Transform’s 2015 Retail Report: Fashion focuses on 58
retailers, reviewing their digital proposition across a
range of dimensions and identifying relative strengths
and weaknesses, and capturing best practices. The
report is designed to provide you with a mirror on your
business and an easy way to benchmark against peers.
But we do not advocate chasing the competition. There
has been a tendency to engage in an ‘arms race’ on
fulfilment, or to expand the international offering based
on the success some have had. Each retailer must
define its proposition against its own strategy and for
its particular customers, clear in what differentiators
add value in their eyes and what elements are expected
core basics. But at the same time, customers do
compare across brands and expectations are set by the
most frequently shopped or most celebrated.
Many retailers have propositions that are strong in
some areas, such as fulfilment, but may be let down in
areas of the site where the user experience lags behind
the overall offer. Similarly, while some have great
usability, the fundamental offer may not be robust. A
surprising finding was that many retailers had not yet
put the enablers in place to offer key multichannel
propositions such as click collect and that while
many had implemented best practice ideas, such as
guest checkout, the actual execution was weaker than
expected.
Some retailers of course continue to blaze a trail,
being innovative, customer-focused and commercially
savvy. It’s easy to identify leaders and laggards on any
one of those dimensions, but it’s their combination
that matters. For example, from a customer-centricity
perspective one might question a retailers such as New
Look who set a minimum spend threshold on click
collect, yet if we use a profitability or operational lens,
that conscious choice becomes quite understandable.
This need to include the basic commercial analysis
alongside the CX one is apparent when reviewing the
International propositions. If £3.95 is the standard fee
for a 3 day delivery to Europe, is there genuine enduring
benefit in moving to a free delivery offer?
So while this report does score each area of the
proposition and thus creates a total score for the
retailer, these numbers should be used to focus
thinking rather than be seen as a definitive goal in
themselves. Without sales data, specific customer
insight, an awareness of strategic intent and operational
capability, it’s speculative to judge a retailer’s
proposition. And any report contrasting a Burberry with
its premium, editorial, indulgent offer to a Topshop’s
mass market proposition must be used judiciously.
This report is also not a UX review, in which (for
example) Zara would score less well, nor a review of
sales volumes (where Zara would do comparatively
better). Nor is it a review of visual styling and a
commentary on the high gloss, image laden feel of
some sites vs the more transactional feel of others.
But the scoring methodology is logical and the
array of elements covered is broad and thus more

informative of the total customer experience than
traditional reviews. For future editions we can consider
a weighting, noting that success in social is likely to be
a less significant driver of sales than checkout or search
optimisation. But absent detailed analysis to prove
the relative importance of each area, we have instead
weighted each component equally. We would welcome
engagement from fashion retailers who can work with
us to refine this model.
For this report earlier this year we undertook research
across more than 50 and given the pace of change and
competitive jostling we might expect that already some
elements will be out of date as retailers evolve their
propositions. In providing a single reference point on
key elements of the offer we hope to enable readers to
rapidly put any proposition into a wider market context.
All caveats noted, nonetheless there are digital leaders
who stand out and who are the highest scoring.
While in all cases there are elements to improve on,
we would recognise these firms intuitively, based on
their commercial results, customer feedback and the
quality of their teams. There is no surprise that John
Lewis, Superdry, House of Fraser or Schuh feature at
the top of the table. The winning firms are very digital,
are omnichannel in their thinking, have developed
a capability in innovation and have a strong service
orientation. Others might have been expected to
feature, but are let down by their proposition or
capability in particular areas. Boden, a trailblazer in
non-physical fashion retailing, scores less well in
social, mobile international. Austin Reed is a retailer
recognised as being severely challenged, and it’s no
surprise it has failed to embrace digital (whether that
be the cause or a symptom of its difficulties could be
discussed) . Perhaps surprisingly, the younger, trendier
brands (such as Jack Wills), especially if global (eg
Hollister), may be adequate by US standards but deliver
a comparatively poor offer to their UK customers. As
ever though in retail, the most fundamental ingredient
is having the right product. When those manufacturing
or buying decisions come together with superb
execution and excellent customer experience, as
John Lewis, Superdry and others show, then great
outcomes happen for both retailer and customer.
We hope this report is informative and stimulating, and
drives the discussion, analysis and action needed so
British fashion retailers continue to succeed and excel.
We very much welcome feedback on this first report
and invite you to join the debate on #RRF15

