Apparel’s Leaders Sum up Biggest ChallengesHave needed to be more promotional to drive sales
Source: Kantar Retail analysis and company reports 9
On Women’s Apparel challenges:
Ronald L. Frasch, President and Chief Merchandising Officer, Saks: “The customer … is very discriminating, and she is moving to where the fashion is and clearly letting us and the brands know that she's not going to buy something if it's not to her liking. So I would say we're probably in the middle stage into this, much more work to be done.”
On Teen Apparel challenges:
Thomas P. Johnson, CEO, Aeropostale: “Clearly, the teen sector is challenged, and I think it's a number of different things. One is the promotional activity is high, which you would think would induce more purchases. But what it basically does is lower everybody's AUR, so that's obviously challenging.”
Robert L. Hanson, CEO and Director ,American Eagle Outfitters: “AEO's women's business had the biggest miss to plan, comping down 9% in the quarter … we saw weakness primarily in core and core fashion styles”
“We believe that fashion always trumps weather.” —Urban Outfitters President and CEO Richard Hayne

Delivering in the Back Half:
― Shoppers are more confident and willing to spend than they were a year ago.
― Each shopping touch point will be important in driving traffic, conversion and return trips. Consistent and thoughtful execution is essential.
― Extending value beyond price by communicating and delivering on shopping experience, exclusivity, brands, and convenience will bode well with shoppers when they make destination decisions.
― Mobile is an important and profitable touch point, especially during holiday where routine browsing and pre-trip planning takes place.
Environment no less challenging but full of opportunities
