Abstract:

To better understand how fast fashion brand image influences consumer's purchasing intention, a structure model including brand image, brand identification, fashion consciousness and purchasing intention was built. Through the questionnaire survey from 430 consumers,this paper used structural model and Bootstrap analysis to test the research hypothesis. The result finds out that product image, consumer image and corporate image have a significant impact on customer's purchasing intention, and the brand identification plays an intermediary role between them. In addition,fashion consciousness plays a significant moderating role in the impact of product image and corporate image on brand identification and purchasing intention, but the moderating effect among the relationship of customer image, brand identification and purchasing intention is not significant.The results may become the theoretical basis and reference for fast fashion enterprise strengthening consumer's brand purchasing intention.

Key words: fast fashion, brand image, brand identification, fashion consciousness, purchasing intention
