We investigated the interactive effect of garment style and textile patterns on garment impression. We used eight textile patterns and three garment styles to generate twenty-seven simulated garment images: three images of unpatterned garments and twenty-four images of patterned garments. We then conducted a sensory evaluation of these stimuli using the semantic differential method. Eight images of textile patterns were also used in the sensory evaluation. A two-way ANOVA with multiple comparisons using the Tukey method indicated that when the impressions of a garment and textile pattern were different, the impression of the garment with that textile pattern was closer to the impression of the textile pattern. When the impressions of a garment and textile pattern were similar, the impression of the garment with that textile pattern was emphasized compared with the unpatterned garment. Our data indicate that the textile pattern has a more significant effect on the garment impression than the garment style. Thus, both the textile pattern and garment style affect the impression of a garment.
