Abstract: A theoretical model was developed and tested which could be used to predict clothing catalog use by professional women employed as upper- or middle-management or educators. Survey questionnaires were mailed to a nationwide sample of 1,512 professional women who had used clothing catalogs. Questionnaires were returned by 601 (40.6%) and of those, 506 (34.2%) were usable. Consistent with the proposed model to predict catalog use: (1) consumers' demographic and lifestyle profiles with their involvement in specific clothing items were examined; (2) level of involvement with professional clothing versus nonprofessional clothing was tested; and (3) relationships were studied between involvement with specific clothing items and lifestyle.
