How Product Drops Keep D2C Brands Profitable
By

For decades, fashion followed a wholesale model, with brands serving as the creative houses and the retailers holding most of the power in the customer relationship, marketing and selling products and collecting data on consumer preferences.

As customer loyalty to individual brands plummets, though, companies’ focus has shifted to trying to be “the next Supreme,” said Matt Falcinelli, CEO of TheDrop.com, a marketplace platform that aggregates and curates streetwear for millennials and Generation Z.

“The consumer is a multibrand consumer, they’re shopping different brands, they want different brands, they want to match different brands,” Falcinelli said in an interview with PYMNTS’ Karen Webster. “But the brands want to be direct to consumer. They want to be mono brands, and the consumer is multibrand, and this is a huge issue in a $200 billion market.”

TheDrop, he said, can help bridge this divide, providing direct-to-consumer (D2C) margins for the

The avant-garde fashion fans making resale more than shopping
By

Almost two years on, it’s clear that the pandemic ushered in a seismic shift in how we interact with fashion. Since the implementation of lockdowns worldwide, internet shopping has become the most prevalent way that we buy our clothes. In particular, buying and selling pre-loved luxury pieces has become the side hustle du jour. Depops popped and Instagram shops opened their digital doors to a whole new market of youths desperate for a bargain piece of fashion’s past. 

In particular, this desire has been driven by the proliferation of ‘archival’ fashion Instagram accounts. Moodboards with runway images of obscure brands from the 1990s screenshotted from Tumblr, or Comme des Garçons campaign imagery nicked from Pinterest, have become one of the most common ways we interact with fashion imagery. And to accompany this growing interest, some savvy people have worked out that you can capitalise on this particular trend.

Emily Johnson said she doesn’t know what to expect for Small Business Saturday, but with a 2-month-old clothing boutique in downtown Las Vegas, she heard it’s been called “Santa Saturday.”

“This being our first Small Business Saturday, we talked to other business owners in the area,” said Johnson, owner of For the Love, LV. “They all say that it’s a wonderful day.”

Excitement is high among local businesses this holiday shopping season as many look to recover from a tumultuous year marked by temporary forced shutdowns, capacity restrictions and even watching friends — fellow entrepreneurs — have to shutter their businesses.

Jamie Schwartz, director of industry and business engagement at UNLV’s Office of Economic Development, said she also anticipates a strong turnout at Small Business Saturday, noting that the pandemic changed how many consumers viewed small businesses.

“We saw local businesses
having to shut down, not able to
do business,
