Synopsis
Returns in clothing and footwear are significantly higher than in any other sector – at £2.1bn in 2015 – over three times the size of the next largest sector, electricals. We forecast clothing and footwear returns to reach £3.5bn in 2020, achieving the highest growth across all sectors. With shoppers often buying across many different brands, the issue of fit and sizing is the key reason for customer returns in clothing and footwear. Despite retailer investment in offering more sizing information and improving product images and video catwalks, it is still difficult for retailers to accurately convey quality, look and fit online. The use of virtual fitting room technology by providers such as Virtusize can offer shoppers the support and confidence they need to make purchases.
