ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ON FASHION AND TEXTILES

This article explores the numerous ways artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the fashion and textile industries. From data analysis and personalized marketing to smart manufacturing and sustainability, AI is playing a crucial role in shaping the future of these sectors. The article discusses AI’s applications in areas such as trend forecasting, automated design tools, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), quality control, and intelligent textiles. It also highlights the role of AI in promoting sustainable practices, such as circular fashion models, eco-friendly materials, and waste reduction. The article concludes by addressing the challenges and opportunities presented by AI’s integration into the fashion and textile industries, emphasizing the potential for innovation, efficiency, and sustainability.

FASHBOARD – A SALES ANALYSIS TOOL

In the company, the whole sales analysis process was done manually using the erase-rewrite method in their style sheets to update the sales data after evaluating the heavy-looking excel data and then used to determine the best and poor seller products within a span of time.

The Manthan Dashboard only provided them with the overall sales of the multiple store outlets and the total sales of the Ladies Ethnic Wear. Hence, Analysing the Sales performance within the brand was difficult at the category and article level.

So, we transformed this traditional process by developing an Interactive Excel Dashboard using VBA coding and excel formulas which is dynamic in nature and depicts the best and poor seller product information with a single click. With the help of the dynamic dashboard, we have developed the range for SS’22 (HIT 2). The main findings were that we can easily analyze the sales performance of the previous year and plan for the next year. The result of this project was very fruitful and due to the dynamic nature of the dashboard, it can be implemented into any company by manipulating the source data.

Revolution in Textile Industry

Today, the textile industry is one of the most important industries in the world. Over 17 million tons of all clothing sold in America is produced by it. This $70billion industry exports several million worths annually to other countries and employs over 529,000 workers. Prior to the Industrial Revolution, many people were engaged in handlooms […]

Application of Technical Textiles in Everyday Life

Technical textile end-usage on heat and flame protection fabrics, waterproof fabrics, geotextiles, implantable and non-implantable medical textile materials, extracorporeal devices with technical textiles, and new developments in Technical Textiles

The Modern Era of Technical Textiles

The technical textiles supply chain is a long and complex one, stretching from the manufacturers of polymers for technical fibers, coating, and specialty membranes through to the converters and fabricators who incorporate technical textiles into finished products or use them as an essential part of their industrial operations.

Effluent Treatment Process in Garment Manufacturing

The textile industry is one of the leading sectors in the economy as it contributes to total industrial production. The untreated textile wastewater can cause rapid depletion of dissolved oxygen if it is directly discharged into the surface water sources due to its high BOD value. The effluents with high levels of BOD and COD values are highly toxic to biological life.

The high alkalinity and traces of chromium which is employed in dyes adversely affect the aquatic life and also interfere with the biological treatment processes. The quality of such effluent can be analyzed by their physicochemical and biological analysis. Monitoring of the environmental parameters of the effluent would allow having, at any time, a precise idea on performance evaluation of ETP and if necessary, appropriate measures may be undertaken to prevent adverse impact on the environment. The obtained results will be very much useful in the identification and rectification of operational and maintenance problems and they can be also utilized to establish methods for improvement.
