Also noteworthy is that consumers may prefer buying fashion accessories, such as handbags and footwear, because they offer a cost-effective way to update last season's outfits.
Said Peter T. Mangione, former President of the Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America: “Being a relatively low-cost fashion product with a high “feel-better-quotient”, footwear is bucking the trend of dismal retail sales in the US. The footwear sector is really doing better.”
Fashion Access, Asia's most international fair for handbags, footwear, travelware and lifestyle accessories, is organised by APLF and will take place from October 6 - 8 2009 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
