The commercial value of re matching

Unexpectedly, this unusual fashion has been popular among many young people.

Why is Nasty Gal so popular with consumers and investors? Insiders say in an interview with reporters: "fashion is the key to increase customer stickiness."

It is learnt that every new product launched by Nasty Gal is built by professional designers.

According to the latest fashion trend, the products that professional designers strive to create are also assured of their real wearing properties while having a tidal flu. Their personality is not too ridiculous, ancient and modern, cute and sexy.

Simple and extensive purchase and sale mode

Nasty Gal may be more fashionable than you can imagine. Any new product sold on the website can be sold out in 3 minutes.

This makes the domestic fashion business providers far from being able to catch up.

"The domestic fashion business operators still stay in the simple and extensive mode of purchase and sale."

Lu Zhenwang, an e-commerce observer, pointed out in a blood interview when interviewed by reporters.

In the industry's view, the domestic fashion business operators, apart from copying the business models abroad, did not carry out the innovation of business mode. Fashion and innovation and creativity hindered the development of domestic fashion business.

In terms of fashion, professional designers and buyers play a vital role.

"But China is too short of professionals in this field.

Buyers need to do a lot of analysis. They can see some problems from the data, understand what size and color can sell well, which are all required of their abilities, and the less likely the experienced buyers are to make mistakes.

People in the industry lamented.

In addition to the lack of talent, the domestic fashion business is not fashionable. Brand support is also a big problem.

Lu Zhenwang pointed out: "the fusion of domestic fashion business and brand is not enough, and there is no strong support from the brand.

Because the brand of China's fashion e-commerce is higher and higher than that of China's consumption, and has certain requirements for enterprises. However, the degree of concentration of foreign brands tends to be in the middle and low end, the driving force of e-commerce is stronger, coupled with their own innovation and creativity ability can make a breakthrough.

The innovation of foreign fashion business is embodied in providing consultative dressing and collocation guidance for consumers, or matching individual needs. Nasty Gal combines these two ways to help consumers solve the way of dressing and personalized demand by rearranging and designing outdated clothes.

Foreign fashion providers also provide solutions for customers in a tailor-made manner, while the use of social networks also improves the taste of websites in the minds of customers.

"But the domestic fashion business is still in the initial stage of buying and selling," Lu Zhenwang suggested. "To break through the bottleneck, we must first solve the problem of how to enhance the brand's synergy, get the support of the brand to the greatest extent, and make innovations in services, enhance user interaction and stickiness through sharing, consulting or personality experience."
