Consumer Shift: Examining Female Generation Y Consumers’ Activewear Consumption, Lauren Laporte
LSU Master's Theses
The onset of the Covid-19 pandemic resulted in a change to standard consumption patterns as consumers began prioritizing health and wellness, working remotely, and made a switch from material-based consumption practices to an experiential-value-based consumption mindset.

Beyond the garments themselves we must understand the larger historical and sociological context in which these articles of clothing were produced. How does the shopping environment shape the buying habits and fashion trends of an era? …

The present study focused on American youth (n = 1,049). Based on extant literature review, a hypothesized model was proposed. To test …
