Abstract

In the process of changing the sportswear industry from functional orientation to lifestyle, Lululemon has broken through the vertical track of yoga and grown into the third sports brand with global market value by its unique brand positioning and community marketing strategy. Lululemon seized the double opportunity of the popularization of yoga and the rise of the “Athleisure” (sports leisure) trend and cut into the market with “high-end yoga clothes”, redefining the consumption logic of sportswear-upgrading from a single functional demand to a lifestyle carrier of “self-expression and community belonging”. By analysing the market positioning and brand strategy of Lululemon brand, this paper points out the importance of digital marketing, puts forward suggestions for the future marketing strategy and development direction, and gives a reference for the development of other brands.
