Tang Xiaotang, an analyst with luxury goods and apparel retailing industry, said, "the downward trend of baozi group reflects the common phenomenon of the whole domestic women's clothing business.

After a large-scale entry into China, the price is not as fast as that of the fast fashion brand, and the brand is not as competitive as the European and American luxury brands.

It is understood that in February this year, Milan fashion week, Baozi group international brand Ports 1961 launched handbag business, while continuing to release men's and women's wear. However, Ports 1961 only accounts for a very small share of the group, unable to improve its overall performance, while Ports 1961 business has suffered setbacks. From the end of 2012 to the beginning of 2013, 1961 Ports has closed its independent stores in Losangeles and Toronto.

Tang Xiaotang said that the international strategy of Ports 1961 has been very difficult to achieve. At present, the general recognition of baozi is already a domestic brand. Besides, "baozi's positioning is high and medium end, but consumer groups have long been doubtful."
