In Japan’s Ginza it’s the same thing — I think it’s a symbol of the Japanese dream,” Yanai, chair- man, president and chief executive officer of Fast Retailing, said at a press conference. “Being able to open our newest and largest global flagship store in Ginza…is really the most exciting thing [possible].” The executive said the store is aiming for annual sales of 10 billion yen, or $119.94 million, which he admits is an ambitious target.

This time last year, we were filled with dread, anxiety, and a paralyzing fear of what the pandemic would bring and how it would affect us. Sure, there’s still plenty of anxiety to go around, but it feels like we know now the challenge we are facing. We’ve lived with it and through it, and we are seeing the art and creative world make the most of it. That is what we’re celebrating this spring in our first-ever New Era issue. The trials of 2020 have given rise to impassioned causes, reinvigorated practices, and louder calls to action. The pandemic has forced us to address political, social, racial, and environmental issues because life is not carrying on as usual—it can’t. And, as is always the case, artists, designers, and makers are leading the way. Last summer, over the July Fourth weekend, rafa esparza and a collective of over 80 artists took part in the public project “In Plain Sight,” which skytyped messages calling attention to immigrant detention. The Los Angeles–based artist will continue to address America’s culture of incarceration and violence against Black and Brown bodies with a new series of work this spring, while also providing a space for healing and reflection.

To stay ahead, organisa- tions seek exponential innovation - the power to shape disrup- tion for strategic advantage’ (Deloitte, 2019). This report draws on comprehensive research from industry marketing and managerial processes and delves into a thorou- gh enquiry of Homophobia within the wider community as well as within industry. This report moreover looks to contemporary issues and the subsequent trends that have arisen, to inform the proposed innovation for Comme des Garcons and Dover Street Market, both of which Rei Kawakubo holds sole proprie- torship over. Fundamentally built upon strategy reconstruction and marketing collaboration as the foundations for this proposed innovation; this report explores the gaps in Comme des Gar- cons strategy and how these opportunities can be catered to. The conclusive aim for this report, is to develop a clear un- derstanding of how crucial it is to authentically represent the LGBTQ+ consumer and the importance of Streetwear taking a stand against anti-LGBTQ+ attitudes. 1 Contents page REPORT FOCUS 3 - 6 Introduction Methodology RESEARCH ANALYSIS 7-12 External audit Streetwear analysis DEMOGRAPHIC 13-18 ANALYSIS Consumer analysis Demographic segmentation BRAND 19-22 ANALYSIS Brand audit Brand histroy COMPETITIVE 23-24 ANALYYSIS STRATEGIC FIT
