WGSN was founded in 1998 by former British textile entrepreneurs, brothers Julian and Marc Worth, and is owned by UK trade publisher Emap. Fashion buyers and designers don't need to leave their desks to see the latest collections -- they can do it right from their PCs through the Worth Global Style Network (WGSN). WGSN offers subscription access to apparel, style, design, and retail industry news, as well as reviews, trend reports, and market analysis. The service is targeted at buyers, designers, retailers, marketers, and industry analysts; it has some 36,000 customers. Sister site WGSN-edu.com offers a time-delayed version of the service to fashion and design students for free.
