The business wear segment led the industry market with a substantial market share in 2022, which is attributed to a rise in the number of officegoers across the globe comprising both women and men coupled with the increasing people spending power, improved employment rate, and widespread availability of better services offering by several new and established market players.

The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to be the fastest growing region with a healthy CAGR over the coming years, owing to a surge in the population burden and a rapid increase in the rate of urbanization across several emerging economies, including China, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia.
