Fashion fans and consumers are quickly getting used to the new industry formula; ‘see now, buy now’ – today, consumers have all the information, products and services at their fingertips, the latest fashion news and collections are no exception. This raises the bar for how designers communicate with their audiences, especially during Fashion Week; they need to ensure they share the right content, at the right time via the most appropriate channels.
