So for many 2023 looks set to be a tough year. Independents will undoubtedly need to be at their creative best use their ability to quickly adapt to meet the challenges ahead. We know though just how resilient this industry is. New independent bricks and mortar stores are springing up taking advantage of empty units and circular fashion is being adopted in a variety of forms by both brands and retailers.

So what better time to discuss ‘the business of KIDS Fashion’ during this AW/FW trade show selling season.
