As retail outlook dims, mall tenants are pushing for shorter leases. Contracts have dropped from 5-10 years to 1-2 years, and with over a dozen bankruptcies to date and a projected nine to ten thousand stores to close this year, it seems like the best option is to now run your business online.

Google digitalises fashion with its new app
Google arts and culture rolled out We Wear Culture which is a digital reference tool which uses information from all over the world. It is a great way for students and fashion enthusiasts to experience parts of fashion and the world that they may not have access too. After playing around with it over the weekend, I found it to be a great source of inspiration especially when you may not have the resources at your current disposal.