The checkout is of course the most critical user
experience component to get right. Determining
when to enter the HTTPS section, whether to allow
a click back to the homepage or PDP, when to expire
the session, how to insert the fulfilment options, how
(whether?) to present support for vouchers etc. are
just a few of the commercial, brand and UX issues
to work through. And across the array of potential
features, the right answer is unclear and needs to be
established on a case by case basis.
However, there are certain uncontroversial basics:
1. The overall process should be as
simple and fast as possible
2. Guest checkout should be enabled
3. Taking payment should be as low a
barrier as possible
Reviewing these dimensions, it’s surprising therefore
that 31% still don’t offer a guest checkout capability.
And of those that do, many (such as Jigsaw)
put up substantial registration and data-capture
components.. Often these will have sub-optimal
signage to the user about why the data is being
captured eg “Enter your email so we can alert you
when your item’s despatched” is preferred to “Email:”
simply being one of a long collection of fields. Best
practice around guest checkout design is still in flux
but it’s clear that many retailers are only paying lip
service to it, with the more sophisticated approaches
reducing data entry at point of sale in combination
with subsequent follow-ups for data enrichment.

Paypal, which is perhaps the closest most retailers
will get to a ‘one-click’ type payment solution,
is increasingly common. Understandably so,
given its heritage and consumer’s affection for
the brand, its privacy and simplicity. But noting
its substantial impact on commercials, especially
for smaller baskets, and the difficulty in proving
ROI indisputably, it’s unsurprising that almost one
quarter of the researched retailers have yet to
implement it.
However, the checkout research also proves
incontrovertibly that ultimately it’s all about the
product proposition. In our research, Next scored
zero for its checkout – it’s a lengthy, process with
enforced registration and no Paypal support. But
Next is undeniably a giant in online sales, because
ultimately it has great product at great prices.
However, one is left wondering how much better
it could be if it adopted more of the best practices.

Customer service is receiving increased attention
now that organisations have understood that
multichannel means more than simply web and
physical. Enabling a single customer view and
consistent, seamless experience across all channels
has become key. And while it was originally hoped
that online would drive down contact centre costs,
the reality has been different. For many, the ‘where
is my order’ calls have led to significant volume
impacts. Additionally, average handling times
have risen, as the contact centre is handling more
complex queries rather than the simpler ones that
customers can self-answer through FAQs and the
like. For the most sophisticated retailers, contact
centres are now a profit-centre, with the employee
able to not just resolve customer issues but to save
lost sales and upsell products into the customer’s
order. However, some 10% of retailers (ASOS,
Hollister and those associated with the Aurora
group) do not offer a phone based approach to
customer service.

