The complete ranking compiled by Lyst Index
August 1st, 2019
The online search engine Lyst launched in May a new section called "Index", which publishes quarterly reports in the form of rankings, to understand users' habits and searches on the web regarding fashion.
We showed you the rankings of the most desired men's and women's items by 5 million users who search for and buy online fashion items in over 12,000 boutiques and online stores every month. Lyst Index also analyzes social media, taking into account the growth of followers of brand accounts, the mentions on different platforms of products, brands, and keywords related to them, as well as the sentiment. Now it's time to understand which brands were most in-demand from April to June.
Among the 20 most searched brands, the last 3 places are occupied by Balmain, Yeezy, and Moschino, the latter rising compared to the first quarter (Q1) thanks also to collaborations with Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. In 17th place Moncler, which in recent months has announced a new chapter of the Genius project, preceded by adidas - up to three positions - and by Palm Angels, market leader thanks to the collaboration with Under Armor.
Givenchy remains stable in the fourteenth position, while 13, 12 and 11 are held respectively by Dolce & Gabbana, which became the first luxury brand to enlarge sizes up to 50, Burberry and Vetements, worn by Kim Kardashian during her speech at the White House.
