TargetMarket

With a range of contemporary and pop cultural ideas demographics show Jeremy Scott focus on clients who are motivated by self-expression and individuality and seek elation and adventure.As a luxury brand, Jeremy Scott appeals to youthful individuals with a mid to high income, and also celebrities and followers, artists, and people who work within fashion and entertainment industry. Jeremy’s target market agrees with the brand’s fashion statement that to stand out, to take risk, and to be surreal.

TrendForcastforSpring2020

The trend that will be accepted: Neon animal prints

Based on my observation in the retail and online stores, animal prints like leopard spots and zebra stripes has already popular in this season (FW 2019) and it gained the attention and affection of mass consumers.

In this collection, Jeremy Scott “not only draw inspiration from the most ’80s references of all, but to outdo the more-is-more decade on all fronts.”

He use a lot of vivid bold colors to combine with the animal prints which takes away the original thick, autumn and winter feeling of the animal prints, making it look more fresh and energetic.And it keeps the organic, fashionable shape of the prints, this combination can works really well in spring 2020.

TrendForcastforSpring2020

The trend that will be rejected: Puff blazer with colorful prints

As the jumping-off points of this collection, the 80’s animation “Jem and the Holograms” shows a punk rock characteristics. The blazer itself highlights the theme effect that the designer wants to However,express.compared to the daily wears, the silhouette of this blazer was too exaggerated and it is hard to keep the shape of it because of the cutting. For spring 2020, puff blazers will be inappropriate for most of the consumer because the weather condition is too warm to put on such a thick blazer. What’s more, the high contrast saturated colors is not easy to be accepted by the mass customers.
