Next Online Catwalks offer Front Row Shopping For All
Next, the UK high-street retailer/ catalogue company has upped its
fashion credentials by launching an online fashion show as part of it’s
website revamp. The Next online catwalk review envites customers to
‘experience the thrill of shopping from the latest autumn collection
hot off the runway’.
There are currently four catwalk collections to view- High Gloss;
Parisian Chic; Highland Retreat; and Snow Bunny, together summarising
the company’s seasonal trends. Each outfit is shown walking down the
runway alongside a still shot with impressive moveable zoom features, a
line-up of the collection, and the option to click and directly buy any
of the products on view. A simple idea brilliantly executed, this is
the best version of high-street online retailing I’ve seen, offering a
chance to really watch how the clothes move and giving the most
information possible without actually touching the item. Plus, some of
the pieces are surprisingly good- if you can see past the hideous
styling!
