Abstract

The fashion industry is being transformed, as once valuable brands find themselves being increasingly commoditized. As the middle price point brands change their differentiating strategies, the effect percolates to the top designers as well, forcing everyone in the industry to carefully examine the evolving nature of advantage in the market. This response is certainly going to be influenced by college graduates entering the industry. Thus, education for students preparing to enter fashion industry will need to entertain a vast array of data analytics technologies.