The range of channels used is increasing to match the
range that customers use. But not all channels are equal.
Some, such as social, are used more for complaints than
for support, and are used more by the younger audience.
Recent research (Oracle Retail Report 2015 – Delivering
Retail) found 42% of retailers did not respond to an enquiry,
and 15% took more than one day (a lifetime in today’s
digital world). Where social is undertaken, it must therefore
be undertaken fully.
This is most key for Millennials in particular, where
social is preferred to email, and indeed they may have
an email address only in order to register for Snapchat,
Instagram, WhatsApp and the like. Email is of course also
an asynchronous medium and the ping-pong contacts are
far less efficient than chat, for example, in resolving many
issues. The same Oracle report found 24% of its (different)
respondents did not reply at all. And only 43% could
manage to respond on the same day. Given Live Chat tends
to be more effective at upselling than email and that the
concurrent contact handling makes it more efficient than
Schuh uses Live Chat to support sales from the PDP
Contact methods offered by retailers
13. Page 13
telephone response, we might anticipate more retailers
offering chat options. Live chat is however comparatively
uncommon, with just seven retailers using it despite its
superiority in fully resolving issues. Given chat also tends
to be more effective at upselling than email and that the
concurrent contact handling makes it more efficient than
telephone response, we would anticipate more retailers
offering chat options. As in so many areas, Schuh is at the
leading edge here. Their PDPs are already best in class
from an information perspective, but additionally there is
also full live chat support over both text and video, and
while it can be intrusive when browsing, it is clear they are
committed to using customer service to make the sale and
support the consumer throughout their journey.
Partially driven by the increasing international footprint
of the retailers, available support hours have expanded.
Round the clock coverage is perhaps surprisingly common
with 22% of retailers offering it, and while that might be
expected from global brands such as HM and Gap, it
is also offered by retailers such as All Saints. Retailers
have very clearly recognised that fashion shopping is not
a 9-5 activity, and with delivery cut-offs edging closer
to midnight (and reaching it in some cases), supporting
the shop with customer service should quickly follow.
Certainly weekend and evening support has now become
normal, with a majority offering it.

Where standard isn’t free, it’s usual for it to be so
above a certain spend level. For the savvy shoe
retailers (LK Bennett, Office, Schuh) there’s a token
minimum spend (less than £5), but otherwise 28% see
£50 as the standard threshold (indeed the handful
that set it between £20 and £50 might wish to A/B
test their choice if they haven’t done so). Of those
above £50, Net-a-Porter’s £200 threshold is perhaps
understandable, in contrast to Fat Face’s £60. But 15%
of the retailers never offer it, and we might assume that
some are missing out on the larger baskets, except it
includes retailers such as Very, Next and Boden, who
focus on yield management and whose free returns
may mean the AOV is naturally larger.
Standard pricing has now stabilised at two distinct
levels – it’s either free (25% of retailers) or it’s £3.99
(52%). Some retailers are at £3 or £3.50 but are arguably
eating into margin unless they’ve proven their specific
demand exhibits elasticity around this delivery price
point. And a small number of retailers are substantially
above this level. This will become unsustainable in the
customers’ eyes, and these retailers will need to fix
whatever their operational challenges are and/or wean
themselves off delivery-related profits which customers
will come to resent.

If choosing standard, for many (44%) up to five days is
the standard wait time for the item, though in several
cases we know that the retailer will typically exceed
the expectation (other than at Peak). For a small group
though the promise is now within 1 day (7%) and for
26% it’s no longer than 3 days. No clear relationship
exists between the fee for standard and the delivery
time (other than “Free” typically being a 5 day promise).
We might expect a three day promise is probably the
future for most retailers, with click collect supporting
those customers who are price sensitive or time
sensitive, but insufficiently to pay for next day delivery.
Next day cut-offs are increasingly a battleground for
retailers. Anecdotally each extra hour of prime online
shopping time in the evening can deliver double digit
lifts in sales. With peak shopping being 7pm-10pm for
many, that so many have an afternoon cut-off (49% are
2pm to 6pm) or even a lunchtime cut-off (11%) reflects
the difficult logistical challenges many retailers have. At
the other end of the spectrum, Next has pushed its cut-
off to midnight, and 10pm is the benchmark for several.
For others though, the cut-off for collection is high but
not delivery.

