Global Fashion Buyers Make a Confident Comeback
International fashion wholesale buying surged by 18% in Q3 2025, according to a new report from Joor. The platform, which connects brands and retailers worldwide, revealed that Europe and Asia led the charge in this impressive rebound. After a challenging period for the industry, this growth signals a return of confidence among fashion buyers across the globe.

Europe and Asia Lead, US Lags Behind
Europe and Asia are now the driving forces in global fashion wholesale, showing robust demand and renewed trust in the market. Meanwhile, US retailers continue to see a decline, suggesting that not all regions are feeling the same level of optimism. Still, the overall uptick is a breath of fresh air for designers, brands, and buyers who have weathered tough times.
Who knew fashion buyers could bounce back faster than my motivation on a Monday morning? It’s inspiring to see the global industry shaking off uncertainty and strutting confidently into a brighter future. Europe and Asia are clearly ready to shop ‘til they drop—America, time to catch up!
