In dieser Folge der Kassenzone diskutieren Karo und ich über das spannende Fallbeispiel MyTheresa, ein führender Akteur im Bereich Luxusmode im Online-Handel. Wir analysieren, wie die Plattformkriterien von MyTheresa in die heutige Zeit passen und welche zukunftsgerichteten Strategien das Unternehmen verfolgt, um sich im hart umkämpften Markt zu behaupten. Zunächst geben wir einen kurzen Überblick über die Geschichte von MyTheresa, die ihren Ursprung in einer Münchner Boutique hat und sich schnell zu einer globalen Plattform entwickelt hat. Dabei beleuchten wir die Entwicklung des Unternehmens von seiner Gründung bis hin zur Börseneinführung, einschließlich der Übernahme durch Neiman Marcus und der anschließenden Rückkehr an die Börse. Wir legen dar, dass MyTheresa sich insbesondere im Hochpreissegment mit einem Fokus auf Nachhaltigkeit und Exklusivität positioniert hat, was sich auch in der Kundenstruktur widerspiegelt. Im Gespräch stellen wir fest, dass das Unternehmen in Deutschland vor allem mit Breuninger konkurriert, jedoch international mit anderen Plattformen wie Net-A-Porter und Matches Fashion konfrontiert ist. Wir diskutieren die Herausforderungen, die MyTheresa gegenübersteht, insbesondere im Hinblick auf Marketingstrategien und Kundengewinnung. Hierbei wird deutlich, dass die Abhängigkeit von traditionellem Performance-Marketing und die damit verbundenen Kosten für die Kundengewinnung ein zentrales Thema sind. Ein weiterer wichtiger Punkt ist die Positionierung von MyTheresa im digitalen Luxusmarkt. Wir erörtern die verschiedenen Geschäftsmodelle, die MyTheresa verfolgt, und bewerten ihre Strategie zur Kundenbindung. Dabei glauben wir, dass die Erschließung neuer Kundensegmente und die Nutzung von Social-Media-Kanälen entscheidend sind, um die Reichweite in der entsprechenden Zielgruppe zu erhöhen.

In today's episode of Conversations with Founders, I sit down with Bonnie Langedijk. Bonnie is the founder of media platform HURS, a community centric platform which tells the stories of leading women, offering smart content through a style lens. As a founder, Bonnie's ambition is to fundamentally change the women's media landscape. It has been her innate understanding and connection to today's woman, that led her to the realisation that a digital home for women to connect and enable intelligent conversations over their love of art, design and style didn't truly exist outside of their own micro-communities. And so, HURS was born.Growing up in the Netherlands, creativity and storytelling were a part of Bonnie's life from day 1, with both of her parents working in the advertising industry. After studying International Media, she worked for several Hearst publications, before relocating to London. There Bonnie established herself as an in demand creative consultant and art director, working at NET-A-PORTER as Deputy Global Styling Editor as well as with a variety of other brands and media houses, from AERON to L'Officiel, Farfetch to Vogue Netherlands.Bonnie launched the media platform HURS in April 2022 and has seen tremendous growth. In this episode we dive into her journey to entrepreneurship, the HURS community and the plans for future expansion. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Through their investment firm, Imaginary Ventures, Nick Brown and Natalie Massenet have proven time and again the importance of their role in the consumer ecosystem. They understand better than most how difficult it can be to start a business from scratch, so they use their knowledge and resources to prop up promising young startups and get them moving in the right direction. And the status they've achieved as respected and influential stewards of growing businesses is well deserved. In her early career Natalie honed her skills predicting consumer trends as a journalist for Women's Wear Daily, eventually founding the massively successful high-fashion e-commerce platform NET-A-PORTER. Nick built his portfolio through a few really wise bets on some exciting up-and-coming brands like Warby Parker and Reformation, quickly garnering a reputation as the go-to-guy for fledgling founders. As self-described "generalist investors" Nick and Natalie's interest in potential partners is governed less by a specific genre—like fashion or beauty—and more by the character traits of the business leaders themselves, stating that founders need to have a well-balanced and open-minded approach to growing their business if they ever hope to be successful. There's a lot of really great insight here about the world of investment and retail in general, especially if you're an early-stage founder looking to make your mark.

The race offshore hollowed out the fashion and textile industries in much of Europe, the US and Australia. But if you happen to live there, chances are you've got amazing fashion skills on your doorstep but you just don't realise. While much of the infrastructure has disappeared, the talent is still there. And still coming through. When Yoox-Net-A-Porter execs visited Dumfries House, Scotland to see how The Prince's Foundation is working to inspire and upskill young people in the textiles area, they saw an opportunity: to support fashion graduates in luxury, small-batch production and produce a very special collection in the process. They called it the Modern Artisan project.This week, Clare sits down with Jacqueline Farrell, education director at Dumfries House, and three of the eight participants in this year's Modern Artisan programme - emerging designers Isabelle Pennignton-Edmead, Emma Atherton and Emily Dey.Who doesn't love a royal connection? So yes, The Crown, but this is really an Episode about process - how do the clothes we buy get made? What goes into it?If you can sew, could you do it? This is a lovely listen if you are studying fashion or want to. Or if you're teaching it. But everyone who sees designer gear only once it reaches the stores, should find this insightful.Love the show? We are proudly independent, and rely on our listeners to help us stick around.

