  8. The Fashion Cycle To understand the different phases, you must understand style, acceptance, and timeliness of fashions. • Style  is the particular look, shape, or type of apparel item. • Acceptance  leads to the style becoming a fashion. • Timeliness  occurrence at the right time

  9. Stages of the Fashion Cycle • Introduction Stage • Rise Stage • Peak Stage • Decline Stage • Obsolescence Stage

  10. Introduction Stage • Designs first previewed during fashion weeks are in this stage. • New styles, colors, or textures are first introduced. • A limited number of people accept these fashions. • Fashion leaders wear the styles, which are offered at high prices and produced in small quantities.

  11. Introduction Stage - Example

  12. Rise Stage • Manufacturers who copy new designer clothes will reproduce the styles as apparel that costs less by using less expensive fabrics or minimizing details. • Fashions become accepted by more people because they can afford them. • As consumer interest increases, additional manufacturers copy the fashion by adapting or changing some of the popular features. • Mass production reduces the price of the fashion, and more sales result.

  13. Rise Stage - Example

  14. Peak Stage • The fashion is at its most popular and accepted stage in the fashion cycle. • Merchandise is mass produced and distributed. • Prices are not necessarily at the lowest levels. • Popularity of a fashion can determine how long it remains at this stage, it can survive longer is the fashion becomes a classic. • Simple changes, like adding new details, color, or texture can keep the fashion at the peak stage.

  15. Peak Stage - Example

  16. Decline Stage • Consumers eventually grow tired of certain fashions and desire something new. • Consumer demand is decreasing. • There are so many fashion items available that they have over saturated the market. • If consumers still want to buy the fashion, they probably do not want to pay a high price. • Fashion retailers begin to mark down the price of the merchandise to make room for new designs.

  17. Decline Stage - Example

  18. Obsolescence Stage • The end of the fashion cycle. • Consumers are no longer interested in the fashion and find new looks, which signals the beginning of another fashion cycle. • The price of the fashion product may be low at this point, but consumers will probably not buy the merchandise.

  19. Obsolescence Stage - Example

  20. Where is this in the fashion cycle?

  21. Fashion Movement • The only constant in the fashion world is that consumers look for new fashions and desire change. • Fashion Movement  the ongoing motion of fashions moving through the fashion cycle. • Influences: Economic and social factors, introduction to new fibers and fabrics, and advertising techniques

  22. Old is New Again • Some fashions never seem to fall to the decline or obsolescence stages of the fashion cycle – they just cycle around again. • Example: Jeans • Boot-cut, Baggy, Low-Rise, Flare, Skinny, etc.

  23. Leading the Fashion Way • Fashion Leaders  the trendsetters, or individuals who are the first to wear new styles, after which the fashion is adopted by the general public. • Most often these people are celebrities or people that gain a lot of media attention.

  24. Theories of the Fashion Movement • Trickle-Down Theory • Trickle-Up Theory • Trickle-Across Theory

  25. Fashion Trend • Fashion Trend  the direction of the movement of fashion that is accepted in the marketplace.

  26. Trickle-Down Theory • The movement of fashion starts at the top with consumers of higher socioeconomic status and moves down to the general public. • As more people begin to wear the fashions, those at the top become less interested in the fashion and begin looking for something new.

  27. Trickle-Up Theory • Movement of fashion starts with consumers on lower economic levels and then moves to consumers with high incomes. • Athletic Apparel Style (Fitness became chic) • Hair Style (Mop Top) • Punk Style

  28. Trickle-Across Theory • Fashion acceptance among several socioeconomic classes at the same time. • Probable in the 21st century because technology allows designer fashions to be copied quickly and easily, making them available for all consumers.
