About the Case Collection

Cases are a popular and effective educational tool for students to learn and apply business concepts to real-life situations, strategies, and dilemmas. Cases provide an overview and background information associated with an issue or problem a company is facing. Students are then asked to review and analyze the background material, evaluate multiple alternative solutions, recommend and justify an optimal solution for the company, and predict outcomes of the solution. Cases provide the opportunity to apply and practice analytic, evaluative, and communication skills.

The case collection addresses a wide range of pedagogical needs, from illustrating core classroom principles to fostering in-depth independent research. Cases are divided into the following levels:

• Introductory: for foundation and first-year undergraduates
• Intermediate: for mid- to upper-level undergraduates
• Advanced: for postgraduates

and are split into three different types:

• Field case: based on the author’s insider experience in the industry
• Public case: based on publicly available information on the industry
• Scenario case: based on a fictional but realistic company

Together the cases create essential tools for the entire fashion curriculum and bridge the gap between education and industry to equip the next generation of fashion industry leaders.
