Top Seven #5
This article is a collection of the top 7 posts from the past week and along with it, you will get to hear my thoughts on each post. Join me on a thrilling journey as I explore the latest trends, tech, business, and creativity occurrences that happened in the last week.?
The much-anticipated Fashion Tech Week '23 is where I start my exploration. This event is expected to completely change the style and technology scene in India. Big names in the industry, like Adobe and Tukatech, will be working together with up-and-coming companies at this first event, which not only looks forward to but also offers collaboration and new ideas. As I move on, Thomas Vanderborght gets the spotlight. He marks the start of the new year with a cross-country move that starts the digital transformation of fashion in North America. As I delve into the backstory of his move to New York, I learnt how the innovative technology developed by @Lectra will drive progress in fashion analytics, which will have far-reaching effects on the industry.
Looking ahead to 2024, Sylwia Szymczyk's excitement for AI tools took me to a time where companies like Animate Anyone, Blockade Labs, and Krea AI are promising to revolutionize 3D fashion workflows. The industry's never-ending drive for efficiency and innovation is reflected in the enthusiasm surrounding these technologies. Vishal Yadav's discovery is a turning point that makes the revolutionary combination of AI and digital design even stronger. It signals a future that is both innovative and sustainable. I explored how this integration gives designers greater agency, which in turn allows for more sustainable and inclusive fashion—a clear indication of how far the industry has come.
The journey continues with Carol Vajda, who showed me how computer tools can be used. Going from a rough sketch to a photorealistic presentation, her work showcases efficiency and sustainability by cutting down on the number of physical samples needed. It shows how clothes will be made in the future, with more eco-friendly and simple designs. Seun Akinloye introduces "TheYutes," a Fashion-as-a-Service service that could change the way people around the world measure themselves. This endeavor welcomes a communal effort to make size more fluid and universal, and I explored the issues brought by varied sizing metrics. It's an appeal for fashion to be more open to everyone.
Last but not least, Yash Arya talks about how the government and the business sector can work together to use new technologies. In this compelling demonstration of the power of collaborative invention, I will highlight the critical role of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in propelling growth as I observed the convergence of public programmes and private sector advancements.
An intricate web of creativity, teamwork, and vision emerges as I tread my way through these seven stories. This piece doesn't just talk about trends; it also tells the stories behind the news, highlighting the people whose lives are shaping the future of technology and fashion.

With Fashion Tech Week '23 just around the corner, everyone is buzzing with excitement since this event will mark the beginning of a new era in fashion technology in India. This groundbreaking event is more than just the coming together of fashion and technology. It's a lively tapestry of new ideas, teamwork, and the hope of a promising future.
Imagine a platform that is prepared to welcome both Adobe and Tukatech, two of the most prominent names in the sector, and the smaller tech companies, whose discoveries frequently change the story. It's an important moment that marks a shift towards acceptance, as both new leaders and established ones share the stage, creating a sense of unity among differences.
Rather than being a mere event, Fashion Tech Week '23 extends an invitation to influence the future of fashion technology. Focusing on teamwork isn't just a trendy word; it's a promise to make a place where all ideas, no matter how big or small, can find a home. It's an admission that the next big idea could come from the quick thinking of startups, which is in line with the spirit of innovation that doesn't stop.
The palpable energy around this event, in my opinion, shows how quickly the Indian fashion tech space is changing. The industry isn't just seeing change happen; it's also driving it. There is a planned effort to build bridges between the pioneers and the visionaries, producing a harmonious ecosystem, and the event's openness shows this.
Therefore, let's do more than merely go to Fashion Tech Week '23; let's commit ourselves fully to it. Let's join forces, work together, and write the story that determines the future of Indian fashion and technology. Innovation, after all, isn't something you can watch from the sidelines; on the contrary, it flourishes when each and every one lends a hand.?
Post by: Thomas Vanderborght
Thomas Vanderborght takes a giant leap into the innovation capital of the world—New York City—announcing not only a move but a significant leap into the year 2024. This isn't going to be your average New Year's resolution; it's going to be a life-altering adventure that will change the face of the fashion business in North America by embracing digital transformation.
As Thomas takes on the task of guiding Lectra's state-of-the-art technology into new frontiers, picture the city lights, the hum of innovation, and the skyline of possibilities. Moving to a new city isn't just a change of scenery; it's a smart move toward the center of fashion and technology around the world. New York City's charm serves as a stage for Thomas's career pursuits and the fashion tech industry's future. Using Retviews AI Market Intelligence & Fashion Analytics to promote digital transformation is more than simply a duty; it's a declaration of faith in the transformative power of data, analytics, and technological foresight.
Then there's the invitation: an event on a rooftop with a view of the New York City skyline. It's not just an offer; it's a handshake between businesses. In a city that loves to break new ground, you can see how fashion and technology are coming together. Thomas's move isn't just about changing zip codes, in my opinion; it's about spreading the idea of innovation around the world. It shows that the digital transformation of fashion isn't limited by countries; it's a global dance, and New York is the stage.
Post by: Sylwia Szymczyk
Using a palette of AI wonders to look into the future, Sylwia Szymczyk draws a vivid picture of the new ideas that will be coming to 3D fashion in 2024. The journey is more than just tools; each piece of AI magic she uses opens up new ways for her to be creative.
