TOPIC

Taking into account a partial economic recovery, global fashion sales in 2021 could be -15% comparing to 2019. Online consumption will grow by 20% this year, sustainability or inclusivity will continue trending and new business models such as DNVBs will keep on thriving. The current state of Women's Fashion is raising questions we are willing to consider with IADS' members.

The next IADS merchandising video-meeting is dedicated to Women's Fashion (ready-to-wear, excluding shoes and accessories). We would like to proceed to a panorama of members' changes in brands portfolio and offer and new initiatives taken in this category. We hope to be able to help members share their vision, as well as to address the consumer habits shift and its consequences.
