Kids fashion in particular is one segment of the market that is highly affected. Clothing and accessories selection is not only in the hands of parents these days, but kids have strong opinions on what design they prefer. Kids fashion brands are challenged to come up with more appealing, fashionable yet comfortable designs for this target market.
The fair will be held during July 19-21 July in Shanghai, China.
