Fast fashion has benefited from the high inflationary period with Italian consumers seeking to save on clothing items upon their return to busier lifestyles. Nonetheless, while the pricing in these stores is attractive there is growing awareness and concern regarding the sustainability of the fast fashion industry.
Digitalisation is expected to remain a key aspect in the evolution of apparel and footwear specialists, with convenience playing an essential role for consumers.

Apparel and footwear specialists are chained or independent retail outlets with a primary focus on selling one or more of the following categories: clothing, footwear, and/or fashion accessories (costume jewellery, sunglasses, belts, hats, gloves, handbags, scarves, etc.). Apparel specialists include specialty apparel like wedding dress shops. Example brands include Primark, TJ Maxx, and Zara. Sportswear retailers, such as Adidas and Nike, are excluded from this channel and are included in Sports Goods Stores; this is due to the companies considering themselves sports companies as opposed to apparel companies.
