| Hand out from "The Trend Boutique" |
We attended the future labs meeting where the economy was discussed. I found this interesting as it addressed what consumers would be looking for in garments, a higher quality than before the recession so that they last and also showed us that we shouldn’t be aiming towards the middle class as well as showed us more about our consumers. I found this really interesting since it is future trends and this will still be relevant when we come out of university especially since we are expected to double dip and have another recession. It also told us skills that we needed to develop as individuals such as garment construction since people are looking for a higher quality and also simpler clothing since they won’t buy items simply because they are embellished and they want them to be multi-functional.
