The apparel and footwear industry saw a 1.2% value growth in 2017, an improvement over 2016. But at 3.1% in 2017, volume growth outpaces value growth. The market is indeed being fuelled by volumes as fast-fashion continues expanding in emerging markets and North America, despite market saturation in Europe. The global market also offers various opportunities from the evolution of athleisure, to the reinvention of denim and redefining the shopping experience on and offline.

Denim’s reaction to athleisure

As consumers increasingly demand style and functionality at the same time, jeans manufacturers are innovating and reinventing denim fabric, to attract consumers accustomed to the comfort of sportswear. Conversely, denim is also having its own resurgence in its original more rigid style.

Childrenswear outshines the rest of the industry

Childrenswear continues to outshine both menswear and womenswear, benefiting from a mix of macroeconomic and social trends, including the rising middle class in emerging markets, and the “mini-me” trend on social media.

Increasing importance of sustainability

At a time when the political world is in turmoil, and social and environmental concerns are on the rise, consumers reassess their priorities. Resale and “slow fashion” have emerged as an alternative for consumers wishing to buy less in favour of more sustainable and ethical items.

Fast fashion will continue to shape the fashion industry

Despite sustainability being a major concern, and H&M’s recent woes, fast fashion still exerts a significant influence on both industry developments and consumers’ expectations, with major market players continuing to expand in key growth markets.

Retailing landscape shifts

As connected consumers disregard the conventions of traditional retail, fuelling growth in internet retailing, fashion players are increasingly looking to experiential shopping and personalisation to attract consumers’ attention.
