2.1. PRODUCT TRENDS

The All Day Bra

Everyday bra designs are becoming more relaxed in terms of structure and nipple
covering due to no-bra trends, casual attire during the epidemic, and body
acceptance. It uses lightweight or detachable cushioning along with double-
layered textiles for support, designed tension, high-apex cutting, and reinforced
seams (Lynch, 2022).

The Joyful Bralette

Bralette take on a fun aesthetic and incorporate floral elements. In an eclectic,

softly created style, prints, and needlework draw inspiration from the 1960s and
1970s. This trend highlights sustainability and eco-consciousness by using soft
environmentally friendly fabrics, water-based inks to print, and lyocell thread for
embroidery (Lynch, 2022).

The Solution Briefs

Underwear for women does not need to be all about appearance.

Briefs provide solutions including breathability, moisture-wicking, antimicrobial,
and compressive athletic functionality. It comes in gender-inclusive shapes,
pouch, and flat-fronted options for boxer briefs, high-rise cuts for security or
smoothing function, or other modifications for certain wearers (Lynch, 2022).

The Bodysuit

Bodysuits are gaining popularity. It varies from leotard styles for athletic layering
to cutouts for a bold fashion statement. Brands from Dora Larsen, SKIMS to Alix
NYC are catering to consumer demands by providing stylish bodysuits with
integrated bras and natural fabrics (Lynch, 2022).

Intimates Forecast S/S 24: Protect & Connect

by Jo Lynch.

Protect & Connect" is the extension of our A/W 23/24 predicted trend "Care
Culture". Consumers are prioritizing experiences that are nourishing and
supporting rather than extractive and draining. "Protect & Connect" honors the
elements that unite and sustain us, including the people, locations, traditions,
cultures, and communities.

Functionally speaking, this trend focuses on goods that enhance our sense of
security and well-being. Think of portable, packable designs that offer
preparedness and safety in an unpredictable world, whether for travel, nomadic
lifestyles, or changing weather. It might take the shape of restorative and
therapeutic designs that harness the power of color, light, and emotion. Protect &
Connect is distinguished by its simple yet emotional designs on an aesthetic level.
Both extraneous embellishments and cold simplicity are inappropriate here.
Instead, this trend is a fusion between soft, natural materials, soothing textures,
and warm, sun-tinged colors with clean designs (Lynch, 2022).
 10

Inclusive Support

As smoothing and compressive products grow more appealing and solution-

oriented, as well as inclusive, flexible, and more sustainable, the phrase "solution"
becomes the new "comfort" in intimates. This trend focuses on styles that provide
the wearer a sense of security and well-being, with an emphasis on inclusive size
ranges, neutral color schemes, and wearer-specific details (Lynch, 2022).

Emotional Minimalism

Lightweight, cozy, simple, and modular items that are gently textured, can wrap
and layer with garments in off-duty dancer-inspired ways, and create a laid-back
atmosphere to promote themes of #HealthAndWellness within adaptable. For
materials, create lingerie accents using a combination of discarded synthetic and
natural yarns. Layers can be embellished with details using satin ties and bralettes
(Lynch, 2022).

Digital Nutrition

WGSN's forecast has the same core as AeBeZe's Digital Nutrition, both
promoting wellness. The concept of Digital Wellness is to give additional support
and dose of comfort everyone needs by delevoping digital tools such as alternative
therapies, curated experiences, and catalytic content. Its goal is to assist everyone
in addressing the various emotional difficulties brought on by daily living by using
wholesome content.

It is based on chemicals in your brain: Acetylcholine for focus, Dopamine for

pleasure, Endorphins for energy, GABA for sensations of calm and serenity, and
Serotonin to establish happiness (AeBeZe, 2021).

The main theme of Digital Nutrition align with ALLBA's value to help
consumers personally by providing their needs through function, material choice,
and sizing. ALLBA's products are made to cater, to make consumers feel good, to
give assurance and comfort in their own bodies.

ALLBA takes the Digital Nutrition theme literally by incorporating each

emotion's shape into the products. This is only the base silhouette which will be
further developed and decorated in the design & creation process.

2.2. DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Retail Store

International lingerie powerhouses such as Victoria's Secret and La Senza operate

their retail stores in Indonesia. It is a specific space that they design accordingly to
sell their goods. These retail stores are located at malls preferably with high
customer flow.

Department Store

Department stores are retail establishment that sells a wide variety of goods. Every
department store has an underwear section. In Indonesia, department stores start
from an affordable price range to a more luxurious one. From Matahari to Sogo,
Metro, Central, and Galleries Lafayette. Both local and international lingerie
brands are available there. However, most department stores are currently
declining in sales.

