Fashion products are characterized by high variability in terms of rapidly changing consumer preferences. Consumers express their emotions on social networks such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. The main objective of this paper is to explore Twitter data for recognizing customer sentiments about fashion brands and to analyze their overall perception towards the brands. Two brands, Zara and Levis, are considered and users' tweets related to these brands are analyzed using text mining and Naïve Bayes classifier. The results from this study suggest that social media such as Twitter can serve to be the repository of consumer sentiments and opinions. Sentiment analysis of the tweets can indicate fashion trend and thereby enable fashion brand companies to quickly respond to the ever changing consumer demands.
