Executive Summary There are different types of arthritis that exist, each containing different symptoms but most of which include swelling and tenderness of joints. As time goes on, these symptoms get worse and can not be cured. Our clothing brand gives a solution to women struggling with arthritis by providing clothing that works with their joints in a way that makes it possible to independently dress themselves. The morals of our company stand out to us in the sense that we think it’s important to make women feel included, especially when it comes to fashion. In order to do this,

we plan on making magnetic and velcro closures and zipper pulls to treat arthritis in hands/knees. While doing so, we will also give our customers the options of fashionable clothing that they can mix and match with other styles in our collection. By succeeding in this, women in our demographic will be able to dress themselves with ease without having to settle for just basics.

IN ADDITION TO THIS PRIMARY MISSION, WE PROMISE TO MAKE CLOTHES FOR OUR CONSUMERS THAT CAN ENCOURAGE THEM TO LOOK AT OUR CLOTHES AS NOT JUST A FASHION STATEMENT, BUT SOMETHING THAT PROMOTES SELF CONFIDENCE

INDEPTH INDUSTRY ANALYSIS Adaptive clothing is a growing market with several different areas of disabilities that aren’t being touched upon in-depth. Big brands like Tommy Hilfiger have tried to throw themselves into adaptive wear, but they are still missing some key components in their designs. Many adaptive clothing brands bite off more than they can chew by incorporating too many disabilities at once, which often dilutes the aspect of adaptive clothing.

Focusing on one disability will allow for an in-depth collection that caters to all the needs of a specific disability. Arthritis is a disability that is often overlooked and is the top reason people in America are disabled according to PhysicianWeekly.com. There are two main types of arthritis: Rheumatoid and Osteoarthritis, however, Rheumatoid arthritis often occurs in younger women rather than older women.

Rheumatoid arthritis is caused when a person's immune system attacks their joints causing damage and deterioration. New drugs that have been FDA approved for the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active Rheumatoid Arthritis such as AbbVie's upadacitinib (Rinvoq) 15 mg, once-daily oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor. Other popular FDA approved drugs for Osteoarthritis as well as Rheumatoid Arthritis include Celebrex, Meloxicam, and Diclofenac. There are many symptoms of arthritis such as joint pain in hands, knees, hips and lower back, along with inflammation, pain, and stiffness. All of these symptoms can impact the way a person is impacted daily and lasts a lifetime.

According to a study by the year 2040 it’s estimated that 78 million people will have some form of arthritis. Unfortunately, with the rise of technology use people are suffering from arthritis in hands, wrists, and thumbs. As of 2019, 23.7 million people say that arthritis impacts their daily lives causing difficulty while trying to do daily tasks. Focusing on women with arthritis is important when it comes to adaptive clothing because about 26% of women have arthritis according to cdc.gov.website. Studies have opened up people’s eyes when it comes to arthritis, but there are still many things that are untouched like trendy and fashionable adaptive clothing for people with arthritis, which is what our brand, Indidress, plans to do.

Baby Boomer s

Target Market

The generational cohort that our target audience is a part of is the Baby Boomers generation. This generation was born between 1944 and 1964 and currently ranging between the ages of 55 to 75 years old. The majority of this generation is retired or will be retired in a few years. Baby Boomers carry some high expectations for their retirement including things like exotic trips and new experiences. However, some Boomers have put these dreams on hold because of various financial issues. Some are still in the workforce while others struggle to pay crucial expenses like medical and housing bills. The average Social Security check is $14,000 a year, hardly a cushy retirement. Only 38% of older boomers expect a pension. As for personal savings, most boomers have not saved nearly enough. In fact, 45% of boomers have zero savings for retirement, which is causing the dilemma of returning to work or staying at work. A few contributing factors include failed investments during the Great Recession and living longer, making retirement costly for today’s retirees.

An April 2018 Gallup poll found that 41% of people plan to work past age 65—a 27.5% increase from 1995. For this generation, the majority of the time, their intention is to either earn an income or to fulfill a sense of self-worth, which is why most retiring adults plan to maintain some form of employment.

With that being said, the most common reason people keep working is to prolong a needed income and maintain health coverage, with the newest wave of Medicare beneficiaries choosing to stay in the workforce and pursue their passions. By either cashing in retirement accounts or selling homes, boomers are finding the money to chase whatever dreams they have for themselves or their families. According to the article, Baby Boomer Spending Habits in 2020, studies have shown that one-third of employed boomers ages 67 to 72 years old have postponed retirement. In fact, what is interesting to know is that as the workforce continues to age, by 2024 we can expect 25% of workers to be 55 and over.

There has been thought that a recession is in our near future, in fact, many economists believe the next recession will come by the 2020 election. Baby Boomers would be one of the first generational cohorts to be negatively impacted by the recession. Having a fixed income already puts restrictions on baby boomers’ disposable income causing them to not spend excess money on unnecessary luxuries. Being that the predicted recession is near, baby boomers will be watching their spending habits closely, which will negatively impact clothing brands like Indidress and our competitors.

1) EILEEN FISHER Eileen Fisher focuses on making clothes for women in our target

market of 55 and older. Compared to Indidress, Eileen Fisher has a strong brand identity and product assortment. Indidress differs by offering clothing for this demographic that caters to arthritic needs.

2) TOMMY HILFIGER ADAPTIVE Both Tommy Hilfiger Adaptive and our brand are fashion-forward adaptive clothing brands that make independent dressing easier and trendy. Indidress differs because it

focuses on women in the Baby Boomer demographic that will use our clothing to better adapt with their arthritis.

3) J.JILL J.Jill is a brand that focuses on clothing that has simple closures or can be easily pulled on. Unlike Indidress, J.Jill is not known for adaptive clothing and therefore lacks innovative closures that could elevate their pieces to be more “user friendly” and cater to women who would benefit from adaptive clothing.
