Trend Analysis and Assortment Planning
Trend Analysis and Model Stock: Familiarize yourself with the merchandise represented by the department you have selected. Conduct research (fashion magazines, fashion catalogues, etc.) so that you can present a trend analysis for the upcoming season. Provide citations.
1. First determine and indicate product classifications that you want to carry for your department. You should explain how/why you identified these classifications.
2. Select one product classification you want to work on in this project. You should name the classification you choose.
3. Determine a model stock for that specific product classification you identified in step 1-(2). The total number of SKUS for this classification should range from 50 SKUs to 150 SKUs. You should have at least three different styles. Indicate how much of your budget will be spent on this model stock and how much that means you can pay for each piece.
4. Conduct further research to determine specific styles, colors, and sizes that you want to carry for the product classification you have selected. Remember that the number of styles, colors, and sizes should be based on the model stock you have determined in the step 1-(3). You should name the kinds of styles, colors, and sizes you choose. You should also explain how/why you choose these styles and colors.
