人口老化是全世界的潮流，台灣社會人口結構，也正邁入高齡社會，且台灣人口老化速度較歐美更快。人口老化現象是未來不可避免之趨勢，故服裝產業因應人口老化之消費結構改變，亦當長遠思考應對策略。嬰兒潮世代的婦女是最能意識到自己存在、富有而節省的世代，因此，因應人口老化的社會結構所形成的銀髮消費市場，服飾設計必須是能同時正確掌握社會和消費者的脈動，同時用一種符合消費者生活型態的方式定位去創新設計，這是本設計探討的研究所在。本設計研究以中高熟齡銀髮消費者為設計對象，利用智慧型電子化感測裝置且有傳輸系統，因而具有智慧化功能的服飾。設計結果顯示服裝設計產業應積極構思如何滿足此ㄧ潛力目標客戶時尚的需求，服飾，對她們而言，不再僅僅只要求舒適安全的機能性而已，能滿足此消費族群親自體驗其生活過程的產品是未來趨勢，提供調節式智慧型產品，人性本位的服務品質，這將是未來企業開創此商機所需積極共同達成的目標。

The aging population is the trend of the world, socio-demographic structure in Taiwan, also is entering an aging society, and Taiwan's population aging faster rate than Europe and America. Population aging is the inevitable trend of the future, so the garment industry in response to structural changes in the consumption of the aging population, also when thinking long-term coping strategies. Women baby boomers are the most aware of their own existence, rich savings generations, therefore, in response to senior consumer market, the silver-haired aging population social structure formed, clothing design must be able to simultaneously correct grasp the pulse of the community and consumers, at the same time in a manner consistent with the consumer's lifestyle positioning to be innovative design, which is designed to explore this study. The sample of this pilot study consisted of midlife and older women aged above 50. The design study is to use “Smart clothing” that is able to sense stimuli from the human body, to react to them and adapt to them by integration of functionalities in the clothing structure. Two components need to be present in the clothing structure in order to bear the full mark of smart clothing: a sensor and a transmission system. Also the smart clothing is possible, which is expected to be functional as well as fashionable. The smart clothing uses conventional materials and components and adapts the electronics design to fit in the external elements. It can be considered as e-apparel, where electronics are added to the clothing. Finally, smart clothing could be sold as a gadget, where the intelligent character will be more a clothing.
