German term or phrase: Lifestyle-Segmentierung
Context:

"Lassen Sie sich von den Themenwelten der Messe faszinieren und tauchen Sie ein in die weltweit einzigartige Lifestyle-Segmentierung."

This is about a fashion trade fair. A literal translation, i.e. "the most unique/incredible lifestyle segmentation in the world" would seem to be fairly meaningless to me.

* Sentence or paragraph where the term occurs: See above
* Document type: Press release/flyer
* Target audience: Trade fair visitors
* Country and dialect (source): German
* Country and dialect (target): British English

Lose yourself to the worldwide unequalled array of lifestyles we have laid out for you.

(I used "array" and "laid out" to capture "Segmentierung")
