The solution of this problem has been one simple question. Wich dress do you want me to product? The so much talked about “feed back” in marketing. The fashion industry now has a new consumer behavior to follow and, of course, to explote. This is a evolution for prosumer. To be the brand’s consumer and producer. Modcloth exposes 61 designs to vote. The consumers are invited to leave comments and post it after on his facebook or twitter. If that design finally gets into production, they receive and e-mail notification as soon as it’s available, allowing them to be the first to buy and wear it.
