The marketing, promotion, and communication of fashion is entering an
extremely dynamic, fast moving, and challenging phase. This book will
put the consumer at the heart of the process, looking at how to develop
a brand with which they can form an immediate connection and how to
select, use, and combine the tools available to communicate the brand
message. Advertising campaigns, both traditional offline and online, are
discussed together with the existing and new methods of PR and
promotion. Individual chapters then look at social media, e-commerce and
online fashion retail, personal selling and offline fashion retail,
direct marketing, fashion shows, and sales promotions. The final chapter
looks at how to cost and assess the effectiveness of each method of
promotion and communication.
Illustrated throughout with campaigns in all forms of media, the book
also includes case studies and interviews with leading professionals.
