FPgirl Market Insights Program: Tweens Prefer Clothes Over Bling, and Rank Disney Channel As Their Fan Favorite
Beverly, Massachusetts (PRWEB) April 09, 2013
FashionPlaytes, Inc. today released new data about how tween girls think about fashion, style, entertainment and brands as part of its FPgirl Market Insights Program. Tweens are playing an increasingly active role in how and who they engage with from a brand perspective and are commanding a larger percentage of the family spend on entertainment, technology, fashion and travel.
According to a recent Market Insights poll, nearly 50% tween girls consider clothing as their top fashion item over jewelry, bags or shoes. This data reflects the buying habits tween girls have shown on FPgirl’s e-commerce platform, both in terms of buying behavior but also in the types of fashion choices they make as they engage with the fashion design process. To date, girls have designed over 8 million outfits on FPgirl.com, including everything from dresses and skirts to tops and pants.
FPgirls also prefer Disney Channel over rival Nickelodeon by a nearly 4 to 1 margin, according to a recent poll. In commenting on their entertainment preferences, several girls mentioned the loss of shows such as iCarly and Victorious as a primary driver for their move to the house the mouse built, as well as the popularity of the shows Austin & Ally, Shake It Up, Jessie and Good Luck Charlie. Tween girls are also showing a growing interest in reality-based shows that run on networks such as the Food Network, Animal Planet, HGTV and specifically A&E’s Duck Dynasty. PBS Kids ranked last in the poll, with many girls noting that the content was geared toward a younger audience.
“The girls of Generation Z are clearly tapped into the world around them and can change their preferences and loyalties based on what they see and hear from brands they love, as demonstrated by the shift to Disney following the end of shows they watched on Nickelodeon,” said Andy Komack, Market Insights Program Director. “We expect brands to closely monitor and engage with this key demographic as the market develops to ensure they stay engaged with this highly elusive and in-demand group of girls.”

FPgirl Market Insights Program: Gen Z Girls Prefer Gaming Over Lifestyle Apps and Admire Zendaya Colemans Sense of Style
Beverly, Massachusetts (PRWEB) April 24, 2013
FashionPlaytes, Inc. today released new data on what tween girls think about fashion, style and entertainment as part of its FPgirl Market Insights Program. The data looks at Tech Trends and Fashion Influences and delivers a unique understanding of how tween girls view the world of mobile apps, as well as how they identify their style with celebrities.
Tech Trends: In a world of mobile apps, FPgirls skew heavily to arcade-style games, preferring Temple Run and Subway Surfers over other games, and even other app types. 56% of the over 2,600 voters selected these apps above others such as Instagram, Pandora, Angry Birds and Kik. Although 1 in 5 of the girls selected Instagram as their favorite app, and commented on their love for texting via Kik, the results show an overall high interest in gaming-related apps instead of the lifestyle/ entertainment category.
“We have been exploring how tween girls find and use apps through a series of surveys and polls,” said Andy Komack, FPgirl Market Insights program director. “When we ask girls in an open forum to volunteer apps that they love, they lean heavily to games. When they vote on top apps, the same pattern emerges,” adds Komack. “We are currently working with our community of girls to understand how they find and use apps in the world of fashion. The information we have gathered so far is fascinating, and points to interesting ways that they perceive apps.”
Fashion Influences: FashionPlaytes also gave a sneak peek at their celebrity series of data in the Market Insights program, where Zendaya Coleman was a clear winner in terms of providing fashion inspiration for girls.
“As you might imagine, tween girls rapidly evolve their tastes and preferences,” says Komack. “In an earlier poll, girls clearly stated that they derive fashion inspiration from themselves, instead of from celebrities. At the same time, girls do obviously follow celebrities. We have seen that our girls have moved fluidly between Taylor Swift, Victoria Justice, Lucy Hale, Zendaya Coleman and others in terms of who provides inspiration.” The data about Zendaya Coleman leading the poll is also closely aligned to an earlier poll about favorite TV channels where FPgirls heavily skewed to watching the Disney Channel, where Zendaya reigns, with 70% of their vote.
