The Project 
 
Coolhunters have traditionally roamed the streets, trendy clubs or art galleries, and from their
knowledge and intuition help fashion brands to set the trends for the coming seasons. It seems
clear that by this simple definition, we are not talking of a science; maybe it is an art itself, but
definitely not an exact science.


For us, the interesting concept around fashion trends and the social web is the consumer and
trends panel 2.0.


This project could be defined as a netnography study on Mango, the clothing brand. We have
researched the potential of fashion streetstyle web sites Lookbook.nu, Chicisimo.es and
Chictopia.com to create trends panels, in this case, within the clothing sector, trying to go
beyond existing panels that monitor the mentions on blogs, Twitter, Google searches and so on.
We want Coolhunting to become a scientific art.



About the data analyzed  
 

    •   We analyzed 3,160 looks uploaded at chicisimo.es, lookbook.nu and chictopia.com
        during June 2011 and with at least one garment by Mango tagged.


Data sources: chicisimo.es, lookbook.nu, chictopia.com, mango.com




Methodology 

For the development of this project we obtained 3,160 pics uploaded at chicisimo.es,
lookbook.nu and chictopia.com during June 2011, on one condition, we picked those which
were tagged with at least one garment by Mango. The split between the websites analyzed was
as follows:
    •   Lookbook (697)
    •   Chicisimo (744)
    •   Chictopia (1719)


After the extraction and refining process we came up with a total of 12,684 garments from many
different categories and corresponding to many other brands apart from Mango.

The Data Republic                                             Mango’s clothes on the streets  
 


From each look obtained and analyzed, we extracted the following data:
    •   Number of comments
    •   Number of rating points given by other users
    •   Country of origin of the users (75 different countries)
    •   Brands for every garment tagged (more than 1,300 different brands)
    •   Category of the garment tagged (69 different categories)


To compare the bias of this study regarding the reality of the presence of Mango in the major
countries analyzed, it is interesting to observe some data 1.0, comparing it with the data 2.0 that
we have collected.

Key issues 

Mango’s bags rock in Spain and Germany, but no news of them in the UK 
Bags are the most worn garments in looks where Mango is present both in Spain and Germany.
On the other hand, for British fashionistas, Mangoʼs bags are not so cool as they do not appear
among top-10 garments of looks uploaded. In the case of France, bags ranked in the 6th
position of Mangoʼs most worn garments. In the UK, Mango seems to be more successful when
it comes to dresses, as they were worn in almost 20% of looks with a Mango product. In the
case of France, this first position was occupied by shorts, followed by dresses, jeans and shirts.
For Spaniards, bags are clearly the coolest of Mangoʼs products, followed by shoes.

We can see how Mangoʼs most preferred garments change depending on the country, and most
of the times variations are not minor. We wonder if different preferences for Mangoʼs garments
showed by fashionistas do match with storeʼs sales in these respective countries.

Combining with Mango: a Zara vs H&M war 
Fashionistas wearing a Mangoʼs garment have it quite clear, in general terms, they like to
combine them with Zara or H&Mʼs clothes and accessories. However, whilst in Spain the
leading position of Zara is total, in France H&M is quite close to Inditexʼs flagship brand. On the
other hand, in Germany the leadership of H&M as top-combination-brand over Zara is out of
discussion. In the case of the UK, the British Topshop holds first position as the preferred brand
to combine with Mangoʼs garments, over H&M, with Zara occupying a less relevant third place.

Apart from larger clothing brands, it is remarkable the position of 2nd hand and DIY clothing in
the UK, where this type of clothes hold 8% of the total, whilst in Spain and Germany this
percentage does not reach half this figure.

In Spain, different brands by Inditex represent more than 35% of total brands, and the presence
of Bimba & Lola in the 9th position is the first case of small fashion brand combining with
Mango.

Dress, shoes and bag: the Spanish outfit by Mango 
For Spain, the percentage of Mangoʼs tagged garments is highly concentrated on just a few
categories. On the other hand, competing brands like Zara, H&M or Blanco show a more
balanced percentage of tagged garments.

