In order to gather data, a web-based survey was made. The data has been analysed through univariate and bivariate analysis. The statistical analyses that were used to measure the relationship between the variables were Chi-Square and cross tabulations. The results show that TikTok, in combination with other social media, influences consumers to buy more fast fashion. It was however concluded that TikTok alone does not contribute to an increased consumption of fast fashion. Furthermore, the results show that TikTok is the app consumers mainly use to follow fashion trends. (Less)