Today on the show we are learning from Olivia (or Liv as I know her!) Koennecke, Founder of luxury pyjamas brand Maison Essentiele. Maison Essentiele creates luxurious home essentials defined by soft, fluid silhouettes and tailoring. Every piece in the collection is responsibly crafted using high-quality natural fabrics like A-grade silk, European linen and organic cotton, allowing you to elevate your morning and evening routine with their chic pajama sets and silky nightdresses. If you're in the fashion industry this is such an amazing deep dive on things you should be considering when it comes to capital, how to go about getting a retailer like Net-A-Porter and Bloomingdales, and her thoughts behind gifting high-priced products to influencers. I especially loved getting into the nitty gritty of the financials behind building a luxury brand. You wouldn't be alone in thinking that starting a luxury fashion brand would require a hefty bit of capital to get you off the ground. I sure thought so, but Liv really turned this on its head for me. “Because I had no capital to work with, it has always made me have a really lean way of operating. I've always had to be really savvy with my money, and be really creative to have done what I've done. This is the biggest lesson that I want to pass on to other business owners. You actually, to begin with, don't need a huge amount of money.” I just had to know the secret. When it comes to a logo, website, designing some packaging… There are so many great tools that you can use right now that are so much lower cost. Those are a lot more cost-efficient than agency packages. Outsourcing websites such as: Fiverr, Upwork, 99Designs, Writer Access, Total…In this way, you can pay by the hour or by the project, and save those pretty pennies for other areas of the biz. So smart. Let's get straight into it!

The Resale Edit: Weekly Edition #2-The hot news this week was Farfetch's option to acquire Yoox/Net-a-Porter from Brand House, Richemont. Richemont had to exit this business but Farfetch is the real winner. This is a game changer for Farfetch, already a leader in digital luxury, now folding in their largest competitor, Yoox/Net-a-Porter. The additional customer data and influence this gives Farfetch over luxury brands in both their direct-to-consumer and Farfetch Platform Services (FPS) should be concerning for luxury brands. From a resale perspective, FPS already includes some capabilities for brands to accept trade-ins and resell, although these capabilities have been fairly nascent to date. I expect Farfetch will be a resale player to watch in the future. Reflaunt, the B2B resale player that allows customers to list items in their account profiles on third-party marketplaces, closed an $11M funding round. Closing the fundraising in a difficult economic market illustrates interest in branded resale and maintains Reflaunt's relevance in the growing branded resale space. Mercari and The Real Real each published resale reports. The Mercari report rechecked the box that resale is big and growing in this case with parents, however, The Real Real (TRR) report included new data on emergent behavior in resale. Specifically "Since the beginning of the pandemic, we've seen two times as many people purchase something on The RealReal, then go back and re-consign it on The RealReal." While purchasing an item new or used is an existing behavior, trade-in or consignment is a relatively new behavior. TRR data point illustrates this behavior will become more mainstream as resale grows–customers will increasingly consider the resale value as a factor in the decision-making process when purchasing. This week had several stories about luxury bags as an asset class, including the way Gen Zs are fighting inflation–hmmm. Luxury bags continue to be an asset class just like art, wine, and more recently sneakers. Most Gen Zs can barely afford high-end art or handbags and very few are sitting around figuring out how to hedge inflation or invest for the future via handbags. Instead, this goes back again to customers considering the future resale value in their initial purchase. This is a significant change in purchase drivers, especially as luxury players are raising prices. Brands need a plan for how they manage their resale market. Finally, Vanessa Friedman, WSJ fashion editor, answered a question on the most sustainable options for back to work. She was right on point, “the truth is that there are no simple answers and definitely no perfect ones. Well, other than not buying anything at all.” If we are going to keep shopping we need a better model where shopping doesn't require commensurate growth in production- resale. All brands have the opportunity to lead the way and profit. The So What?1. Resale momentum continues. Brands need to take action to stay relevant and the sooner the better.2. Growth of resale will affect overall commerce as customers consider the future resale value as part of the initial purchase decision. This further cements the importance for brands to take control of their resale markets as part of their brand and pricing strategies.About Trove:Trove's Recommerce Operating System™ powers trade-in and resale for world-class brandsand retailers, delivering profitable and sustainable growth at scale.

However, shoppers have never been faced with the inflation we see today, leading them to find alternative ways to shop for designer brands in resale. Although resale companies create a fantastic solution for consumers, they still have to face the uphill battle of turning a profit. In 2022, More People Bought Vintage Clothes, ‘Flipped' Resale Purchases, and Shopped Indie Designers on The RealRealFashionistaIn its annual Luxury Resale Report, the platform looks at its customer data to identify upcoming trends, purchasing behaviors, growing categories, and popular brands in the resale market. As the resale market has continued to grow, more and more shoppers are turning to reselling (aka. flipping) than ever before. Specifically, Gen Z sees flipping as an investment or source of revenue, making it a business for themselves.

The store will allow customers to shop branded and non-branded vintage items from 70s, 80s and 90s trends.

Is Renting My Clothes Really the Most Sustainable Shopping Option?The New York TimesVenessa Freidman answers the question, “What is the most sustainable way to build a wardrobe?” in her column Ask Veness. Spoiler… there are only trade-offs, other than buying less or buying used (so long as it keeps items in use) Can Luxury Bags Be Smart Investments?Business of FashionAs top luxury labels raise prices and tighten distribution, designer bags are garnering higher prices at resale, with some styles from coveted brands retaining a significant portion of their retail value long after purchase.

With so many moving parts in the supply chain and the making of products at the end of the day, it comes down to what you value most.