 17

Website

A brand's official website represents its service to customers. The purpose is to

display products so potential buyers can purchase them online. Ideally, an official
website should be easily accessed and pleasing to view.

E-Commerce

In 2020, Indonesia had one of the highest rates of e-commerce adoption globally.
Up to 90% of the nation's internet users between the ages of 16 and 64 have made
online purchases. Indonesia's e-commerce sector had a gross market value (GMV)
of over USD 30 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow to USD 83 billion in
2025. Based on the data e-commerce is promiment in Indonesia. Electronic
payments, free shipping, discounts, and cashback are provided to entice customers
to shop online. Tokopedia and Shopee are leading Indonesian e-commerce with a
collective of 300 million user activity each month.

2.3. COMMUNICATION TREND
Omni-channel Presence

It is important to have both online and offline presence. While online scope is
huge, it is important to make impression in real life too. Especially after the
pandemic where people crave direct interaction.

Inclusive and relatable

The average woman in Indonesia is 1.66 m tall and weights 61.4 kg. Not very
skinny. Consumers are tired of one body type as the benchmark for lingerie. The
people want to see people that look like them in campaigns, actually wearing the
products - so they don't have to wonder "Will it look good on me?"

Sense of community

Brands build their own clique of audience by engaging social media posts
containing information and trivia. As a result of communication within
community customers will feel like they are a part of something bigger by wearing
the items.

Cross-industry collaboration
Other than social media content within internal brand, another way to cultivate
the community is to do a cross-industry collaboration with the same value.

3. MACRO RESEARCH
Political Factors

Government interference

The Ministry of Trade tightened the regulation requiring government clearance

for imports of a variety of textiles and textile products, making it mandatory for all
textile imports to be approved by the Ministry. The government declared a
renewal of the safeguard tariffs on 107 different fabric kinds and six different yarn
types in May 2020. These well-intentioned regulations to promote textile input
producers could raise expenses for businesses and further reduce the
competitiveness of the apparel industry (Kemendag, n.d.)

Tax

Taxes must be paid by all micro, small, and medium-sized businesses (MSME),
including owners of online stores. If the gross income does not exceed IDR 4.8
billion in a calendar year, MSMEs are subject to taxes at a rate of 0.5 percent of
gross income, whether they sell their products online or in physical storefronts
(Nugroho, 2019).
 25
Economic Factors

Expanding middle class in Indonesia

The middle-class household increased 20% in 2019, more than double in

comparison to 9% in 1993. According to the National Socio-Economic Survey
(SUSENAS). In addition to being a growth driver, the middle class accounts for
roughly half of all national consumption (Pratomo, Syafitri, & Anindya, 2020).

Cotton price increased due to market demand

Indonesia has emerged as one of the major exporters of cotton textiles and apparel
since the early 1980s (Eng, 2016). Instead of using cotton that was cultivated
locally, the textile industry expanded by processing imported yarn and raw cotton.
Indonesia’s cotton consumption is forecast to increase to 2.5 million bales in
2021/22, up approximately 2 percent from 2.45 million bales in 2020/21. The
demand for cotton will outstrip supply in 2021 despite a projected 5% rise in
production, which would drive up prices (USDA, 2022).

Burden of inflation

In September 2022, Indonesia's annual inflation rate increased to 5.95% from

4.69%, the highest level since October 2015 (TradingEconomics, 2022). Fuel price
hikes raise the cost of transportation and lower profit margins for transportation
companies. As a result, they raise their prices, and fashion brands make up the
difference by raising the price of their clothing.
 26

Social Factors

Growing population

The current population of Indonesia in 2022 is 275,501,339, a 0.64% increase

from 2021 (Macrotrends, n.d.). An increase of population automatically results in
more target customers to be reached.

Improved lifestyle

Consumer attitudes will alter as expectations rise with more opulent housing, cars,
and lifestyle options.

Feminism in Indonesia

A variety of women's activist organizations came together to organize the

Women's March Jakarta in honor of International Women's Day in 2017. This
movement allows Indonesian women to be more comfortable heading toward
sexual liberation. This is in hopes of the market will be more open and vocal about
what clothing, including undergarment they desire.
 27

 28
Environmental Factors

Waste crisis

The disposal of chemical waste during manufacture is a significant problem for

the clothing industry. Indonesia is responsible for 2.4% of global textile
production and one of its largest export businesses. Over 1,000 factories line the
banks of the Citarum River, and they are discharging poisonous substances like
mercury, cadmium, and arsenic into the water that villagers use for bathing and
washing their clothing (Mearns, 2021)

Short supply of natural resources

The lingerie industry uses many types of textiles and materials that might require
limited resources. In challenging times, supply may not meet the demands and
needs.

