Editor's Notes
In fashion marketing, involvement refers to the extent of interest in the product category: apparel & accessories
We want to encourage this aspect of involvement through our marketing materials: e.g. communication campaign suggesting that every shape is beautiful: you are what you wear.
Thus, clothing is personally relevant for the consumer: makes the individual become involved in the product choice
Consumer interest in clothing:
Gives pleasure & enjoyment – hedonistic perspective related to involvement
Hedonics:
Suggests that purchasing experience may be more important than product acquisition
E.g. customers are more likely to engage in impulse buying when motivated by desires such as fun, fantasy, social or emotional gratification
Helps shape their image = means of self-expression – because of the symbolic product properties: vehicle that reflects self image and identity in both a personal and social context
Involvement:
Important because:
Consumers attach meaning to their clothes
Highlighted by the role of fashion in today’s society
Driven by:
Individual motive to use certain products to project a desired self-image
Linked to personal values & needs:
Use products to express and communicate our values to others
Values generate consumer goals and guide consumer making proceses
Important to understand the linkage between involvement & values (personal, economic, aesthetics)
