ANTHROPOLOGIE REPORT

ur brand Fashion Collective specializes in dresses. We are showcasing our Fall 2014 line today in front of Anthropologies dress buyer. This line features fit and flare and shift dresses, both with sleeves and sleeveless. Anthropologie is the ideal retailer to carry our line as its target market is affluent women who range in age from mid twenties to early forties. Anthropologies website describes the brand as: a lifestyle brand that imparts a sense of beauty, optimism and discovery to our customer. For her, Anthropologie is an escape from the everyday; it is a source of inspiration and delight, where innovative merchandising, customer centricity and a curated array of products come together to create an unimagined experience. Anthropologie products are an expression of our customers appreciation for artfulness and good design. To that end, our buyers and designers travel the world to uncover special products and to collaborate with talented artisans. Our assortment includes clothing, accessories, shoes, beauty, home furnishings, found objects, gifts and dcor that exhibit influences ranging from vintage to global. (Urbn, 2013) This statement conveys exactly who we are as the Fashion Collective and for that reason we feel that Anthropologie is an excellent match for our Fall 2014 line.

Our inspiration for the Fall 2014 season is fall, feminine, floral, fun and flirty dresses for the 25 to 35 year old woman. She is a career woman with money to spend and no commitments. She values fashion, spending a high percentage of her income on it, and she always wants to look her best, no matter the occasion. Her Consumer VALS group is Experiencer. According to the Strategic Business Insights website, Experiencers are:

To do this we must build lifestyle environments that appeal emomotivated by self-expression. tionally, and offer fashion correct Young, enthusiastic, and products on a timely basis.
