How important are brands when shopping? Brands play a big role in the fashion business. For fashion manufacturers, brands and their image are the greatest value. But fashion labels are not the only incentive to buy. A survey on price and brand awareness in Germany shows that more than half of consumers pay more attention to the price than the brand when buying clothes.
