Sažetak
Generation Z introduces new behaviour patterns that bring new challenges for retailers. It is the youngest group of consumers, whose attitudes and behaviour have a great influence on the retail strategy formation across all distribution channels. Information on the target group characteristics, as well as their attitudes and habits in online shopping for fashion products, is crucial for every retailer involved in fashion goods. The aim of this paper is to explore the attitudes and habits of Z generation customers in online shopping for fashion products across Croatian young customers. Fashion products include clothing, footwear, and fashion accessories for all occasions. Fashion products have always been the most attractive products to purchase and for that reason their presence is strong online as well. The qualitative research was conducted through group interviews. Three focus groups included respondents born in 1994 and later. Most of the respondents of the Z generation were students of professional studies programme. Results indicated the existence of polarity of opinions and attitudes among respondents towards the online fashion products purchase. Particularly interesting is the attitude of some respondents towards payment methods in online shopping that indicates further distrust in online payment. Since the purchasing power of gene Z is expected to increase over time, marketers need to understand their behaviour and adjust company marketing activities according to specific requirements of this generation