Delivery promise for standard delivery Cut-off time for next day delivery
Next’s 11pm cut-off is prominent on the home page
19. Page 19
However, often the next day price architecture is set
up to encourage the incremental spend, which for
many retailers makes the difference between fulfilment
costing profit versus contributing to it. Some 30% of
retailers offer next day at £5 or less, and in many cases
that’s an additional £1 to the consumer. Equally, 37%
price it between £5 and £7, clearly therefore either
looking to profit from the customer’s need, or else
having carrier rates that necessitate it. More than a
handful of retailers do not in fact offer next day at all,
and typically this is consistent with an absence of click
collect, or a long delivery promise, suggesting these
retailers struggle with their fulfilment operations.
Click collect is for some retailers becoming the
dominant fulfilment route for their online trade. During
Peak trading, 56% of John Lewis orders were collected
via the service, and most organisations who shared
specifics with us were in excess of 35% (many above
the 50% mark). Getting this experience right, making it
operationally efficient and ensuring it is profitable will
be a key focus for retailers over the next 12 months.
Reviewing some organisations, it becomes clear that
when end-to-end costs are evaluated (including store
staff, call centre costs etc.) and contrasted with average
order values (which are typically lower), click collect
is not always the economically optimal preference for
retailers. Improving the financials will become more of
a focus as the volume scales.
However, a surprising number of retailers still don’t
offer the service. Stylish young fashion brands like
Jack Wills and Hollister are amongst those that have
yet to implement it. Indeed these retailers in general
lag perceived best practice on fulfilment. And where
the service does exist, the digital experience is often
lacking in terms of usability (especially around store
locations – see screenshots) and on messaging the
specifics of the proposition. Many retailers make it

extremely challenging to discover how long the item
will be available at the location (56% don’t declare
this), nor indeed when it will arrive there. It may be that
those retailers have yet to develop their operational
processes, or that they simply haven’t chosen to
communicate this in an easy fashion pre-purchase.
The variability in wait times reflects the stock levels
maintained in store, the stock visibility, use of couriers
vs store fleet and of course the focus the retailer has
placed on this area. So while one quarter of retailers
can now do click collect for next day, another 25%
has either a long promise (7+ days) or a sufficiently
broad range (3-7 days). So the immediacy and store
integration value is for some still quite a way off
operationally. Arguably fulfilment is moving to a 365
day model, and weekend delivery is now available
from more than 50% of these retailers. But evening
delivery (17%) and timed delivery slots (13%) remain rare
and there seems to be limited appetite for expanding
these. Given the explosion in click collect and the
widespread availability of Collect+, these additional
options may not become mainstream. Collect+ clearly
has, with 52% of retailers offering it - though the array
of prices charged is surprising and not always well
aligned with the overall delivery price architecture.
What is surprising is that only 61% offer track trace
functionality, given the extent to which ‘where is my
order’ enquiries drive contact with customer service
(typically 50% of contacts for many retailers). With
carriers focusing on enhancing their capabilities here
(including real-time maps with named drivers and their
contact numbers), this surely is an area where we’d
expect almost ubiquitous adoption.

It did not take long for UK retailers to recognise that they led much of the world in
their eCommerce capability, that their products have great appeal internationally and
that while domestic competition was fierce, selling overseas by comparison appeared
to offer greater opportunity. As pure-play retailers like Asos and Wiggle started
announcing that more than 50% of sales were coming from international, overseas
selling went from an interesting but complicated idea to an item right at the top of
almost everyone’s to-do list. No surprise then that more than 91% of the firms looked
at have an international offering. And for 52% that offer exists across 50 markets.
While the US, CA and AU were the obvious easy pickings, retailer Ridley took on the
multilingual and multi currency challenges of the nearby European markets and then
went fully fledged into the rest. The potential in the large markets of Brazil, China,
Russia and Turkey still present challenges to some, but International is for many
retailers clearly a major focus area.
Those more emergent markets are wonderful opportunities for some, with the
premium retailers in particular having China specific sites. But Russia remains a
market that few are supporting. Recognising the potential, retailers are still open
to the opportunities – Burberry for example allows Brazilian customers to browse
(in English), but then funnels users into live chat or other contact mechanisms to
complete the transaction. Harvey Nichols invites all non-UK shoppers to contact
customer services. For others, even the more mature markets are not yet part of the
offering: HM’s Australian users cannot buy from the UK site yet. While the HM
Australian site shows the product range, it does not support online purchasing (an
improvement at least on Ted Baker’s AU site, which is a holding page).
Despite the ecosystem that’s sprung up around international, with a plethora of
small service organisations sitting alongside the logistics behemoths, the delivery
pricing suggests that not everyone has got it working smoothly. At one end of the
spectrum, and perhaps unnecessarily, Clarks and Superdry choose to offer free
shipping internationally, All Saints is free to Europe and three of the Arcadia brands
(Miss Selfridge, Wallis Evans) are free to the US. In contrast, LK Bennett charges
£20 to Europe. Perhaps this reflects sound commercial decisions with some retailers
recognising they can (temporarily?) make profits on shipping. There is no current
evidence to suggest that international will go the same way as domestic, with an
inevitable slide towards fast and free. Instead retailers appear to be settling down at a
‘sensible’ shipping charge to the consumers. The variation across markets is however
substantial. Shipping to the US is for most significantly more expensive, but different

