Personal Style and Fashion Shopping Attitudes Survey
Explores how people relate to clothing, what actually drives a purchase decision, and where sustainability and price trade off in the real world. An AI follow-up interview digs into the story behind a recent purchase to separate stated values from actual behavior — built for fashion brands, retailers, and trend researchers.

In the last 3 months, how often have you bought a new clothing item (including online)?
- Not at all

How satisfied are you with your current wardrobe overall?
In the last 12 months, which of these have you done? Select all that apply.
- Bought secondhand or vintage clothing
- Sold or donated clothes I no longer wear
- Researched a brand's labor or environmental practices before buying
- Repaired or altered a garment instead of replacing it
- Rented an outfit instead of buying
How willing are you to pay more for a clothing item if it's made sustainably or ethically?
Reconstruct the story of the respondent's most recent clothing purchase: what triggered it, which factor from their top priorities actually tipped the decision, and whether price or sustainability ever came up in the moment. If they rated high willingness to pay more for sustainability but their behaviors suggest otherwise, gently probe that gap and ask what would need to change for them to act on it.

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Includes an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs the story behind a respondent's most recent clothing purchase, separating stated values from actual behavior rather than relying only on fixed-choice answers
- Combines a matrix of purchase-decision drivers, a max-diff trade-off exercise, and a constant-sum budget allocation to triangulate what people actually prioritize versus what they claim to prioritize
- Directly measures the sustainability-price trade-off with a dedicated opinion-scale question on willingness to pay more, paired with follow-up probing rather than a single static rating
- Automated per-response quality scoring and an auto-generated report mean fashion brands and retailers get analysis-ready output without manually coding open-ended responses
QuestionPro
21+ Fashion Questions to Ask in a Survey + Sample Questionnaire TemplateThis is primarily an educational guide listing sample fashion survey questions rather than a ready-to-field interactive template. It's useful as a question bank for building a survey manually, but doesn't ship as a deployable respondent experience on its own. Structure and depth depend on how a user assembles the listed questions.
What it does well
- Offers a broad list of fashion-related sample questions covering multiple attitude and behavior angles
- Backed by QuestionPro's established survey platform for building and distributing the assembled questionnaire
- Content framed for general market research use, not tied to one narrow use case
Where it falls short
- Presented as a static question list/guide rather than a pre-built, fielding-ready template with logic already configured
- No adaptive AI follow-up interview to probe the story behind a specific purchase decision
- No published methodology or prompt transparency for how questions were selected or scored
SurveyMonkey
Online Shopping Survey: Questions & TemplateA ready-to-use template focused on online shopping attitudes broadly, with some overlap in purchase-driver and satisfaction questions relevant to clothing shopping. It's a fielding-ready static questionnaire rather than fashion-specific or interview-based. Good for quick deployment but shallower on category-specific nuance like sustainability-price trade-offs in apparel.
What it does well
- Fielding-ready template that can be deployed quickly on SurveyMonkey's platform
- Covers general online shopping attitudes and satisfaction, applicable across product categories
- Benefits from SurveyMonkey's established distribution and reporting tools
Where it falls short
- Fixed question set with no adaptive AI follow-up to dig into the story behind a specific recent purchase
- Not fashion-specific, so lacks apparel trade-off tools like max-diff or constant-sum budget allocation for clothing categories
- No transparent prompt methodology or automated per-response quality scoring
