Haute Couture and fast fashion are rubbing shoulders in the list of the world’s biggest apparel brands. Some sports clothing makers also rank towards the top. Nike is the biggest of the bunch at a brand value of almost $35 billion and also one of the highest market capitalizations.
When it comes to the highest market caps, French luxury conglomerate LVMH – parent company of Louis Vuitton – is taking the top spot
The parent company of Japanese fashion brand Uniqlo, Fast Retailing, recently reached a market capitalization of $103 billion, surpassing industry behemoth Inditex – the parent of Zara.