Retailers delivering to key growth markets

retailers clearly either have different carrier arrangements across different markets,
or are able to (or are forced to) charge quite differentiated prices. Dune for example
is low-cost to EU US at £3.50, but charges £20 to Australia. Our research did not
explore returns policies and time, but it may be that reverse logistics is driving some
of the variation.
Norms in each market of course also vary, and not all markets have experienced
the same focus on ever cheaper, faster, more convenient fulfilment options that has
characterised the UK market in recent years. For the US, standard delivery of 5 days
or more was typical from the retailers reviewed, while for Australia the standard terms
were slower still
Presentationally, while several retailers present each country’s options distinctly
(usually via a table), some favour displaying groups of countries. At its extreme, some,
such as Fat Face, present a very simple, clean statement of “£10 anywhere in the
world”. However, noting that the consumer is most likely researching only their own
one specific country, leaving any positive or negative feelings from comparing with
other countries, they would most probably prefer the more specific presentational
styles. Especially where the range of possible delivery dates is exteme: for more than
a third of retailers, citing a range between earliest and latest possible deliveries of
more than 7 days is considered reasonable, Jack Wills states its delivery price as £12
whether Europe or International, and more experienced continental shoppers will
perhaps feel aggrieved that they are charged the same rates as customers in Australia
or China.

Retailers offering country-specific fulfilment propositions

International support varies widely, with most
assuming overseas customers will be comfortable
with English language and paying in sterling. However,
some retailers are making small efforts to better serve
these customers. John Lewis delivers to a limited range
of countries, but does provide its international shipping
information in local language, with seven languages
offered in addition to English. And Matches enables
customers to switch display currencies as well as set a
delivery destination (from over 200 choices).
Increasingly, sites have a country specific variant,
which better caters for localised shipping, currency
and pricing. The most internationally optimised
retailers such as ASOS and especially Next fully
localise, including language, tone and sometimes
range and merchandising. In several cases the product
is still served from the UK (and declared as such on
some sites), while for others there is a local or regional
fulfilment operation. For most such retailers, the
available sites are typically UK, US, Australia and either
an EU wide option, or German and French specific
variants. Retailers usually have a ‘country’ or ‘region’
link or flag in the header to enable to switch, though
not always (JD Sports has no such link, and offers no
delivery to France in its list, but the sophisticated user
can deduce that a jdsports.fr exists).
Note that for the purposes of this report, the tabular
data and statistical analysis reflects the experience of
international shoppers coming to the UK site. Several
retailers reviewed are not UK based (eg Abercrombie
Fitch, Gap, HM, Hollister Zara) and are therefore
excluded from the analysis.

