[edit] Concept & Style
- It focuses on casual, laid-back clothing and accessories for young people with a very urban style, at accessible prices. The stores themselves are designed as vanguardist spaces that are attractive to their target market.[2].
- Pull & Bear is enjoying rapid international expansion as a result of their fashion philosophy which merges creativity and quality design together with a swift response to market demands. [3]
- New product lines introduced in stores have diversified the range of products available in Pull & Bear outlets. These new lines include: music, technology, video games and video images mixed in with the clothing. Pull & Bear introduced the "XDYE" line in 1998, a more sporty and hi-tech line of clothes linked to the icons of 21st-century youth culture.
- Fall/Winter 2010: Pull and Bear stores in Europe rebranded with a new logo and in-store style presentation.
- Fall/Winter 2011: Pull and Bear introduced an online shop in September 2011.
