Amazon launches flash sale fashion site Tuesday, 3rd May 2011
The latest addition to the Amazon empire, Myhabit.com, launches today, hosting up to six sales daily, lasting for 72 hours. But is the latest trend to sweep online fashion sites just a flash in the pan? After a year in the making Myhabit goes live today, and boasts a team of 40 buyers, planners and editorial staff hoping to tap into Amazon’s 137 million active user base. Amazon veterans Maria Renz and Laura Porco will head up the site which also counts former Bergdorf Goodman creative manager Tony Balguin and Glamour, Elle and Nylon editor Jenny Feldman as senior fashion editor. The site itself will offer up to 60 percent off men’s, women’s and children’s wear, as well as accessories and jewellery. In an effort to compete with other fashion centric sites such as Net-A-Porter and Gilt.com, Myhabit is a highly polished affair, a world away from the familiar Amazon feel. Flash sale sites have seen a huge rise in popularity since the recession, as designers clear out excess stock and customers flock to snap up a bargain. The flash sale market has an estimated USD 1 billion in sales, although as the economy improves excess inventories lessen. According to Myhabit the site hopes to offset this trend by “spending a lot of time talking with vendors about their goals and what they want to do on the site.” Myhabit will provide direct links to the sites of designers featured on its online sales, which are scheduled to include Badgley Mischka, Betsey Johnson, Calvin Klein, Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti, and Escada.
