碩士 === 樹德科技大學 === 應用設計研究所 === 101 === Lacquer art represents the spiritual beauty of traditional cultures in Asia and has been researched and applied to create high value-added works as well as it has been mentioned as one of the heritage of the world. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to explore a unique view on lacquer painting by comparing its differences in Vietnam and it in Taiwan. Afterwards, I applied it in clothing design. I fulfilled my research based on the methods including data collection, investigation of process and implement of lacquer painting, observation and analysis of color and material. Additionally, the main materials, which are lacquer oil, color powder, egg-shell, shell pearl, gold leaf, silver leaf, were applied in my works. Moreover, I extracted a unique image, the crane standing on the back of turtle, from the traditional culture of Vietnam. It, standing for faith, was presented in the temples, pagodas, tombs in Vietnam and further transferred and applied in my works for the aspiration of longevity, intelligence and good luck. The results were shown that the best mixing ratio of lacquer oil, color power and banana oil is 3：3：4, and a preferable painting layer is 2 layers. Consequently, I can achieve a unique lacquer painting fabric with suitable softness and stretch. Finally, I completed my collection named “Eternal Passion” with total of 10 costumes and some related accessories.
