    A Discussion of a Luxury Apparel Brand Strategy in an Emerging Market: Conceptual Model with Network Perspectives Rachaya Kaolawanich1, Hiroko Oe1, Yasuyuki Yamaoka2, Chih Yuan Chang1 1Bournemouth University, UK 2The Open University of Japan [email protected] Abstract Keywords luxury brand; apparel; Vietnam, This study explores the Burberry apparel brand’s position and its network perspective strategic behaviour seeking new customers in the new market. This exploratory research pays particular attention to business potential and opportunities in an emerging market, Vietnam. To evaluate Burberry’s strategies and the potential, the collaborative network relationships are discussed in details, that is followed by the discussion of the key themes for Burberry to consider in the Vietnamese market, where Burberry has recently begun expanding its businesses. The outcome of the study suggests that the Western luxury brand apparel needs to understand the targeted markets’ systems and consumer behaviour, from there it is inevitable to design strategic plan how to engage the stakeholders in the ubiquitous supply chain relationships. In the end, a conceptual model with network perspectives is proposed: The model will be an analytical framework with key agenda items for the luxury brand which aims to enter the new market, and also the research limitations and further research opportunities are discussed.

  • Company Profile
    COMPANY PROFILE JUNE 2015 INFO FILES • The Prada Group • Creativity and manufacturing • Raw materials • Logistics • Distribution • Licences and Joint Ventures • Prada Group figures June 2015 www.pradagroup.com 1 “Careful observation of and curiosity about the world, society, and culture are at the core of Prada’s creativity and modernity. This pursuit has pushed Prada beyond the physical limitations of boutiques and showrooms, provoked an interaction with different and seemingly distant worlds, and introduced a new way to create a natural, almost fashionless fashion.” Miuccia Prada and Patrizio Bertelli June 2015 www.pradagroup.com 2 THE PRADA GROUP Prada was founded in 1913 by Mario Prada, Miuccia Prada’s grandfather, in Milan. Located in the prestigious Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Prada was an exclusive, stylish store selling luggage, accessories and luxury goods, in fine materials and of sophisticated workmanship. The Milan store quickly became a firm favourite with the aristocracy and the most sophisticated members of the European elite. In 1919 Prada received the warrant of “Official Supplier of the Italian Royal Household”, and since then has been entitled to display the royal Savoy coat of arms and figure-of-eight knots alongside the company logo. Miuccia Prada and Patrizio Bertelli started working together in the late 70’s, laying the foundations of the international expansion that was to come. Patrizio Bertelli broke new ground in the luxury goods sector, introducing a new business model in which he kept direct, internal control over all processes, applying uncompromised quality criteria across the entire production cycle. Miuccia Prada’s creative talent and avant-garde approach attracted the attention of the global fashion industry, while her ability to look at the world from an unconventional vantage point allowed her not only to anticipate, but quite often, to set new trends.

For the AW19 runway season, the 23-year-old, loved by casting directors for her wide, expressive eyes and cool, cropped hair, walked a colossal 25 womenswear shows for brands including Miu Miu, Tommy Hilfiger, Marni and Matty Bovan, and has been featured on some of the fashion industry’s THIS IS the FUTURE most influential top newcomer lists. Raised in Walthamstow, northeast London, she trained as a dancer, before committing to modelling. Her ballet background shows in her lithe frame, upright posture and easy catwalk strut. ‘I was scouted as a pre-teen, but was too shy to follow it through.

  • Where Disruptive Technological Innovation Meets Luxury Fashion PICBE | 740
    New approaches to customer experience: where disruptive technological innovation meets luxury fashion PICBE | 740 Jacqueline-Nathalie HARBA Bucharest Academy of Economic Studies, Bucharest, Romania [email protected] Abstract. Consumer behavior is shifting radically with the rise of e-commerce and new technologies. As a result, luxury retailers are forced to embrace a variety of technologies to keep their customers engaged. How do brands captivate shoppers and provide the customer experience that will satisfy their desires? Through dissemination of literature and case studies on examples from the industry, this paper presents a detailed discussion on the new approaches to customer experience in the luxury fashion industry, in the context of a modern economy that is highly shaped by disruptive technological innovations. The discussion includes two detailed case studies, focusing on two key themes that define contemporary customer expectations: the story – discussing customer’s desire to be immersed in the narratives behind catwalk collections, and the experience – discussing the use of technology to create a unique retail space through the use of online and mobile specific technologies. The first case study focuses on how new technologies provide brands with new opportunities to present their products through narratives. Using famous luxury retailers Dior, Givenchy and Prada as examples, the case study provides a detailed discussion on the use of virtual reality and augmented reality as tools that enable customers to project themselves into the story behind a catwalk show and become active characters in the narrative, through the use of technological devices. The second case study focuses on the importance of merging the online and the traditional brick-and-mortar store.
