Overview of the winter wear market in Europe
Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the winter wear market in Europe to grow at a steady CAGR of around 2% by 2020. Product innovations pertaining to winter clothing will be one of the primary drivers for this market. Manufacturers are constantly making changes in winter clothes and footwear in terms of quality, raw materials, designs, and textiles used. They are also focusing on the development of unique features in their outwear lines such as winter coats, gloves, and boots. For instance, Nike has introduced a new workout gear called Therma-Sphere Max, which is designed to be used in cold temperatures. Also, several vendors are marketing and launching their winter products through celebrity endorsements. With the vendors offering end-of-season sales and the availability of heavy discounts on winter products, the winter wear market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years.
Seasonal launches of new winter collections of apparels and footwear will be a key trend spurring the growth of this market. Several vendors showcase their new collections through autumn/winter collection, and fall/winter collection. For instance, ZARA's autumn/winter collection introduced new winter coats and tailored trousers with color pop leather skirts and distressed denim. Moreover, the vendors are increasingly using social media platforms like Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter to increase their brand visibility and attract more consumers.
