After a dramatic rise due to the COVID-19 lockdowns, the growth of e-commerce sales in fashion has been slowing down globally since the gradual easing of restrictions around the world, and consumers have returned to physical stores.
While consumers still expect the convenience of e-commerce, they also seek the personal service and distinctive experiences that only physical stores are able to deliver. In this context, building an omnichannel presence has become paramount for fashion brands and retailers, even among digitally native direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands.
Leveraging tech for greater personalisation
Consumers favour brands that they feel listen to them, understand them and pay attention to their specific wants and needs. Savvy brands need to use digitally enhanced retail, digital tech and AI to create relevancy, foster loyalty and ultimately boost their bottom line.
Sustainability: An underlying force shaping retail
