The rapid evolution of technology characteristics has significantly influenced various sectors, including fashion, in which technology-enabled platforms have increasingly been utilized to enhance personalization and consumer engagement. This study investigates the effect of these characteristics on consumer behavior within fashion curation platforms. Integrating the task–technology fit and the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology models, this study examines key constructs using structural equation modeling. Data were collected via a week-long survey of 300 Korean consumers using fashion curation platforms. The findings reveal that technology characteristics exert a significant influence on task–technology fit and effort expectancy. Additionally, hedonic motivation, social influence, and facilitating conditions were pivotal in shaping behavioral intention. The novelty of this work lies in the fact that it extends the integrated model framework to a fashion curation context to offer a more nuanced understanding. Moreover, the findings provide practical insights for optimizing technology-enabled fashion platforms to boost user adoption and engagement.
