The Berlin-based company has already attracted 100,000 customers in just two years, and is now looking at a European-wide expansion. Good news for the men who shudder at the thought of shopping. There's a much easier way to look dapper now - online stylists. Outfittery is a Berlin-based company that employs around 50 women, and a handful of male stylists to help men choose their outfits for work and leisure. Co-founder Julia Bosh explains why an online-curated shopping service works. "Usually men don't enjoy shopping so much, they rather spend their Saturdays with family and friends and watching football than going shopping. So, we take the pain out of shopping for them and just do the job for them," she said. According to a 2013 study by investment banking firm Goldman Sachs, global e-commerce sales have increased by around 19 percent per year from 2011 to 2013. Men's online shopping now racks up about 963 billion U.S. dollars. And it appears that a lot of men still want a woman's help with their fashion choices. One stylist from Outfittery, Maria Ahrens, says the key to success is to get to know who she's shopping for. "You just try to get to know your customer very well. So you can pick the clothes that fit his personal style and of course his current needs." But on the central shopping streets of Berlin, the opinions about the value of online female stylists are divided. "No it is not for me. I prefer to find my own things," shopper Thomas Ries said. In the U.S., a similar company, Trunk Club, is now delivering to 48 states. According to a 2013 study by research company eMarketer, the clothing market is the fastest growing online segment in the U.S. market. 本栏目更多同类内容 扫码关注和谐英语微信公众号,第一时间获取最新学习资料 或公众号搜索myhxen 上一篇 中国首个私营电信开始运营 下一篇 2万八千本古书归还中国 相关文章 双十二购物节中国的新的在线地图服务系统投入使用政府和高校帮助学生找工作中国有能力帮助其他国家接种疫苗在线教育市场将在2016年爆发中国的网上购物高峰走向全球双十一购物节将至 投诉增多在线平台节省出口成本战时海外华人帮助运送物资移动应用程序可以帮助自闭症孩子沟通
