elderly women. We compared the ideal colors for and the colors actually worn by elderly people in Japan and Korea. Japanese and Korean elderly women differed concerning their ideal clothing color and their most often worn color. The images concerning clothing colors also differed between the two groups, suggesting differences in their views related to clothing. Japanese elderly women tended to view clothing as a means of expressing their individuality, while Korean elderly women tended to view clothing as a means of expressing their character. |
