Designer Fashion in Decline due to Online Shopping

Thursday, November 18, 2010
The Australian designer industry is in decline as Australian chain stores offer copycat designs at cheaper prices.

Savvy shoppers are now constantly wooed by online shopping which not only saves money but valuable time.   

To counteract this serious threat, fashion designers need to look at new ways to protect their designs and market their core values of quality and craftmanship. 


Each season fashion dictates  'what we should wear' however it is important to remember that real style doesn't come from following a trend, rather from adopting your own signature style.

Men Hate Shopping!

Saturday, September 11, 2010
Research reveals that Men subjected to extended shopping trips suffer from spikes in their blood pressure.

Men like to 'shop with a mission', let's buy it and then go home.  Women on the otherhand like to window shop, and consider, would it suit me, it does look stylish but do I need it etc.

Men grab the first item, and want to be in and out in 20 minutes.

Most importantly Men don't return from a shopping trip empty handed.