Sustainability awareness

Fashion brands, including the lingerie market, are demanded to contribute to

sustainability. It is estimated that 92 million tons of textile waste are created
annually by the fashion industry (Dean, 2019). Not to mention excess chemical
waste. As today's customers are becoming more environmentally conscious and
ethical, they want to know the value of a garment their purchasing. Questions
may rise, for example: Was this product produced sustainably? What am I
contributing to the earth by supporting this brand?
 29

Technological Factors

E-commerce supported by digital initiatives

The nation's digital environment is expanding quickly. Among other growing

Asian nations, Indonesia has tremendous feedback for e-commerce. The
Information and Communications Technology Ministry projects that its e-
commerce market will reach USD 130 billion (in terms of GTV) by 2020 with an
annual growth of 50%, making Indonesia the third largest in this space after China
and India. According to Statista, Indonesia's e-commerce revenue is projected to
grow at a CAGR of 25.8% from 2019 to 2023, reaching USD 47 billion
(Televisory, 2019).

Product innovation

During and after the pandemic, customers start to seek for more comfort. This
correlates with the lessen of interest in push-up bras. New products innovation
such as invisible bra straps are in.
 30

Textile material advancement

Antimicrobial textiles can kill as well as stop the growth of germs. The application
of several synthetic and natural chemicals are used to create antimicrobial fabrics.
Antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral textiles are innovations in antimicrobial
textiles. Different approaches and techniques determines whether a textile
possesses antimicrobial capabilities against bacterial, fungal, and viral diseases.
This technological advancement is used to make women's panties for hygiene
improvement (Rehan G, Saurav S, Rakesh K.S., 2022).

Mobile experience incorporating Artificial Intelligence

Today, brands are expected to give a pleasant mobile customer experience. Wacoal
launched mybraFit, an app that uses artificial intelligence to determine users' bra
sizes and make product recommendations. The software asks users to capture a
hands-free body image and respond to four questions on the shape of their
physique and breasts. They then get an email with their bra size information and
suggestions for Wacoal items from a selection of more than 60 bra styles. These
recommendations are easily selectable and shoppable for customers (Lee, 2021)
 31

Legal Factor

Laborers' rights regulation

The export of clothing is a key component of the Indonesian economy,

accounting for 5% of overall exports and 11% of manufactured exports
worldwide. The current industry has 5.2 million employees, the majority of whom
are female, middling skilled, and low-paid. Labor rights in Indonesia have been
regulated in UU Number 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower (Pane, 2020).
34
 33

4.1. CONSUMER TRENDS

Functionality
Consumers seek functionality and comfort. They pick their choice of
undergarment according to their outfit. For example, seamless panties for tight
dresses and strapless bras for Sabrina neckline tops.

Sense of trust
Consumers does not like to switch in between lingerie brands because lingerie is
intimate. Once they are satisfied with the lingerie of one brand, they are most
likely to repurchase there.

Privacy
Indonesia is a religious country with strong own social norms and values. In
Indonesia, anything in connection to sex is viewed as taboo. Indonesian customers
often demand a privacy packaging option where it won't be obvious that the
product is lingerie.

Competitive Review
The competitors in competitive matrix A are lingerie brands in Indonesia within
the bridge price range. Both Raquel Lingerie and La Senza’s products are intimate
wear. Their product design can be similar, but La Senza’s brand image is flashier.

The competitors in competitive matrix B are local Indonesian brand that sells
similar products. Nipplets and Pluffy’s Choice both import their product. They
cater accessories such as nipple patches and body tapes but with basic designs and
very limited colors. Their material quality and production ethics are undisclosed.
Nipplets has a very loud and successful social media presence by campaigning for
modern feminism while Pluffly’s choice is known for affordable basics.

Competitive Gap
ALLBA finds the gap by catering to Nipplets and Pluffy’s Choice functional
needs in the bridge segmentation with the standard of Raquel Lingerie and La
Senza’s design. ALLBA’s brand image is to serve sensuality through an elevated
vision.

5.2. PROMOTIONAL ANALYSIS

Official Website

identity values in the About Us introductory page.

Mobile Application
According to previous interviews, one of the biggest issue for online lingerie
shoppers is wrong sizing. Some are hesitant to try at all due to unclear size guides
and not knowing wether if it's the right choice for their body type. MyBraFit is an
AI-powered app that measures an accurate bra size in minutes and provides a
customized selection of bras that are suitable for the user's requirements (Lee,
2021).

Social Media
The brand will be active on social media and utilize Instagram ads. Even though
there is a possibility Facebook ads might be cheaper, Instagram ads can target
specific genders, age ranges, locations, interests, and behaviors. This is a factor to
consider that benefits ALLBA's intention to reach a niche target market. In the
hype of video-content, ALLBA is also actively posting Instagram reel and TikTok.
