This study explored consumers' Kansei evaluation of the color of plastic eyewear. The procedure included: (1) collecting over 400 plastic eyewear samples on Taiwan's market; (2) collecting emotional adjectives for describing the color of eyewear frames, (3) selecting one representative eyewear frame and 10 variation colors by four design experts, (4) selecting 8 representative emotional adjectives with Kawakita Jiro method, (5) conducting experiment with Semantic Differential method to record the subjective evaluation of the eyewear samples, (6) analyzing data collected with multi-variable analysis and principal component analysis. The results indicated that: the Red frame had the highest scores on "avant-garde", "strong" as well as "unique"; the Pink frame exhibited. "soft" feel; the Yellow frame showed "young" most; the Green frame demonstrated "vulgar" impression; the Indigo frame displayed the most "popular" and "rational"; the Black frame presented "traditional", "stable", "noble" and "formal"; while the Purple frame represented the most "sensational".
