PROSPECTS

Designer tights trend pushes hosiery sales

Tights have seen a resurgence in the fashion world. Fendi, Gucci, Balenciaga, Richard Quinn and Saks Potts have all created their own variations of statement tights, whether they be colourful, floral, lacy, netted or logo-splashed.

Sports and athleisure continue to drive growth in socks

Sports apparel and footwear and athleisure continued to grow in 2019 as consumers became more concerned with living healthier lives overall. Today’s consumers want their clothing and footwear to perform, offering them the flexibility to be healthy and comfortable while on the go and accommodate the more hectic schedules of modern life.

Sustainability is a growing concern for tights

As consumers become more environmentally-conscious about the negative impact of mass consumption, they increasingly look to buy fewer but longer-lasting items. More brands are innovating to cater to this demand, thereby facilitating a shift from traditional hosiery to items that are of higher quality and/or made more ethically.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Marks & Spencer maintains its leading position

Due to its long-standing reputation among UK shoppers for its high quality and affordability in both lingerie and hosiery, Marks & Spencer Plc remained the leading player in hosiery in 2019. Despite this, Marks & Spencer lost further value share in 2019 as the increasingly popular Primark Stores Ltd continued to grow as a result of its competitive prices, trend-driven offerings and fast restocking and collection changes.

Innovative players gain hosiery value share

Women’s hosiery has long been geared more towards disposability and fashion rather than function; therefore, hosiery has lagged in terms of design innovation. However, more innovative players, such as Happy Socks, are entering hosiery, disrupting the demand for traditional tights and facilitating a shift in consumers’ mindset and expectations.

Sustainable players emerge

To cater to the broader consumer concern about sustainability, which continues to grow, brands such as Swedish Stockings, which was started in 2013, have begun to garner attention. Swedish Stockings makes its tights exclusively from recycled nylon with zero waste.
