A city’s economy and fashion industry have significant impacts on its development. This paper mainly focuses on exploring how a city’s economy and fashion industry influence mutually. The fashion industry provides citizens with job opportunities and attracts famous companies and celebrities. It also serves as a platform for creativity and innovation, promoting the city’s economic growth and international influence. Since the fashion industry needed to be supported by the advanced economy, and a city’s economy also needed the fashion industry to promote it through investment and trade, they had influence mutually. Through investigations, a city’s economic growth pace is similar to the development of it’s fashion. The research findings emphasize the importance of fostering a strong relationship between a city's economy and its fashion industry in order to stimulate economic growth and enhance the city's international influence. This study highlights the innovative and creative nature of the fashion industry. The findings of this study can provide valuable insights for policymakers and industry professionals, enabling them to make informed decisions in supporting the growth of both the city's economy and the fashion industry. Furthermore, this research contributes to the existing literature by deepening the understanding of the interconnection between economic development and the fashion industry. Overall, this study emphasizes the significance of a symbiotic relationship between a city's economy and its fashion industry and the potential benefits that can be gained from fostering this relationship.
