Dongdaemun Fashion and Supply-side Management

Image
  We often discuss whether the source of any fashion product is a design lab and a sewing factory, or a market to meet consumers. The issue of debate is whether it is a push on the supply side or a pull on the demand side. In fact, accounts differ.   Of course, designers’ creative designs, production in sewing factories, and supply and shipment to the wholesale market are made according to the consumer needs or preferences, and their desires.

Quality Itself is Advertising, and Its Promotion

Image
  From the growth of water-intensive cotton, to worker’s low wages and poor working conditions, the environmental and social costs involved in fast fashion business are widespread.   In this situation, consumers in global market are concerned about the vicious cycle of overproduction leading to overconsumption. In particular, they are willing to spend more on quality products than fast fashion products at low prices.   Like large discount marts that have maintained market competitive advantage for a generation, global SPA brand companies have set up a business strategy that sells at everyday low price instead of doing a seasonal sale.   Under the side effects of fast fashion, however, many fashion consumers do not wish to shop at low prices. If the quality is superior despite high price and gives a certain economic burden, consumers prefer such product and are willing to purchase again. In the global market, the behavior of consumers is changing.   I...
