Asia-Pacific Lingerie Market Outlook, 2028

Asia Pacific is expected to account for the largest revenue share over the forecast period owing to changing consumer preferences and increasing demand for luxury apparel because of the increasing disposable income of its population. One of the key factors driving growth in the Asia Pacific lingerie market is the region's large and diverse population of women. With a total population of over 4 billion people, the Asia-Pacific region is home to a significant proportion of the world's female population. This includes a growing number of young and fashion-conscious women who are increasingly interested in purchasing lingerie that reflects their personal style and preferences. Furthermore, seasonal trends also play an important role in the Asia-Pacific lingerie market and can significantly affect sales and profitability for businesses operating in this industry. The impact of seasonal trends can vary across different countries in the region depending on cultural and societal norms. In general, during festive seasons and holidays, such as Chinese New Year, Christmas, and Eid, there is usually an increase in demand for lingerie products. Consumers may purchase lingerie as a gift or wear it themselves to celebrate the occasion. For example, in China, the colour red is considered lucky and is commonly associated with good fortune and wealth, so during the Chinese New Year Season, there may be a higher demand for red lingerie products. Moreover, seasonal trends can also influence the types of materials and designs used in lingerie products. For instance, during the summer months, consumers may prefer lighter and more breathable materials such as cotton, lace, or mesh, while during the winter, they may opt for thicker and warmer materials such as wool or fleece. Marketing strategies and promotional activities of lingerie brands may also be affected by seasonal trends in the Asia Pacific market. Brands may offer special discounts or promotions during festive seasons or launch limited edition collections featuring designs or colours that are popular during that particular season.

Knickers or panties are a popular product category in the Asia pacific lingerie market and will have the largest market share in 2022. One of the key drivers of growth in the knickers category is the increasing demand for comfortable and functional underwear. Many consumers in the Asia Pacific region prioritize comfort when choosing their lingerie, and knickers are a popular choice due to their soft and breathable fabrics, as well as their range of sizes and styles. In addition to comfort, affordability is another factor driving growth in the knickers category. Many consumers in the region are price-sensitive and seek out affordable lingerie options. Knickers are often priced lower than other lingerie categories such as bras and shapewear, making them an attractive option for price-conscious consumers. The lingerie market in Asia Pacific is divided into segments based on the material used to make lingerie products. Satin, cotton, silk, nylon, and other materials are used. Satin has the largest market share in Asia Pacific. This material is known for its soft, silky feel and luxurious appearance, making it a popular choice among consumers in the region. Furthermore, satin is a breathable, lightweight material that offers a comfortable fit and is suitable for a wide range of lingerie styles. This makes it a popular choice for consumers who prioritise comfort and quality in their lingerie purchases.

Furthermore, nylon is a relatively inexpensive material compared to other options such as silk or satin, making it accessible to a wider range of consumers in the region. This affordability factor has helped to drive demand for nylon lingerie products, particularly among younger consumers who are price-sensitive.
