By: Sakshi Ranjan, guided by Nilima Regina Topno, delves into the transformative impact of technology on the fashion industry.

In recent years, the fashion industry has witnessed a profound transformation, thanks to the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into its fabric. This marriage of technology and style has led to unprecedented advancements, reshaping the way fashion is designed, produced, marketed, and consumed.

By 2023, the worldwide AI in fashion market reached an approximate value of USD 795.7 Million and is forecasted to achieve USD 23,936.3 Million by 2033, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 40.55%. This notable expansion is credited to AI solutions and services that optimize creative workflows and operational effectiveness across the industry.

Traditionally, fashion designers relied on their creativity and intuition to conceptualize new collections. However, with the advent of AI-powered tools, designers now have access to sophisticated algorithms that analyse vast amounts of data, ranging from historical trends to social media engagement. These insights enable designers and brands to create more targeted and trend-responsive designs, minimizing guesswork and maximizing consumer appeal. Through predictive analytics and machine learning algorithms, manufacturers can optimize production schedules, inventory management, and supply chain logistics. This not only reduces waste but also enables brands to respond swiftly to shifts in consumer demand, thereby minimizing overproduction and excess inventory. To maintain a leading edge in the fashion landscape, one notable brand that entered Indian market with AI is the shirt dandy (TSD).

Established in Vienna in 2022, this brand endeavours to revolutionize men’s approach to fashion by seamlessly blending innovation, heritage, and sustainability into every garment. Co-founded by Thomas Hebenstreit and Aayush Sharma, TSD’s mission is straightforward: to simplify the process of shirt shopping. Introducing cutting-edge technology, such as their AI driven 3D Configurator, TSD aims to redefine the fashion experience. With a fusion of advanced technology, impeccable craftsmanship, and a dedication to exceptional service, TSD emerges as a pioneer in the evolving fashion landscape. Thomas Hebenstreit, CEO & Founder, TSD, quoted, “In the Indian market, we are causing a stir with our ground breaking AI-driven 3D configurator. This innovative technology from Italy allows customers to customize shirts online, offering personalized experiences with a wide range of styles, fabrics, and detailing options.

Our goal is to revolutionize the Indian apparel sector by redefining how men interact with fashion. Through the integration of advanced technology, exceptional craftsmanship, and a steadfast commitment to outstanding service, we aim to streamline the shirt buying process like never before. Continuously expanding our product line up, we aspire to become the ultimate destination for refined clothing. We are dedicated to making premium-quality garments accessible and affordable for individuals who appreciate life’s luxuries. Looking ahead, our vision includes establishing a thriving franchise network, with our digital store fronts expanding nationwide in the foreseeable future.”

Furthermore, AI has transformed the retail experience, both online and offline. E-commerce platforms leverage AI-driven recommendation engines to personalize product recommendations based on individual preferences, browsing history, and purchase behaviour. This enhances the shopping experience, leading to higher conversion rates and customer satisfaction. The influence of AI extends beyond design and retail to marketing and brand management.

AI algorithms analyse consumer data to identify emerging trends, predict future demand, and optimize marketing campaigns. This data-driven approach enables brands to tailor their messaging to specific demographics, increase brand loyalty, and drive sales. The fusion of fashion and AI represents a paradigm shift in the industry, ushering in a new era of innovation, efficiency, and consumer-centricity. By harnessing the power of AI, fashion brands can unlock new opportunities for creativity, sustainability, and profitability while addressing the evolving needs and preferences of today’s discerning consumers. As technology continues to evolve, the future of fashion promises to be both cutting-edge and conscientious, driven by the transformative potential of AI.

Business tycoon, Sudha Reddy of Hyderabad set the ramp ablaze as she turned showstopper for ace Indian couturier, Neeta Lulla for the ritzy grand finale of the 6th edition of the Bangalore Times Fashion Week hosted at JW Marriott.
Inspired by Victorian fashion, she looked surreal and divine as she sashayed down the ramp in a bespoke outfit that took over 200 hours of intricate craftsmanship. Widely known for her compassionate disposition, Reddy ensured she coupled her innate passion for philanthropy with her admiration for fashion. Backing the event’s theme of conscious fashion, she also ensured the finale show put a deserving spotlight on the frontline workers with female officers of the Bengaluru police force viz. K . Rajeshwari, Shivarathna S, M.C.Kavitha and Kavitha G M who joined her on the ramp for the final bow, a unique initiative embraced for the very first time at a fashion event.

It was indeed an inspiring moment to watch each of these female champions welcomed with much positivity and pride as they received a standing ovation from the seated audience whilst they were being felicitated and applauded.
Reddy who recently grabbed headlines for her appearance at the Met Gala this year has been actively working towards the upliftment of humankind 365 days in a year.

Sudha Reddy states, “I am very happy that I creatively aligned with one of my favourite fashion inspirations, Neeta Lulla, someone who champions strong independent women through her work. The collection speaks the language of unadulterated romance but also celebrates the power of a woman. A woman can be anything – a homemaker, an entrepreneur, and also a balanced mix of both. I am very happy to be representing the current generation of women who are fearless and yet feminine and who can run a home, go to work and unflinchingly follow their passions. I’m honoured to have received the opportunity to infuse a sense of purpose with something as mainstream as fashion and celebrate the efforts of the frontline warriors who have been nothing less than heroes during the pandemic.”
