The coronavirus has changed a lot of things
in our society. The economy worldwide has been affected.
New jobs are rising, other jobs are
shutting down.
Online businesses are taking over now.
Shops are closing or running out of business.
The fashion industry is a vast industry
which has been affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Fashion designers are
closing up their shops. They are now switching to online platforms through
social media to advertise their products and get customers. Because during this
period everybody is online.
Here is my take on the future of the
fashion industry after the coronavirus pandemic is over:
1- More of online fashion shops will be
opened and stores will be closed
We have become used to ordering online
during this lockdown, and it's now part of our habits. Not just that. We have
seen that it does not cost much money to run online businesses as it is to run
stores where you will still get to pay utility bills monthly if you used them
or not. Also the salaries to pay workers have been reduced.
Technology will be more utilitied in the
fashion industry than ever, and the need for online presence will be high in
demand.
2- New style of fashion designing.
The coronavirus has taught a lot of
designers to be more creative in their style of designs as almost all fashion
designers are now designing face masks, clothes with face masks, as they have
seen the importance of health care of their customers nwhich needs to be put
into consideration when designing their wears.
It safe to say that designers will design
clothes now which help in aiding the betterment of their customers health than
to just focus solely on the the beauty of their designs.
3 - More patronage.
Many show have been postponed, cancelled,
shifted till after the pandemic is over. The moment the pandemic is over, all
this shows will come back to happen, and as such many people will request for
new clothes to go to this events and also to celebrate their survival of
coronavirus pandemic.
Many other things are going to take changes
in the fashion industry after the coronavirus pandemic is over. Some will be
bad and some will be good. However it is not a new thing now that technology is
now taking over all industries and line of businesses.
Thank you for reading.
