Research Topic

General

Understanding consumer behaviour in the tops, loungewear, and casual wear categories across multiple global markets. This study aims to evaluate wardrobe preferences, purchase journeys, fabric perceptions, and category shifts across different audience groups.

Tops cover at least the chest, but which usually cover most of the upper human body between the neck and the waistline.The bottom of tops can be as short as mid-torso, or as long as mid-thigh.

Loungewear is comfortable, relaxed-fitting clothing designed for wear at home, though more stylish versions can be worn out for errands or casual events. It is a category between pyjamas and athletic wear, prioritising softness, loose fits, and comfort for activities like relaxing or lounging. Examples include soft pants, hoodies, t-shirts, and robes, often made from breathable fabrics.

Casual wear is comfortable, informal apparel that is not worn for formal occasions like business meetings or ceremonies. It emphasises comfort and personal expression and includes items like jeans and t-shirts. It is distinct from more formal categories like "smart casual," "business casual," and "formal wear". Casual wear is a broader category that may cross over into tops and loungewear.
