Written by Mike Pollard | Aug 2, 2021 11:15:00 AM

The pandemic has completely changed the world of fashion and have made it more difficult than ever for businesses to predict trends. For this reason, fashion brands have had to work hard to stay ahead of the curve and completely revise what they thought would become popular before the pandemic.

Trends and Demand Forecasting

If you want to stay one step ahead of fashion trends, you should invest in an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software platform developed with the challenges and needs of your industry at it’s core – STYLEman365 ERP. STYLEman365 has all the functions and usability of a leading-ERP, with an interface and toolkit that makes it more relevant and valuable for businesses working in the fashion, footwear, and apparel sectors.

Responsive Supply Chain and Resource Management

Using STYLEman365 can help make your supply and product development models more responsive to market trends, allowing you to cut costs and waste, and to make more accurate demand forecasts. By understanding the analytics behind your business, you can see what ranks high with your customers and subsequently predict future trends. This is what is often referred to as trend forecasting - you take the existing trends, look at the commonalities between them and then predict what will be popular in the future.

ERP software like STYLEman365 makes this process incredibly simple, allowing your company to time your product launches, and pivot seamlessly between retail supply models. For example, one of the biggest changes that has happened during the pandemic is the complete cessation of high street retail. For many fashion brands that previously depended on bricks and mortar shops, having to quickly transfer their sales online was a huge challenge.
