Fashion & Luxury Marketing

What a fantastic book! All key fashion marketing concepts, models and strategies are covered and directly applied to the contemporary fashion industry, making it a rare and valuable resource. A must-have for all students and lecturers across all fashion business courses! -- Dr Rosy Boardman
This book is a tour de force in explaining and framing the specificities of fashion and luxury consumption. It combines classic marketing frameworks, such as the 4Ps, with ones specific to the industry, such as the Fashion Marketing Mix. The book features a wealth of case studies that reflect a diverse cultural landscape of fashion and luxury consumption practices. -- Professor Benjamin G. Voyer
Solomon and Mrad do an excellent job of distilling the complex, global fashion system through clear examples and case studies. Readers will come away with a focused understanding of the nuances of fashion industry within the context of marketing. -- Joshua Williams
Written in an accessible style and illustrated throughout with examples and case studies, this book covers a wide range of business strategy and consumer behaviour content across historical and contemporary fashion and luxury, providing insights into fashion as both a dynamic global industry and a significant cultural phenomenon. The authors’ approach reinforces the need to continually analyse the marketing environment by highlighting shifting industry and consumer trends and provides discussion starters on how consumers think about fashion’s contemporary issues including sustainable fashion, ethical business, technological innovations and data privacy. -- Professor Natascha Radclyffe-Thomas
The fashion system has its own rules of communication and marketing and, moreover, is subject to rapid changes and transformations. This book explains the intrinsic link between fashion and luxury both by explaining it from a historical point of view, also through case studies, and by dealing with contemporary changes. The result is an in-depth work from a historical, cultural and sociological, as well as marketing, point of view. A section entirely dedicated to consumer choices and their motivations completes the panorama of topics covered. In short, a work that sheds precious light on the crucial sectors of the fashion system and luxury. -- Mauro Ferraresi
Finally, a fashionable book about fashion: a must read for those aiming for a career in the industry, but not only! -- Roberto Donà
This textbook is born canonical since it very successfully reconciles fashion and luxury marketing that have long been viewed as opposite if not contradictory. It provides extremely powerful insights to both students and practitioners since it covers with precise examples and illustrations all the stages of fashion marketing. By embracing the many sides of this complex phenomenon called fashion, this book invites the reader on an a rich historical, sociological, behavioural and managerial journey. A real tour de force that should be praised since it fills an obvious gap in the literature. -- Professor Benoît Heilbrunn
