And many more of your favourite brands.
Do you know what is the common factor between these big labels or brands?
They all started out as small brands and went on to become some of the most popular fashion labels in the world.
So what are you waiting for?
Aim to reach the “helm of the fashion world” by stitching the right “hemline” for your fashion brand.
Let’s see how you can do it with your fashion e-commerce website.
- Understand the Market and its Needs:
People are not waiting for just any run-of-the-mill cloth,
They are waiting for clothes that suit their needs and make them feel comfortable.
As a fashion brand, you can step into any industry vertical, starting from t-shirts to ethnic wear. But you have to understand what your target audience needs.
You have to research what they want to wear.
Is that a t-shirt which they can wear to their office or ethnic wear which they can pass off as something that can be worn to the pub?
Crazy, isn’t it?
But that’s how you should plan your fashion line and stitch it big in this industry.
- Identify & Target Potential Fashionistas:
For a fashion brand, it’s very important to know your target audience as it will help in curating the right set of clothing lines. Conduct thorough research on your target age group as it will help you reach out to them with proper designs that appeal.
Knowing your potential fashionistas will help you keep yourselves in “fashion” in an industry with changes with every “fall”.
- Draw a Suitable Business Plan:
Just as you can never stitch a cloth without designing it and cutting the required pieces, you can never sell a well-designed piece of cloth without a proper business plan.
Draw a suitable business plan that suits the industry vertical of your fashion brand. Plan out by deriving all the pros and cons along with how you are going to sell your cloth. It can either be an online e-commerce store or a physical store.
But you should devise a proper plan that starts from procuring the raw material to selling it to your preferred customer.
- Don’t just Design, create an Appeal:
Designing apparel has no limitations, but your design should also appeal to your target audience. It should make them come back to your online fashion store for buying any new collection that gets launched.
Along with the quality design, you should also give good quality material that makes your customers comfortable and lasts long.
- Choose the Right Manufacturer:
As mentioned above, you have to give your potential audience not only an appealing design but also the right quality of cloth. Hence, it’s very important to choose the right manufacturer for your clothing brand.
Understand your clothing line properly and research the kind of cloth and texture that will give the best feel. Tie up with the best manufacturer and negotiate well to land the best feel.
Choose the right manufacturer.
Settle for the best deal.
Not only design clothes but give your potential customers quality cloth.
- Price your clothes RIGHT:
299/- or 2 for 499/-.
You decide.
Price your clothes right because along with you, 99 other sellers will be selling t-shirts on their e-commerce website. Conduct proper research and make your product reasonable for that particular price point.
Provide the right product at the right price to attract a larger audience. Also, give attractive deals during peak shopping times.
Don’t create a “cart-filling” urge. Make them hit the “checkout” button sooner than later.
- Market your clothes RIGHT:
What does your cloth say?
Which emotions does your clothing line stitch?
Do they have a story of their own?
Any many other questions….
Fashion itself speaks of so many things, hence your clothing line should do too.
Take that story to the world in a unique manner and market your clothes well. Create not just an appeal with your design, but also with the story behind the design.
Market your clothing line through all channels such as Social Media Ads, Digital Marketing Campaigns, and other available means.
So, what’s stitched till now?
I guess we covered all the “stitches” required to make a great fashion label.
Follow the points mentioned above and curate a label that not just fits into the requirement, but which people carry with great confidence and comfort.
Make your “fall” interesting, appealing, and worth recommending to other people.
Next time the paparazzi ask celebrities, “Hey, what are you wearing?”, the celebrities must take your label’s name.
