Not surprisingly, the market of clothes and accessories on the web is growing steadily. According to eMarketer, the sector revenues reached US $ 54.2 billion in 2013. This is almost 21% of all web sales last year. In this area, the largest percentage of annual growth - estimated to eMarketer, in the next 3 years it was 17.2.
The target audience of online establishments - people with non-standard appearance, which is difficult to pick up the clothes in the store. In addition, it fashionistas with "exclusive style."
But as practice shows, customers Internet studio - (!) It's mostly men between 30 and 45 years, managers and business people with a good income. They have no time (and uninteresting) to go shopping, and noblesse oblige look respectable.
We should also mention about the popular service Etsy, the principle of which is similar to the concept of an Internet company. There's also a user does not buy ready-made thing, and met with a portfolio of handmade-master and orders him what dreams. Unlike online-studio is that the buyer does not use a constructor and relies entirely on the imagination of the master. But when it comes to clothes, the user, can usually send the order to the executor individual measurements. More on Etsy here.
However, the main feature of Internet company - the ability to order clothes on the individual sizes. It is ideal for a tall, thin, or, for example, fat people.
But experts see this as not only an advantage but also a problem. Not everyone can properly take off measurements (even with detailed instructions). As a consequence - refunds, dissatisfaction, negative reviews.
