Corroboration: 1 independent outlet

Aditya Birla Lifestyle Brands-owned Peter England has launched VYBE, a sub-label targeting Gen Z shoppers with faster product drops, creator-led marketing and a focus on complete outfits rather than standalone categories. Chief business officer Anand Aiyer told ETRetail that younger consumers want 'looks' they can mix and match, and expects to refresh store merchandise on every visit. The move comes as legacy apparel brands struggle to hold the attention of a generation that discovers fashion on social media and shops more frequently. VYBE will initially launch in 50 Peter England stores and on Myntra. Aiyer said the company is adopting a faster merchandise cycle but stopped short of calling it fast fashion. Marketing will rely on digital channels and an original rap album instead of television commercials.
