Displaysense has launched a new fashion section on their website aimed at making Britain's clothing stores more appealing.

Experts in the retail and exhibition display markets, Displaysense is one of the UK’s leading suppliers of mannequins and coat hangers and is looking to help shop owners across the country recapture their customer base, post recession.

With the new fashion display range on board, it is hoped that clothing retailers of all sizes can encourage customers to come in off the high street and part with their hard earned cash.

Small businesses in particular can benefit enormously by revamping and upgrading their shop window and shop floor displays to create a more engaging product showcase and provide customers with a more pleasant shopping experience.

According to Retail Week, online sales of clothes increased by a massive 32% in May, a sign that people are willing to spend more as the dark clouds of recession slowly make way for the blue skies of a brighter economy. Bricks and mortar companies with an online presence actually capture more of this market, but can do more by offering modern and attractive shopping environments which a lot of stores are lacking.

The companies new Fashion section features a host of fresh products that have been sourced over the past few months including a huge range of new vintage mannequin busts and wall mounted display systems such as spur shelving and clothing rails; integral parts of successful clothing and garment promotion.

Steve Whittle, the marketing director at Displaysense commented on the company's decision to launch the new range. He said: "It's important for high street fashion retailers to understand the impact of poorly designed and dated shop layouts. Having any hope of competing with online stores, businesses should reinvest in their premises to give it a new lease of life and make it a more inviting proposition for consumers."

The recent announcement that VAT is set to increase to 20% in January could hit smaller businesses who don’t take it upon themselves to update their fashion displays and encourage those all important sales.

"Retailers in the fashion industry may have to spend money to make money, but this is better than not making any money at all," concluded Steve Whittle.
