2. Evolution of the Fashion and Luxury Market in Vietnam
2.1 Historical Background and Market Transformation
Vietnam's fashion market has traditionally been dominated by local designs and affordable, mass-market clothing. In the past, the country's fashion scene was largely characterized by tailored clothing, small boutiques, and traditional wear such as the "ao dai" for women. However, with the economic reforms known as "Doi Moi" introduced in the late 1980s, Vietnam opened its doors to foreign investment and global trade. This period marked the beginning of a transformation in the Vietnamese fashion market, gradually leading to an influx of international brands and the emergence of a more sophisticated consumer base.
2.2 Recent Growth and Market Size
The Vietnamese fashion and luxury market has grown rapidly over the past decade. The fashion market size in Vietnam was estimated to be approximately $5 billion in 2021, with an annual growth rate of around 8%. The luxury segment, while still emerging, has also seen substantial growth, particularly in urban centers like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. The market for luxury goods, including apparel, accessories, and jewelry, was valued at around $900 million in 2023, with expectations to reach $1.5 billion by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 6-7%.
In addition, the fashion apparel sector alone is expected to grow from $3.8 billion in 2020 to $6.4 billion by 2025, according to Euromonitor International. This growth is attributed to increased consumer spending, economic recovery post-pandemic, and a burgeoning interest in fashion among younger demographics.
