Trend Forecasting
A $1.9-trillion market enters a creative reset — ~15 new creative directors, Pantone's serene white, purple ascending, and a materials economy under regulatory and resale pressure. The colours, silhouettes and materials to buy, make and back for 2026.
Consumer & Culture
Why the generation rewriting discovery, payment and resale will command 40% of US fashion spend by 2035 — $450B in spending power, a 94% brand-trust deficit, 62% resale participation — and what brands must do now to earn a share.
Market Intelligence
Sizing the $1.6 trillion personal luxury goods market — the China–US recovery divergence and what womenswear-led reinvention means for brands and investors.
Supply Chain & Sourcing
How the world's largest apparel production ecosystem is rewiring for speed, sustainability and digital control — the map, the shifts, and what it means for anyone sourcing from China.
Lookbook & Collection
A graduate collection proposal in Celine's brand codes — six looks of Parisian minimalism and quiet power, with full collection direction. An example lookbook produced end-to-end by the McLeuker AI platform.
Market Intelligence
China's $319-billion apparel market — one-fifth of global fashion revenue — has entered a zero-sum phase: domestic brands now hold 30%+ of top-20 turnover as foreign share slips. The Guochao surge, the Xiaohongshu and Douyin conversion gap, the returnee-designer pipeline and the strategic watch-list for foreign brands.
Market Intelligence
The single “Asia strategy” is over. Seoul, Tokyo, India and China are diverging fast — China's $854B fashion e-commerce, India's 10–12% CAGR to 2030, Japan's brand-loyal $15.7B luxury trajectory — and the winners in 2026 run four distinct playbooks, not one.
Market Intelligence
The $1.9-trillion global apparel market at a 4.1% CAGR — sizing, segmentation, growth drivers and the consolidation around mega-platforms and luxury houses, with the best-selling brands on Farfetch, Luisa Via Roma and Mytheresa and five actionable moves for brands and investors.
Social & Marketing
74% of Italian Gen Z research fashion on social before they buy — and maximalism has replaced quiet luxury as their dominant aesthetic. The platform, creator and content playbook for reaching them on Instagram and TikTok, built for SS26 / FW26 planning.
Consumer & Culture
American Gen Z buys value with proof; Chinese Gen Z buys identity with roots. A $227B market heading to $430B by 2034 has split into two structurally different consumer systems — 82% of US Gen Z planning to buy dupes against a ¥3-trillion guochao wave in China — and one global playbook now actively costs brands money.
Consumer & Culture
The channel physics, not the demographics, are what differ: TikTok, resale and AI discovery in the US against Xiaohongshu, Douyin and Dewu in China. Read across 24 primary and industry sources — $12.6T of Gen Z spending power by 2030, 40% of China's consumption already Gen Z-driven — with the seven moves that work in both markets.
Circularity
Resale is no longer a niche but a parallel channel reshaping how luxury is priced. $360B secondhand by 2030, growing ~3× faster than firsthand; $57.9B of that luxury resale in 2025. Market sizing, platform models, brand recommerce at Gucci, Hermès, Chanel and Richemont — and where Vinted's €10.8B GMV actually sits in the luxury race.
Strategy
There is no single best fashion school — only the one whose graduate pipeline feeds the job you want. Ten schools across four fashion capitals, sorted by career path rather than ranking: 2026/27 tuition, portfolio standards, application calendars and the real admissions procedure for each.