With 40% of online sales typically coming from
mobile, the area is naturally receiving substantial
focus. However, the old decision of ‘responsive or an
app’ still seems to confuse some, when the answer is
surely always ‘build a responsive site’ (or better yet, an
adaptive one). This is recognised by 88% of the retailers
reviewed, and sometimes the answer is additionally
to also ‘build an app’. An app is if course only useful
when your customers install it. We can anticipate the
customer experience benefits from downloading apps
to increase as stores increasingly digitise and enable
beacons, scan and pay, loyalty features, add social
proofs and shares and so on. But nonetheless we do
not expect that any user will have a pre-ponderance
of retailer specific apps on their device. However,
as solutions such as the PhoneGap framework

increasingly make developing apps a more marginal
extension on core site development, we do expect
more apps to be offered. Today however it is surprising
that 24% of retailers do not have an app. And where
retailers have written an app, they have in general
chosen to do so for iOS rather than Android, despite the
iPhone’s market share traditionally being far below that
of Android devices (though it now exceeds 40% and is
trending up following the release of iOS8).
iPhone apps are generally rated less well by users. On
average, they score 3.3 out of 5 from users compared
to Android apps’ 3.8. And overall it appeared that the
iOS apps were more polarised, with many being quite
poorly rated, while a few were very positively regarded,
including ASOS, rated 4.9 and with one of the larger
download levels.
On mobile, enabling store locators and the like is a
basic requirement, and unsurprisingly 86% of retailers
offer this. Of greater
importance is satisfying
the immediacy needs
some customers have
by offering information
on local store’s stock
levels. Unfortunately,
in fashion retailing in
particular very few have
sufficiently accurate
inventory levels. Marks and Spencer leads the way
on using RFID to enable this and many retailers are
working on a single view of stock, so we can anticipate
this functionality being more broadly available within a
few years.
Mobile performance remains challenging for many.
While some retailers, such as HM, Superdry and Moss
Bros, performed well in Google’s performance tests,
more than one third of those tested scored less than 60
out of 100.

Imagery is critical in selling
fashion, and many of the retailers
have invested heavily in this area,
with most now having at least
five images . The very best don’t
just include an array of images,
but they include detail shots of
specific elements of the clothing,
or full 360 degree rotations (eg
Dune, noting that this is much
easier for shoes). For most, not
showing the model’s head remains
the approach, reflecting both
the additional cost of doing so
and beliefs around whether this
helps or hinders the customer’s
purchasing process.
Video remains relatively uncommon, and while retailers
such as ASOS will include catwalk video prominently,
only 15% of retailers use video so they are in the
minority, and there is no real correlation with breadth of
range or product price.
The Net-a-Porter PDP is a stand-out, as might be
expected from a brand that can afford to invest behind
this page, given the average selling price.
Their imagery is extensive, their support facilities
prominent, and not only are they keen to enable
social sharing, but Weibo is also included as a posting
destination. The visual design too has clearly been an
area of focus.
At an entirely different price point, the Next PDP
also features a number of interesting aspects. With
a great set of images and zoom tools, the page also
works the upselling very hard by putting together its
collections and enabling their purchase all from within
the same PDP. Whether customers are comfortable
buying capsules and whether these recommendations
are sufficiently accurate (personalised or otherwise)
remains to be seen.

Key for many customers is knowing the returns
policy and understanding the delivery costs impacts,
but surprisingly few retailers build on their strong
propositions by highlighting this on the PDP. For some
retailers, the information is challenging to find till much
later in the purchase process, and not because it is
expensive. As ever, each retailer will have nuances that
make best practice guidelines more or less relevant –
the Net-a-Porter customer is less focused on delivery
charges when viewing £2,000 dresses. All Saints nicely
presents its returns offer and also uses a counter to
focus the mind on the cut-off, though this is potentially
unhelpful when the cut-off is a number of hours away.
For information content, Schuh’s PDP is exemplary.
Its delivery and returns are very prominent, it handles
colourways smoothly, has an excellent array of visuals
and supporting tools, brings reviews to the fore and
sensibly incorporates a ‘fitting’ appraisal, and even
integrates store stock well. Its visual design is also
very coherent, with calls to action well differentiated,
promotions clear and different page components nicely
orchestrated. Were it not for a lack of video, which
would be low on the priority list for a shoe retailer, the
Schuh PDP would have scored 10 out of 10.
