With the digital development of museum exhibitions, college students ' demand for participation in fashion exhibitions has received increasing attention. Based on the summary data of 51 valid questionnaires and 3 retained semi-structured interview data, this paper uses descriptive statistics and thematic classification methods to analyze the participation preferences of college students in exhibition content, interactive experience and digital and physical integration. The study found that the students paid attention to the design concept, material technology and cultural narrative, showed interest in VR / AR, virtual fitting and hands-on experience, and most preferred the combination of digital and physical learning methods. Based on this, this paper puts forward suggestions on content planning, interactive experience and digital resource integration, so as to provide reference for the exhibition management of art museums.
