This week covers an overview of fashion, including textiles, clothing, accessories, cosmetics, eyewear, and jewelry. Participants will examine critical factors defining the success of leading Italian brands such as Prada, Gucci, and Dolce & Gabbana, as well as commercial international distribution chain stores such as Zara and H&M, and sportswear chain stores like Nike. Product placement via competitor analysis is also explored.
Week 3
The objective of Week 3 is to understand and identify different distribution channels, with a focus on e-commerce in fashion. Participants will study key marketing practices, including product lifecycle, function, and the definition of price points. Integrated communication explores key concepts in brand identity, brand image, brand equity, licensing, and the importance of branding. Participants will apply the knowledge gained in the previous weeks, using a vocational learning approach, to develop an individual marketing plan for a chosen designer or collection.
