When we enter the mall, the first store we all look out for is Zara. It’s been our favourite brand when it comes to finding the latest trends or when we just need a reason to shop impulsively! So we thought it’ll be fun to know a few facts about Zara that you had no idea about. Time to up your Zara IQ, ladies!
1. Zara was initially named Zorba
We wonder what that would have been like. Hmmm.
2. But it was changed because a local bar had the same name
A bar’s name is what it took for a brand SO big to change its name!
3. The company has a team of designers who work on constantly changing and editing designs based on customer feedback.
Phew! Finally there’s someone to hear us out.
4. Spain is the only country in which ZARA is pronounced as ‘Tha-ra’.
El español es demasiado bueno para la escuela! (The Spanish are too cool for school!)
5. Zara doesn’t pair up with big designers
The company doesn’t believe in promoting any single name or talent. The brand name is most important and a bunch of designers work collectively towards it.
6. Kate Middleton LOVES Zara!
Even royals love the brand!
7. Zara can create and distribute new designs in just 1-2 weeks
WOW! That is a whole new level of being efficient!
8. The brand doesn’t believe in advertising too much
It’s believed that Zara doesn’t spend much on advertising and instead focusses on opening stores near high end retailers.
9. Zara home was launched in 2003
So you can pretty up your home too!
10. Zara launches around 12,000 new designs in a year!
How we wish we owned each one of them. *sigh*
