Against the backdrop of the strongest consumer market in over a decade, supported by near 50 year-low unemployment, robust consumer spending and strong 18 year-high consumer confidence, the 2018 holiday season brought healthy results for a select number of retailers, particularly those executing a strategy designed for the new world order of retailing. It also amplified the ongoing narrative of the industry’s big getting stronger – one of the themes highlighted in this paper. Despite this reasonably positive setting, we have entered 2019 amidst market volatility, a nascent trade war with China and the prospects of a slowdown in global growth, particularly in China and Europe. Any combination of such factors could once again cloud the retail sector picture and challenge retailers less prepared for change. With an eye towards these developing factors, we evaluate the trends shaping retail today and spotlight the critical themes we believe will impact retail deal-making in 2019.

In the time frame of ten weeks, we have gained great knowledge about the luxury industry in general and luxury brands operating in China, in particular. Additionally, we have acquired a deeper understanding on how to conduct an academic research. We would like to thank our tutor Harald Dolles who has been of great help with assistance and guidance along the construction of our thesis. School of Business, Economics and Law, June 2011 ____________________________ ______________________________ Jessica Wan Xi-Er Dang 2 Abstract Since the economic reform of China in 1978, the country has been under a process of industrialization and modernization. The average household income has risen, where the proportion of middle-class households, earning more than RMB 3 500 per month, has increased. In addition, there is a great share of the „China elite‟, which consists of the upper middle-class and the very wealthy. Due to China‟s enormous market of 1.3 billion people and the growth of wealthier households, the country has become the largest market for luxury. Many luxury brands are established in the market today, some with a greater presence, others more limited.

Cruising Past Spring: Resort’s Importance Overshadows Runway By WWD Staff PARIS — For a season originally inspired by vacations, cruise is certainly working overtime. Indeed, the season has so far eclipsed runway collections in scale and growth that some are questioning the logic of the current international fashion calendar, stopping short of demanding an immediate upheaval.

    ZoneModa Journal. Vol.10 n.1S (2020) Essays S.I. Be Cool! Aesthetic Imperatives and Social Practices https://doi.org/10.6092/issn.2611-0563/10572 ISSN 2611-0563 Shanghai Fashion Week: A Socially Engaging Mass Entertainment Event with a Professional Infrastructure Zhe Wang* Published: May 20, 2020 Abstract This paper uses a cultural event in the global fashion ecosystem that has been largely ignored, the fash- ion week, as an entry point to elaborate on the explicit cultural characteristics of Shanghai Fashion Week (SHFW) alongside the significant rise and construction of the Chinese design and fashion cul- tural system in the past five years. Under the structural interconnectedness between art and capitalism in the global fashion industry, together with the drive of the socialist ideology of the public owner- ship of the means of production in China, SHFW is now showing discrete cultural characteristics, absorbing as much knowledge as it can from the legitimate fashion week system and incorporating this in the domestic industry context. This paper also argues that SHFW has built up an interactive and dynamic infrastructure or ecosystem within the domestic fashion culture, enhancing its socialist characteristics with the intertwining of a core professional fashion week and a mass carnival event. Its deep engagement with both the general public and professional insiders is a unique cultural charac- teristic that distinguishes it from Paris Fashion Week and London Fashion Week.

The city of Turin represents a pit stop for fashion beginners, addressing, in that way, to emerging fashion designers who work in a very exciting environment finding inspiration from the new trends and innovation released by the city and from the huge tradition the territory has from the very past, with his famous Italian textiles’ brands and manufactures companies.

This ambitious event restored to the city of Turin its fashion image, without competing with other Fashion Week, but creating a very personal identity. It’s addressed to the huge crowd of designers, textiles’ labs and manufactures companies who live here, that contribute to create the identity of the city: an innovative smart and dynamic city oriented towards innovation, design and fashion with a deep attention to technology development.
