Guangdong, as a major economic province, has always been the benchmark for the development of China's garment industry.

At present, the garment industry in Guangdong is in the strategic development stage from "quantitative change" to "qualitative change". Under the industry, the industry is trying to explore breakthroughs and upgrading models of innovation driven and intensive development.
Differentiated competition strategy of local clothing brands
"Today's market competition is not only reflected in price competition and product competition, but also in brand competition and business mode competition. To compete with international fast fashion brands, local brands should pay more attention to product innovation, technological innovation and channel innovation. Bu Xiaoqiang, vice president of Guangdong apparel and apparel industry association, said.
Bu Xiaoqiang believes that the local brand clothing enterprises have recognized the importance of innovation, no fashion design, fast shipping and more sinks channels, it is difficult to compete with the international clothing brands in the domestic market.
Take YISHION clothing, the brand of China's ten largest casual wear brand as an example. In order to adapt to the market changes and consumer demand, YISHION has carried out a comprehensive transformation and upgrading in recent years in the aspects of design and research, equipment transformation, product quality and testing, and launched a market competition with domestic and international casual wear brands through differentiated competitive strategies. At present, YISHION can design nearly 20000 new models every year, and each quarter can design more than 5000 new models. Every day, there will be ten new models coming out. In order to achieve an invincible position in the fierce market competition, purity is a brand image with diverse styles and following the trend.
For the current competitive situation in the clothing market, Gao Xiaoshi, a senior industry researcher of foresight network, points out that the advantages of local casual wear brand enterprises are to understand more about the needs of local consumers, more familiar with the operation mode of the local commercial environment, a richer channel base and a broader mass base, especially the 234 line cities, and the above advantages are more prominent. Of course, there is still a big gap between local enterprises in terms of overall brand operation, retail management capabilities, supply chain efficiency and resource integration capabilities.
Gao Xiaoshi believes that the local enterprises that may win in the future casual wear industry may come mainly from two aspects: first, product positioning, target group positioning or channel positioning and the full differentiation of international brands; two, there are already good brand, channel foundation and management system, and conform to the competition of the industry, and actively seek new and changing companies.
Counter trend growth brings hope
The vast majority of people began to recognize the "exceptions" from Peng Liyuan, China's first lady. The "exception" quickly became red. It not only made the public see the strength of China's local clothing brand, but also gave China's clothing (12.14, -0.08, -0.65%) brand a chance to rise. The exception was founded in 1996 by Mao Jihong, the designer of China's local clothing brand. After more than 10 years of development, the exceptions, with its unique brand concept and value, have gone out of the way of "exception" in the high-end clothing brand market of local women.
Mao Jihong revealed that most clothing brands spend eighty or ninety of their time and energy on visual effects such as color and style, while "exceptions" spend most of their time and energy on product tactile.
Putting tactile feeling first is different from other clothing brands. When many local fashion brands imitates the fast fashion brands abroad, the "exception" goes out of a "slow classic" way of differentiation through unique brand concept, winning the respect of consumers at home and abroad, becoming the "exception" of Chinese clothing brands, and letting many local clothing brands see hope and opportunity.
Taking Gloria as an example, it chose to cooperate with Ali's "micro Amoy" to launch the O2O road. By placing active materials in nearly 100 stores, it attracted customers to scan the two-dimensional code to become Gloria's Micro fans. The number of fans in the 5 days increased by 200 thousand. Later, the O2O tools (websites, APP, WeChat, etc.) were used to attract users, and the "private custom" style mentioned above was adopted. The operation and maintenance will transform users into brand fans, continue to interact with fans, enhance viscosity, and send accurate messages to users to increase purchase rate.
At the same time, a number of local women's clothing brands in Guangzhou also revealed that orders for 2014 winter and spring 2015 increased by more than 10% year-on-year. In addition, from YISHION, it was noted that the order volume of its 2015 spring order meeting also increased over the same period last year.
"Some local Clothing brand The trend of growth has been seen as a turning point in the industry. Insiders revealed that, due to the timely adaptation of local garment enterprises to the market and changing strategy, the dawn of hope in the second half of the year.
