Key points
  • The experience of other online fashion retailers shows that shoppers often order multiple sizes….
  • Once it prompted full media saturation and performative crying contests on social media.
  • Now, more often than not, it’s the thing you skip before watching cat videos on YouTube.

Home delivery is an obvious gap in Primark’s proposition, but it will need to be managed carefully given the retailer’s position at the value end of the market.

Nevertheless, its release is still an event, and so here we are again, writes the Guardian’s Stuart Heritage.

Additional details
  • The John Lewis Christmas advert no longer lands with the same thud as old.
