European Streetwear Market

The European streetwear market is on a rapid growth trajectory, with a strong focus on youth culture, social media influence, and increasing interest in exclusive and high-quality fashion. Consumers are willing to pay a premium price for unique pieces that reflect individuality and social responsibility.

Sustainability in Fashion

In the past few years, there has been a major shift in consumer behaviour. An increasing number of shoppers are turning to brands that align with their values, especially when it comes to environmental sustainability. According to recent studies, over 60% of consumers now prioritize sustainability in their purchasing decisions.

Demand for Exclusive Fashion

Consumers are increasingly dissatisfied with traditional fast fashion and are seeking sustainable alternatives that still offer the style and exclusivity they desire.
