“…In terms of theoretical contribution, this paper makes an original connection between four topics: motivations of inter-industry creative collaborations (Blackett and Boad, 1999;Dorozola and Kohlbrenner, 2008;Breckenfeld, 2009;Washburn et al, 2000), major category assets of consumer-based brand equity (Aaker, 1996), consumers' attitudes towards inter-industry creative collaborations ( James, 2006) and the creative and emotional elements of luxury fashion (Tungate, 2009;Chadha and Husband, 2006;Okonkwo, 2007;Thomas, 1993). It provides a useful starting point for further empirical research to test the validity and reliability of the model outside of the stated cases.…”
