Abstract

The importance of brands lies in their ability to establish emotional connections with consumers, therefore, fashion studies address relevant aspects such as gender, class and culture, highlighting that fashion transcends simple clothing and reflects social changes. This study investigates the relationship between various variables; as well as Brand Experience, Brand Trust, Brand Authenticity, Brand Attachment, Brand Loyalty and Brand Equity in the context of the Ecuadorian centennial consumer, seeking to identify which variable has the greatest impact on brand loyalty and perception in relation to the approach that the Ecuadorian centennial consumer has. Consequently, this research has an empirical study, a quantitative approach and in turn its scope of exploratory nature and in turn the technique to be used will be the analysis of SEM-PLS results (structural equation models) in order to determine how many variables positively influence the model to be studied.
