Abstract: | This article takes a look at the shopping behaviour of the mature consumers. The objective is to examine two things: how female consumers (> 45) buy fashion clothing and their shopping preferences. The results show that retailers focus on the fashionable young consumer and have a lack of understanding of the mature consumers. This is important because mature consumers will become more and more significant to the fashion industry for the next decade. |