For Mango, bags, jeans, dresses and shoes are almost 40% of total tagged products, in the
case of H&M, these garments represent 24%. Taking into account that the analysis has been
made upon all looks with at least on Mangoʼs garment tagged, this concentration seems to show
a specific usersʼ preference for a few certain items against other brands. For instance, in the
case of Blanco, even though the brand has lesser items tagged, these are much more spread
among categories.

These differences in the spreading of tagged garments among brands might be the evidence
that consumers decide which brands they purchase depending on the garment. They associate
their preferences on garments to brands.

 
Shoes and bags the most trendy garments for Spaniards
In Spain, fashionistas tag shoes and bags in a greater number than any other garments. This
has a positive and negative impact for Mango, as the brand holds a good position in the bags
segment but it is not one of the most tagged brand for shoes. From all shoes tagged in the
analyzed looks, Mangoʼs shoes only represent 9% of the total, against 24% by Zara, 20% by
Stradivarius and 15% by Blanco. Only H&M with 6% is ranked under Mango. In the case of
bags, Mango occupies second position with 12% of total, just behind Blanco, which represents
22%. Stradivarius holds 11%, Zara 7% and H&M 6%.

Blanco is performing especially well in some of the most tagged garments (shoes, bags, belts
and blouses), being one of the brands showing a fastest growth among fashionistas.

In the US, Mango goes with vintage/2nd hand clothes 
When analyzing the combination of Mangoʼs garments with other brands in the US, it is highly
remarkable the fact that vintage/2nd hand clothes stand in second place, almost holding the
same percentage that the leading brand Forever21.

Vintage and 2nd hand clothes are the most common among looks analyzed for several garment
categories such as accessories, belts and dresses. The presence of vintage and 2nd hand
clothes in the US is, by far, the most relevant among all other countries analyzed, especially
compared with Spain.

     
Philippines and Indonesia crazy for Mango’s tops 
Despite not being two of the countries with a higher number of Mangoʼs stores, Philippines and
Indonesia stand for second and third position in the ranking of Mangoʼs looks by country, right
above the US, France or Germany, and only behind Spain. The case of the Philippines is
especially remarkable as this country accounts for more of 16% of total looks with a Mango
garment tagged.

In the Philippines, tops are the most worn garment by Mango, followed at more than 10 points of
distance by dresses and bags. In the case of Indonesia, top garment by Mango is held by tops
as well, closely followed by jeans.

Trendsetters set the style 
Trendsetters stand out as a what-to-wear reference for many fashionistas, and at the same
time, they are increasingly becoming a key element for brands in order to analyze their impact
on social networks.

Among the Top 10 most rated looks with a Mango garment tagged, skirt is the item with a higher
presence. That is remarkable as among garments tagged by all the community of fashionistas,
skirt ranks just on the 6th position. However, in the case of Top 5 trendsetters (the 5 users with
a higher number of looks uploaded), bags, dresses, jeans, tops and shoes stand out as the
most worn clothes by Mango, showing in this case the exact same patterns to those showed by
overall fashionistas.

Therefore, we can see how those users who have a more active role in these fashion sites have
a strong influence over the rest of users, leading in many cases to set which garments and
brands are more popular and consequently more sold.

The Data Republic                                          Mango’s clothes on the streets  
 
Asian countries take the 2.0 lead 
Comparing the number of Mango stores located in those countries where more users have
uploaded looks, someone will find how Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia have a higher
percentage of looks uploaded against the number of stores located. In the case of Philippines
the comparison is shocking; 1.1% of worldwide stores but 16.2% of all looks uploaded. In the
case of Indonesia, 4.9% of looks for 1.1% of the stores. These figures might show how
consumers in these countries lack a larger number of Mango stores in their countries, or at
least, that they love Mangoʼs clothes in proportion more than traditional markets such as
France, Germany or the UK.

Apart from the Asian countries, where 2.0 presence of Mango is larger compared with physical,
Spain and the US have also a higher percentage of looks. However, in these cases, conclusions
should be taken with caution. Some of the web sites analyzed are almost exclusively focused on
Spain and for the US, traditionally, the amount of Internet users is higher. In any case, the
number of Mango stores in the US is pretty low.

