Asian Fashion Is Rising, European Prada And Other Luxury Brands Are Threatened.

After a long period of accumulation, the apparel industry in Asia has been constantly rising in the clothing market, occupying a certain share in the market. European Prada and other luxury brands are threatened, which will affect the sales of European brands.

In recent years,

With the rapid development of fashion brands in China and Japan, the support of Asian consumers to local original brands, and the change of European luxury brands' aesthetic fatigue and consumer attitudes, Asian fashion brands are gradually developing into a strong competitor of European luxury brands.

According to statistics, Asian consumers are the largest consumer groups in the global high-end fashion market, accounting for about half of the total consumer group.

Most of them are under the age of 35, familiar with the Internet world, and are very fond of finding niche people, typed and original brands.

These brands not only enable them to stand out, but are quite different from the fashion concepts advocated by their parents, fashion executives and retailers.

Experts believe that high quality is no longer the patent of Western European luxury brands. Asian fashion brands gain local manufacturing base to provide them with opportunities to try new textile materials and different fabrics. They are attracting people's attention.

The increasing attention of Asian fashion brands is no doubt adding to the Prada, Bottega Veneta and Tod's luxury brands.

The sluggish sales of luxury brands have long scarred them, partly due to excessive price increases and overexposure to consumers in the Chinese market.

Andrew Keith, President of Lane Crawford, said that Chinese fashion brands like Ms MIN and Comme MOI are fast - growing modern designer brands.

At present, the two brands are sold at Lane Crawford, and the Korean men's brand Woo Young Mi is also stationed at lac Crawford Lane Crawford, which is expected to be joined by Korean women's brands soon.

Ms MIN is the top fashion brand created by Liu Min, the famous Chinese independent fashion designer in 2010.

Liu Min graduated from the London Fashion Institute's women's wear course. After graduation, he worked as an assistant designer in Viktor &Rolf fashion house, and worked in PORTS women's clothing department.

Comme Moi is the personal brand created by Lv Yan, the first world-class model in China.

The brand opened its first boutique in Shanghai last October.

Over the past four years, Chinese brands have grown from 4 at the beginning to more than 30.

Andrew Keith, President of Lane Crawford, revealed that 20% of the Chinese design clothing purchased online is shipped outside China, mainly for Chinese consumers who want to acquire these brands.

According to statistics, the average age of mainland Chinese consumers is 25, while the average age of Hongkong consumers is 35-40.

Andrew Keith, President of Lane Crawford, said: "when you see China can develop its own creative community and emerge as a creative force, you can feel a sense of pride."

In addition, Japanese brands are also the main brands purchased by Asian consumers, such as Sacai and Tsumori Chisato.

These brands often have longer starting time than Korean and Chinese brands.

Designer Chitose Abe founded the Sacai brand in 1999, and has worked for Junya Watanabe for 8 years.

Due to the influence of Rei Kawakubo and Junya Watanabe style, the women's dress of Sacai is exquisite and charming, without losing the light and elegant characteristics of the material.

In 2009, Sacai launched the men's wear product line.

In addition to the two brands, the Japanese brand ROGGYKEI is also the fashion brand often worn by American pop singer Lady Gaga.

The brand was founded in 2006 by two Osaka Institute of design graduates, designers Hitoshi Korogi and Keiko.

It is noteworthy that Seoul, Tokyo and Shanghai are rapidly expanding the scale of fashion week. They are sponsored by local industry groups and show many new fashion brands.

Korean cosmetics have long been the concern of Chinese consumers. The Korean TV series "you from the stars" and "the descendants of the sun", as well as the Korean pop singer Big Bang and the girlhood era, are more conducive to improving the image of Korea and making it the fashion direction of Asia as a whole.

He pointed out that Asian consumers have accepted American culture, and Korean pop culture is closer to Chinese culture.

Jin Shengzhu Sung-Joo Kim, chairman and CEO of Korean luxury group Sungjoo and MCM group, said Korean self-esteem and self-confidence have been stronger by Korean culture, which is why South Korea and other Asian brands are becoming more and more popular.

Jin Shengzhu Sung-Joo Kim helped develop the Gucci brand Korean business. She pointed out that Asian brands could better cater to the petite features of Asian women compared with European brands.
