Background:
Fashion is a very dynamic field and has been significantly growing these past few years. The Ministry of Creative Economic and Tourism 2019 data shows that fashion has become the biggest contributors for creative economy in Indonesia ($ 9 billion), followed by craft ($ 4,9 billion) and culinary ($1 billion). It is very essential to all business players in fashion to know the customers’ insight and future of buying habits, as well as to have the knowledge of trend forecasting. The importance to predict and to have a vision of upcoming trend would be a good grounding for all designers and business players to make all business decisions and to settle strategy for the brand to grow.
