Fashion Retail Safari is a curated selection of trends, industry insights and interviews from The Fashion Retailer blog in 2019.
The business of fashion changed from a product-centric approach to a customer experience, centric approach. Companies are investing in configurable ecosystems to be agile and flexible enough to compete with niche players and pure players in the digital era. The sequential and lineal made-to-stock model is broken. Forecasting and planning your sales 12 months in advance is only a way to increase leverage or increase financial debt. On the contrary, platform's ecosystems are fostering new agile collaborations instead of leading to higher structural operating costs.
New strategy and operating models focus on speed, agility and flexibility. In such volatile markets and risky seasonal business, technology is the enabler of this new model. As an example, the change of CEO at Nike (Mark Parker steps down in early 2020. John Donahoe, a tech executive will replace him) goes beyond a simple transition: it's a metaphor of how the retail industry is evolving.
Fashion Retail Safari collects thoughts and insights from 2019 focusing on:
- General Thoughts about the Fashion Industry
- Customer Experience and Segmentation
- Fashion and Technology or Fashtech
- Fashion as a Service or FaaS
- Sustainability
- Interviews with CEO and founders from startups specializing in AI, last-mile logistics or RFID

The aim of the blog was to explain how the artistic side – Fashion – merges with the scientific side – Retail – of the business of Fashion or Apparel.

With more than 100 posts, the blog is included amongst the best retail blogs to follow by Feedspot while its articles are mentioned in conferences, universities and thesis specializing in retail and fashion.
Alfonso Segura has 15+ years of solid experience in the Retail industry. Sociologist, IESE Executive MBA, fashion retail entrepreneur, consultant and business advisor. Specializes in areas like Business Strategy, Merchandise Planning and Omnichannel.
In 2017, founded The Fashion Retailer, awarded as Top 100 Retail Blogs, Websites & Influencers in 2018-2021 by Feedspot.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
