The trend is particularly strong among Millennials and Gen Z, who predominantly spend on fashion. The younger cohorts spent most of their money on fashion products (approximately 60 percent) in the last 12 months, compared to cosmetics, grooming, sports and leisure, technology, and homeware, which all sit between 30 to 40 percent combined. Despite a decline in shopping frequency due to eco- nomic constraints, 38% of consumers maintain their online shopping habits, driven by the search for better prices and value. The frequency of shopping online has fallen a little in 2023. This is likely to be due to shoppers continuing to head back to the store as buying behaviours have re- turned to more of a pre-pandemic norm, as well as perhaps
