COMPETITORS


Founded: 1882 Revenue: $400 million Headquarters in New York, NY. It was purchased by the ICONIX Brand Group Inc. in 1978. As part of the ICONIX brand, Danskin was purchased to fill their active wear gap. Dansking specializes on all types of activewear and dancewear, however their strongest line is their active and training lines. It targets to men and women aged 18-34 and is sold in several department stores across the US. It is credited with producing the first nylon bodywear in the 1950’s. DanskinŽ continues to be a premier brand committed exclusively to addressing the multi-faceted needs of today's active women and girls.



Founded: 1931 by Jacob Bloch Headquarters: Sydney, Australia Created during the pinnacle of the Great Depression when Jacob Bloch began making pointe shoes that made it easier for ballet dancers to stay en pointe. He outfitted most of the Russian ballet troupe and became the recommended supplier by most Russian ballet masters. The company later expanded to include dance apparel and accessories and now operates internationally through a network of independent retailers often attached to ballet and dance studios.



Founded: 1887 by Salvatore Capezio Started in: New York, NY. Capezio started as a cobbler and shoemaker for the met. His career kicked off when a famous polish tenor had a shoe emergency and Capezio saved his shoes before a show. His reputation grew and dancers started going to his shop to buy his shoes. Eventually stores like Neiman Marcus and Lord & Taylor began to stock his shoes and the business was passed along the generations. Anna Pavlova, Liza Minnelli, Fred Astaire and Bob Fosse are among his loyal fans. In 1952 they established the “Capezio Dance Award� to recognize grand achievements in dance.


QUADRANT



INDUSTRY ANALYSIS Size Range 2T to Children’s medium (2-8 years old) 2-4: 18-19” S 4-6: 19-21” Int 6-8: 21-22” Purchaser vs. wearer: Purchaser is not the wearer Frequency of shopping: Monthly to bi-monthly Wholesale price points: $ 4.08

Expectations

Quality: average. Lasts as long as it fits the wearer Fabrication: some fabrication. Fun, girly details. Fit: close to the body but still comfortable and practical to move around in. Children’s sizes. Craftsmanship: average Labeling/ branding: consistent with Lululemon but slightly different to reflect the new line. Matching box, tissue paper and tags


Types of Products

Finishes: ribbons, bows, gems, florettes Colors: pinks, purples, metallic Treatments: possibly starched tutus, layering of tulle Most popular details: satin or grosgrain ribbon closings Most popular findings: bows and ribbons

Requirements

Must be comfortable for the wearer and practical for ballet. Body conscious. Lasts for the amount of time the wearer can fit in it. Cute. Possible celebrity endorsement.


COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS BLOCH Wonderful pointe shoes. Leading provider of clothing and shoes for ballet since 1931. Strong, devoted ballet following many of which exclusively use Bloch. Used by major ballet masters all over the world. Provides both basic and trendy options for leotards, tutus and dancewear. Also provides activewear and dancewear to nearly every form of dance. High quality. Product lasts forever.

CAPEZIO Celebrity favorite. Better known for their tap shoes and their shoes in general. Provides good quality but basic and more technical leotards and tutus. Also provides athletic wear to figure skaters and a leading distributer of transitional tights. More popular amongst jazz, theatre and tap artists.

DANSKIN Great leotards and warm up clothes as well as other athletic wear. Very technical and basic but lasts well and great price. Leading provider of basic tights. Present in almost every dance trade. Also has yoga and activewear.


What they are really selling

Product centric vs. consumer centric: Bloch: both product and consumer Capezio: product Danskin: product

How do they differentiate themselves from their competitors

Bloch: devout Ballet following. Trendy and forward designed ballet wear. Worn by the best ballet performers. Aesthetically pleasing and new as well as practical. Capezio: High quality shoes. Stronger tap and jazz following. Good quality but basic dancewear that lasts. Celebrity following. Basic and technical. Danskin: appeals to nearly every medium of dance as well as yoga and other athletics. Basic and practical. Good price.


COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS Merchandizing strategy

Narrow vs. Broad: Bloch: Narrow range of product categories Capezio: Broad range of product categories Danskin: Broad range of product categories Deep vs. shallow: Bloch: Deep variations of one product category Capezio: shallow variation of one product category

Danskin: shallow variation of one product category

Customer service

Bloch: extremely helpful. Ensure you have the right fit and all the right products for your field of dance. Pays special attention to the fit of the pointe shoe as it is pivotal (tehe, that’s a pun… please delete this commentary before putting it into powerpoint) to their wearer’s ability to do their art. Helpful in regards to style as well. Capezio: also very helpful in regards to fit. Sales associates well versed in a wide array of dancer’s needs. Danskin: does not provide much customer service but also doesn’t necessarily provide bad customer service.


TARGET CONSUMER Bloch: the serious dancer. This dancer has probably been dancing since she was a child. They have since moved on to the more challenging forms of dance like pointe or modern. Very dedicated to their craft. Most likely ballet but could also be involved in ballroom, jazz, modern, etc. This customer wants quality but also wants to stand out. IT is likely that this consumer dances competitively

Capezio: This dancer wants to be taken seriously but wants their dance wear to be more technical and less trendy. More likely to be involved in tap or jazz but could also be involved in ballet or figure skating. More likely to explore multiple mediums of dance and may also be involved in theatre. May not necessarily have danced their entire lives but still take it quite seriously. Might dance competitively but also might not.

Danskin: The everyman. Danskin is omni-present in just about every form of dance as well as yoga. This consumer is more likely to be involved in dance for its health benefits than for perfecting the art for competition. The consumer needs basic dancewear that is comfortable and practical and at a cheaper price than its competitors. Generally worn only in studio or barre classes.


COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS

VISUAL MERCHANDISING STRATEGY Bloch: Their strategy is to make the customer to feel that they have a unique experience when purchasing dancewear. The stores create a timeless feeling, with its unique elegance to reflect an ambiance of a heritage brand.

Capezio: Their strategy is to show the customer all of the products by showing them on floor, since she might be recently exploring the art of dance and wants to play around different outfit possibilities. It is layout in category sections so the customer understands different outfit parts. Danskin: Their stragety is straight-forward and guides the customer to the basic pieces they need. They provide mix and match pieces to the customer so the can go, get and leave what they need.

MAINTENANCE & EXPANSION Demilulu is planning to maintain and grow by the hands of Lululemon nationally and internationally. While always maintaining Lululemon’s high quality, Demilulu will keep on with fashion and technological trends to adapt into new styles for the line. The brand will still rely on marketing to young mothers, which are the buyers but not the wearers. Demilulu will aim to bring Ivivva from Canada to the US in order to create a customer cylce from Demilulu, to Ivivva and then back to Lululemon. The ultimate goal is to create a love brand between Demilulu, Ivivva and Lululemon. So in a long term perspective, Demilulu’s buyers was once the wearer.