How real people wear Mango’s clothes. A Data 2.0 research about fashion brands

  • 3. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets     The Project    Coolhunters have traditionally roamed the streets, trendy clubs or art galleries, and from their knowledge and intuition help fashion brands to set the trends for the coming seasons. It seems clear that by this simple definition, we are not talking of a science; maybe it is an art itself, but definitely not an exact science. For us, the interesting concept around fashion trends and the social web is the consumer and trends panel 2.0. This project could be defined as a netnography study on Mango, the clothing brand. We have researched the potential of fashion streetstyle web sites Lookbook.nu, Chicisimo.es and Chictopia.com to create trends panels, in this case, within the clothing sector, trying to go beyond existing panels that monitor the mentions on blogs, Twitter, Google searches and so on. We want Coolhunting to become a scientific art. About the data analyzed     • We analyzed 3,160 looks uploaded at chicisimo.es, lookbook.nu and chictopia.com during June 2011 and with at least one garment by Mango tagged. Data sources: chicisimo.es, lookbook.nu, chictopia.com, mango.com Methodology  For the development of this project we obtained 3,160 pics uploaded at chicisimo.es, lookbook.nu and chictopia.com during June 2011, on one condition, we picked those which were tagged with at least one garment by Mango. The split between the websites analyzed was as follows: • Lookbook (697) • Chicisimo (744) • Chictopia (1719) After the extraction and refining process we came up with a total of 12,684 garments from many different categories and corresponding to many other brands apart from Mango. 3   
  • 4. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets     From each look obtained and analyzed, we extracted the following data: • Number of comments • Number of rating points given by other users • Country of origin of the users (75 different countries) • Brands for every garment tagged (more than 1,300 different brands) • Category of the garment tagged (69 different categories) To compare the bias of this study regarding the reality of the presence of Mango in the major countries analyzed, it is interesting to observe some data 1.0, comparing it with the data 2.0 that we have collected.     4   
  • 5. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets     Key issues  Mango’s bags rock in Spain and Germany, but no news of them in the UK  Bags are the most worn garments in looks where Mango is present both in Spain and Germany. On the other hand, for British fashionistas, Mangoʼs bags are not so cool as they do not appear among top-10 garments of looks uploaded. In the case of France, bags ranked in the 6th position of Mangoʼs most worn garments. In the UK, Mango seems to be more successful when it comes to dresses, as they were worn in almost 20% of looks with a Mango product. In the case of France, this first position was occupied by shorts, followed by dresses, jeans and shirts. For Spaniards, bags are clearly the coolest of Mangoʼs products, followed by shoes. We can see how Mangoʼs most preferred garments change depending on the country, and most of the times variations are not minor. We wonder if different preferences for Mangoʼs garments showed by fashionistas do match with storeʼs sales in these respective countries.   5   
  • 6. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets     Combining with Mango: a Zara vs H&M war  Fashionistas wearing a Mangoʼs garment have it quite clear, in general terms, they like to combine them with Zara or H&Mʼs clothes and accessories. However, whilst in Spain the leading position of Zara is total, in France H&M is quite close to Inditexʼs flagship brand. On the other hand, in Germany the leadership of H&M as top-combination-brand over Zara is out of discussion. In the case of the UK, the British Topshop holds first position as the preferred brand to combine with Mangoʼs garments, over H&M, with Zara occupying a less relevant third place. Apart from larger clothing brands, it is remarkable the position of 2nd hand and DIY clothing in the UK, where this type of clothes hold 8% of the total, whilst in Spain and Germany this percentage does not reach half this figure. In Spain, different brands by Inditex represent more than 35% of total brands, and the presence of Bimba & Lola in the 9th position is the first case of small fashion brand combining with Mango.     6

