1 Springer Series in Fashion Business Series editor Tsan-Ming Choi, Institute of Textiles and Clothing, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong

2 This book series publishes monographs and edited volumes from leading scholars and established practitioners in the fashion business. Specific focus areas such as luxury fashion branding, fashion operations management, and fashion finance and economics, are covered in volumes published in the series. These perspectives of the fashion industry, one of the world s most important businesses, offer unique research contributions among business and economics researchers and practitioners. Given that the fashion industry has become global, highly dynamic, and green, the book series responds to calls for more in-depth research about it from commercial points of views, such as sourcing, manufacturing, and retailing. In addition, volumes published in Springer Series in Fashion Business explore deeply each part of the fashion industry s supply chain associated with the many other critical issues.
