Highlights
2010 will continue to be a challenging year, however faced with weak comparatives and higher levels of inflation we forecast growth to return to the clothing market in 2010. Rising just 1.8%, higher taxes and weak wage growth will result in consumers being reluctant to spend despite feeling a little more confident in making discretionary purchases.
Smaller retailers including Republic, Ted Baker and H&M have outperformed the clothing market and have managed to grow their market shares through 2009, despite the economic climate. While they are not the cheapest fashion retailers, offering good value for money through range, service and store environment has helped drive their success.
Smaller clothing retailers are often unable to compete on price with their larger competitors so must offer customers a clear reason to make a purchase. Developing a unique design handwriting or investing in own label ranges are ways of doing this.
