At the time of writing, the COVID-19 pandemic has inflicted many losses: human, social and economic. What we are now experiencing is an unprecedented moment of crisis in modern history. However, it is during uncertain times that companies often come up with new ideas, converting the crisis into an opportunity, and adopting a long-term vision of future challenges. This prolonged disruptive situation is creating profound changes in consumer behavior and how companies are responding to these changes—prompting a debate about the future of the fashion and luxury industry. There is a general feeling of rethinking luxury and driving it in new directions, considering which business models will be feasible and more relevant in the new normal. Tradition and responsiveness, two elements that have always characterized luxury companies, will both be required to face great challenges in the post-COVID environment. We see the pandemic acting as a divider between the old way of doing business and the new scenario that is taking shape, characterized by changing consumer behavior. Hence, in this report, we talk about a new age for fashion and luxury and will explore the main trends that will drive the industry in the coming months.

INSPECTIONNot For Reproduction COPY INSEAD 1 4948 It was the end of summer 1998. In less than a month, the first StyleLab fashion catwalk show would be held in London. Renzo Rosso needed to make tough decisions about the branding strategy of this new line and he needed to make them fast. StyleLab was the new upscale product line of Diesel SpA, the Italian casual wear company, famous for its cult Diesel jeans and controversial advertising. Diesel, one of the fastest- growing fashion companies of the 1990s, was number two in the jeans industry in Europe and had high expectations for StyleLab. StyleLab was designed to exploit growth opportunities in the emerging luxury segment of the casual wear market, competing with the likes of D&G (from Dolce & Gabbana) or Miu Miu (from Prada). StyleLab was also seen as a way to revitalize Diesel’s core brand, D-Diesel, which, as a fashion line, had to constantly reinvent itself to remain at the forefront of trends and styles.
