A Panel Debate on Fashion and New Media

How can fashion designers and SMEs use digital media to grow their businesses? Websites such as Net-a-porter and Figleaves have proven the power of e-tailing, with impressive online sales. The innovative SHOWstudio, a showcase for new design talent, has created a loyal community online. FCUK has tried mobile marketing and DAB (digital audio broadcasting) with moderate success. Thomas Cook is selling holidays through iTV – is it possible that, in future, fashion brands might also be available through the red button?

A year on from the Cass Creatives debate on the future of the fashion industry, we’ve invited commentators from the original panel to join other leading practitioners in reviewing the opportunities and threats posed by new media – what are the latest marketing and distribution technologies? What are the newest ways in which the High Street is being re-invented online? And how is increased personalization now changing the customer-retailer relationship?
