The global pet clothing market size was valued at USD 5.56 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 5.79 billion in 2024 and reach USD 8.97 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period. North America dominated the pet clothing market with a market share of 33.63% in 2023. Moreover, the pet clothing market size in the U.S. reaching an estimated value of USD 1.90 billion by 2032, driven by the increasing demand for sustainably-made pet clothing.


People largely prefer to have luxurious outfits for their pets. Wearing decorative collars and shirts by the canines enhances their pet owner’s standard of living in society. Nowadays, associated companies offer various luxurious outfits such as shirts, hoodies, and others to make it easy for people to beautify their pet dogs and cats with such outfits. This, in turn, helps companies to build their brand image. For instance, in November 2019, Moncler Spa, a France-based sports wearable products manufacturer, collaborated with an Italian clothing store, Poldo dog Couture, to introduce a pint-sized collection of dog outfits consisting of raincoats, gilets, and vests.


At a macro level, demographic shifts, notably across Asian markets, toward smaller households encourage numerous individuals to substitute the familial gap by buying a pet, accelerating the demand for pet clothing. Furthermore, rising consumer disposable incomes translate into increasing spending on pet clothing and accessories across countries. An increasing number of pet sitters worldwide encourage individuals to buy/adopt pets, favoring the global market expansion.


The uncertain occurrence of the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions resulted in the shutting down of garment shops and grocery stores in many countries across the globe, hampering supply chain operations and the product demand. For instance, in November 2020, Pet Valu Inc., an animal food & apparel supplies retailer, closed its 358 retail stores and a warehouse in the U.S. due to the severe impact of COVID-19 lockdown restrictions on its business. However, robust product sales through the e-commerce channels helped numerous industry participants to sustain their businesses amid the COVID-19 crisis.


Pet Clothing Market Trends


Increasing Demand for Sustainable Clothing Products to Favor Growth


The shifting consumer trend towards buying apparel made up of recycled or plant-based fabric such as cotton, hemp, and others for their pets is likely to drive the demand for sustainable products. Nowadays, guardians prefer to shop for recently available fashionable outfits, matching design patterns & colors for themselves and their pets. Therefore, the growing trend of wearing such outfits is expected to bode well for the global pet clothing industry growth.


Several dogs such as Labrador, golden retrievers, and others feel uncomfortable playing or doing other activities when wearing fashionable suits.  Hence, the increasing demand for buying comfortable and multipurpose outfits is expected to provide newer market growth opportunities. Besides, the growing festival celebration trends are likely to drive the demand for cat and dog festival costumes such as hanfus, and Santa suits.


From a design standpoint, graphic prints, twinning combinations, and bright colors are emerging as key trends across domestic and international markets. The increasing popularity of social media makes twinning with a cat/dog a gripping trend worldwide.

Pet Clothing Market Growth Factors


Increasing Focus on Promotional Pet Clothing Campaigns to Aid Growth


The recent introduction of pet apparel campaigns by the associated companies is likely to attract people towards buying pet clothing items. This is expected to boost the market growth in the forthcoming years. For instance, in December 2018, Monse, the U.S.-based apparel manufacturer, in collaboration with the Walt Disney Company, launched Pre Fall 2019, a campaign that displays the photoshoot of well outfitted, rescued dogs to attract the guardians towards buying such apparels for their rescued dogs.


The growing pet humanization rate is expected to drive the demand for such items. According to the Insurance Information Institute data, cat ownership in the United States increased from 38.9 million in 2012 to 42.7 million in 2019. Moreover, the increasing on-demand video consumption related to the animal grooming tips and tricks by the people on the various social media sites and applications such as YouTube, Facebook, and others is expected to fuel the demand for such products.


Rising Demand for Pet Subscription Box Services to Aid Market Growth


Nowadays, people largely prefer to avail subscription box-related services as they can regularly receive toys, costumes, and treats for their pets. The unique gift boxes are expected to create interest among pet owners. This is expected to boost the demand for such services. For instance, in 2020, CouponFollow, an online hub of collecting coupon codes and promotions, reported that 51% of U.S. owners availed subscription box-related services for their pets.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Cost Incurred during R&D of Pet Clothing to Restrain Market Growth


The increasing need for R&D investments in developing flexible and comfortable animal apparel is expected to restrain the market growth. Additionally, the higher cost of luxurious animal clothing and the greater accessibility of low-cost shirts and tops for the lower and middle-income community is likely to hamper the product revenues. Moreover, huge competition from the local and unorganized pet industry players is anticipated to hamper the prominent business growth of several companies. Thereby, these factors are likely to hamper market growth.

Shirts and Tops Segment Holds a Major Market Share


The shirts and top segment are expected to hold a major share of the market owing to the increasing preference for essential clothing to calm the pets from the anxiety of cold and fireworks. Additionally, the growing trend towards buying shirts and tops of similar colors & design patterns for themselves and the animals by the owners is expected to bide well for the market growth.


People essentially purchase sweaters and hoodies for their cats and dogs as these products can protect pets from cold, fever & throat infections by covering their whole body.

Moreover, the easy accessibility of different colored animal hoodies is driving the growth of the segment.


The growing preference for weather protection coats and jackets of different categories such as windbreakers, cooling coats, raincoats, snowsuits, etc., by pet owners, is expected to contribute to the growth of the coats and jackets segment in the forthcoming years.

For instance, in September 2020, Dsquared2, an Italian apparel brand in partnership with Poldo Dog Couture, an apparel retailer, introduced an entire line of fashionable dog clothing in Italy.


The cat segment is expected to showcase considerable growth during the forecast period.
