Abstract

This research paper had a primary aim of investigating the relationship that consumers, in the fashion industry, had with marketing strategies that are present on social media. With social media and fashion being heavily influenced by status, it was interesting to see what the relationship between the two was like. It was insightful to look into four main areas where social media marketing is dominant in the fashion industry. These included direct adverts, influencer marketing, e-commerce live streams, and sustainable fashion.

A quantitative approach was taken to gather the information needed to carry out such an investigation. The use of a descriptive frequency analysis on SPSS software was used to display the findings and help analyse the results. This led to some surprising results, as well as highlighting opportunities for further study into the area of research. Although there were some unexpected findings in area, the research did have a lot of alignment to previous research conducted in a lot of areas.
