Market Highlights

The global luxury fashion market is projected to be valued at USD 333,775.3 million by 2028, recording a CAGR of 3.59% during the forecast period. The global luxury fashion market has been growing over the last few years and is projected to reach USD 333,775.3 million by 2028 at a CAGR of 3.59% from 2021 to 2028. The significant reasons for the growth of the global luxury fashion market are increasing per capita disposable income, social media promotions and celebrity endorsements, and the growth of the organized retail sector in Asia-Pacific. Moreover, strategic mergers & acquisitions and increased demand for sustainable and recycled collections are expected to be prime opportunities for market players. However, a limited customer base and the rising threat of counterfeit products are expected to hamper the global luxury fashion market in the years to come.

Strict containment measures imposed by the governments of various countries and preventive measures to control the impact of the outbreak have led to significant restrictions in transportations, driving a knock-on effect globally. Transportation is crucial in the supply chain of any market, as it is responsible for transferring the raw materials to manufacturers and then distribute the final product from the manufacturers to the retail market. The pandemic had brought the transportation of goods to a near halt across the globe to stop the spread of the virus. The supply chain of luxury fashion products mainly includes specialty stores and e-commerce linked logistic suppliers. In these unprecedented times, low working efficiency and lockdown in various regions have witnessed delays in product delivery. Many logistics companies were operating at low efficiency with very few working staff, which led to the disruption of the supply chain. The low efficiency of e-commerce websites and logistics companies’ delivery systems and disruptions in international and modern trade has severely impacted the supply chain of the luxury fashion market.
