Cool Kids Fashion Shanghai 2016 to Address Surging Demands 20-22 July Shanghai, China
SHANGHAI, July 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- With new generation parents becoming a core group of consumers in the child, baby and maternity products market, children's apparel is becoming more stylish than ever. UBM China Baby Products Market Consumer Research Report 2015 finds that design is one of the most important factors taken into consideration when consumers purchase children's clothing.
The return of the 3rd edition of Cool Kids Fashion Shanghai 2016 held concurrently on 20-22 July wit CBME China 2016 sets to address the demand for high-end children's apparel with trend forums and fashion shows, by bringing together 70+ global fashion brands.
"The demand for the children's wear in China has shifted from fulfilling basic needs to pursuing fashion and style. Nowadays, Chinese kids want to look "cool" and "chic", said Aber, Marketing Director of Shenzhen Perseus Brand Management Co., Ltd., an exhibitor at Cool Kids Fashion Shanghai 2016. "We have therefore incorporated these elements into our products, which we are bringing to the showground," he added.
"With an upward-moving consumption pattern, differentiation by style, branding, and marketing have become more prominent. Low prices are no longer effective in securing market share; conversely, the ability to suit personal taste differences is getting more important," Pinky Lu, Product Center Director of Kidswant Children Products Co., Ltd. reckons.
Yanjing Wang, Procurement Manager of Baodaxiang Shopping for Kids Group Co., Ltd. says, "China's kids fashion market currently sees a fierce competition. Brands are constantly pushing out new products and the new generation of consumers are more interested in style, brands and value for money."

DUCK (Hong Kong), CCILU (Japan), COCOLICO (France), LAB BY BABY (Korea), Metro Kids Company (Portugal), MIM-PI (Netherlands), OVERKIDS (Italy), RIA (Spain), SHADEZ (Switzerland) and Tip Toey Joey (Brazil). The event will bring together distributors, department stores and property developers, franchisees and fashion buyers, to meet their various needs and find trends.

One of our highlights is the Romantic Lace collection. Adopting the colours of cotton candy, the products are both exquisite and interesting."