  • 8. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets         Dress, shoes and bag: the Spanish outfit by Mango  For Spain, the percentage of Mangoʼs tagged garments is highly concentrated on just a few categories. On the other hand, competing brands like Zara, H&M or Blanco show a more balanced percentage of tagged garments. For Mango, bags, jeans, dresses and shoes are almost 40% of total tagged products, in the case of H&M, these garments represent 24%. Taking into account that the analysis has been made upon all looks with at least on Mangoʼs garment tagged, this concentration seems to show a specific usersʼ preference for a few certain items against other brands. For instance, in the case of Blanco, even though the brand has lesser items tagged, these are much more spread among categories. These differences in the spreading of tagged garments among brands might be the evidence that consumers decide which brands they purchase depending on the garment. They associate their preferences on garments to brands.   Shoes and bags the most trendy garments for Spaniards In Spain, fashionistas tag shoes and bags in a greater number than any other garments. This has a positive and negative impact for Mango, as the brand holds a good position in the bags segment but it is not one of the most tagged brand for shoes. From all shoes tagged in the analyzed looks, Mangoʼs shoes only represent 9% of the total, against 24% by Zara, 20% by Stradivarius and 15% by Blanco. Only H&M with 6% is ranked under Mango. In the case of bags, Mango occupies second position with 12% of total, just behind Blanco, which represents 22%. Stradivarius holds 11%, Zara 7% and H&M 6%. Blanco is performing especially well in some of the most tagged garments (shoes, bags, belts and blouses), being one of the brands showing a fastest growth among fashionistas. 8   
  • 9. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets           In the US, Mango goes with vintage/2nd hand clothes  When analyzing the combination of Mangoʼs garments with other brands in the US, it is highly remarkable the fact that vintage/2nd hand clothes stand in second place, almost holding the same percentage that the leading brand Forever21. Vintage and 2nd hand clothes are the most common among looks analyzed for several garment categories such as accessories, belts and dresses. The presence of vintage and 2nd hand clothes in the US is, by far, the most relevant among all other countries analyzed, especially compared with Spain.   Philippines and Indonesia crazy for Mango’s tops  Despite not being two of the countries with a higher number of Mangoʼs stores, Philippines and Indonesia stand for second and third position in the ranking of Mangoʼs looks by country, right above the US, France or Germany, and only behind Spain. The case of the Philippines is especially remarkable as this country accounts for more of 16% of total looks with a Mango garment tagged. In the Philippines, tops are the most worn garment by Mango, followed at more than 10 points of distance by dresses and bags. In the case of Indonesia, top garment by Mango is held by tops as well, closely followed by jeans. 9   
  • 10. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets             Trendsetters set the style  Trendsetters stand out as a what-to-wear reference for many fashionistas, and at the same time, they are increasingly becoming a key element for brands in order to analyze their impact on social networks. Among the Top 10 most rated looks with a Mango garment tagged, skirt is the item with a higher presence. That is remarkable as among garments tagged by all the community of fashionistas, skirt ranks just on the 6th position. However, in the case of Top 5 trendsetters (the 5 users with a higher number of looks uploaded), bags, dresses, jeans, tops and shoes stand out as the most worn clothes by Mango, showing in this case the exact same patterns to those showed by overall fashionistas. Therefore, we can see how those users who have a more active role in these fashion sites have a strong influence over the rest of users, leading in many cases to set which garments and brands are more popular and consequently more sold.       10   
  • 11. The Data Republic               Mango’s clothes on the streets     Asian countries take the 2.0 lead  Comparing the number of Mango stores located in those countries where more users have uploaded looks, someone will find how Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia have a higher percentage of looks uploaded against the number of stores located. In the case of Philippines the comparison is shocking; 1.1% of worldwide stores but 16.2% of all looks uploaded. In the case of Indonesia, 4.9% of looks for 1.1% of the stores. These figures might show how consumers in these countries lack a larger number of Mango stores in their countries, or at least, that they love Mangoʼs clothes in proportion more than traditional markets such as France, Germany or the UK. Apart from the Asian countries, where 2.0 presence of Mango is larger compared with physical, Spain and the US have also a higher percentage of looks. However, in these cases, conclusions should be taken with caution. Some of the web sites analyzed are almost exclusively focused on Spain and for the US, traditionally, the amount of Internet users is higher. In any case, the number of Mango stores in the US is pretty low.           11