With its live canvas feature, Krea AI steals the show, inspiring Sylwia to quickly draw and imagine 3D things. It's more than just a tool; it's an extension of her artistic intuition and a virtual partner who helps her bring ideas that are only thoughts to life. Imagine being able to use your ideas and have direct control over the canvas. This makes it possible for artists and technology to work together in a smooth way.
As Blockade Labs takes the stage, they boast the ability to develop detailed 3D worlds and HDR environments. Besides making 3D clothes look better, the goal is to create fashion environments that are more realistic. The fashion business is always trying to push the limits, and Sylwia is no exception. She is testing the mesh and texture quality that will change the way digital fashion looks.
Furthermore, there is the excitement regarding Animate Anyone. The name says it all: it's a tool that could change the way videos are made and cut the time it takes to make them in half. In addition to saving time, there is also the possibility of incorporating AI into 3D movies in a way that makes them dynamic storytelling platforms.

A key part of Sylwia's journey, in my view, is welcoming collaborators who enhance creativity, rather than only embracing tools. It's proof that AI and human minds work in perfect harmony, where progress is never stopped but rather an exhilarating journey towards new frontiers.
Post by: Vishal Yadav
Beginning a trip through the virtual ateliers of fashion, Vishal Yadav tells a story in which AI threads are carefully woven into the very fabric of design. It's not enough to just change things; fashion itself needs to be redefined.
AI becomes the silent muse in Vishal's story, whispering new ideas to designers and makers. It is more than just a tool; it is a partner that brings ideas to life and goes beyond the limits of normal design. The sketches on digital canvases are no longer still; they move and pulse with the energy of AI programs, making a creative symphony.
I really like how Vishal's perspective focuses on sustainability. "Eco-friendly" isn't just a buzzword; it's a pledge to fashion that doesn't hurt the environment. AI isn't just a partner in creativity; it's also a guardian of ethical behavior, leading the industry to a future where new ideas and morals go hand in hand. Vishal's post shows how technology can change things when used with care, in my view. Fashion is about more than just following trends; it's about bringing about a more ethical, inclusive, and sustainable fashion industry.
Post by: Carol Vajda
Entering Carol Vajda's digital studio is like stepping into another world, where ideas transform into live, breathing designs and sketches go beyond paper. In her story, digital tools aren't just instruments; they're like magic wands that can make clothes appear out of thin air.
The journey Carol took me on from a simple sketch to a photorealistic showpiece is more than just a show of technical skill; it's a reveal of what's possible. Any pixel can be used to be creative in the digital world, and they all add to the overall beauty of the design. Not only does this digital chemistry work well, but it also has the potential to last for a long time. Cutting down on physical samples isn't just a sensible move; it's also a thoughtful step towards a more eco-friendly fashion world. It's a nod to a future where environmental worries don't get in the way of creativity, but instead, technology makes creativity powerful enough to make the world a better place.
I don't think Carol's post is just a collection of beautiful designs; I think it's a plan for how fashion will change in the future. It's an invitation to use digital tools not only because they are convenient, but also because they can help with sustainability and new ideas.
Post by: Seun Akinloye
Amidst the confusing and expansive world of fashion sizing, Seun Akinloye stands out as an innovator, introducing "TheYutes" - a guiding light amidst the multitude of different measurements. In addition to making an announcement, his post serves as a rallying cry for fashion fans throughout the world to confront a challenge.
It's more than a solution; TheYutes is a movement. Finding the right size is a constant challenge, as Seun reveals as he delves into the nuances of sizing (US, the UK, the EUR). The real magic, though, takes place right here. It is our collective responsibility as the fashion community, Seun says, to bring about positive change.
Beyond being a revelation, Seun's piece is an effort at collaboration, in my view. He turns what seems like an individual battle into a group effort by contacting the LinkedIn fam. There is strength in numbers, and the need for insights is more than just lip service. Rather than merely revolutionizing the fashion industry, "TheYutes" aims to make it accessible to everybody. Not via the imposition of standards but through the incorporation of the varied knowledge of the worldwide fashion community, the goal is to create a size that is seamless and universal.
Post by: Yash Arya
An eye-opening look at how public policies and private sector innovations interact is provided by Yash Arya's piece. This is no ordinary get-together; rather, it is the beginning of a historic partnership, the joining of forces of brilliant minds that will propel our country into the future of cutting-edge technology.
To me, Yash's post serves as a gentle reminder that moving forward isn't something you do alone. The public and private sectors work together, each contributing their own set of skills and knowledge. This coming together is exemplified by CyberCorp Limited, the India Blockchain Alliance, and the Emerging Technology Council.
It is worth mentioning the focus on MSMEs in particular. Yash portrays them as agents of change rather than merely mentioning them. Modern solutions in many fields, including healthcare, fashion tech, artificial intelligence, educational technology, virtual digital assets (VDA), infrastructure, and governance, rely heavily on the astute observations of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs). Essentially, the post by Yash Arya isn't merely about a gathering; it's about the merging of concepts, the common goal of a future enriched by technology. The future is founded on the partnerships we build now, and it's a celebration of teamwork.
As we go through all of these varied and influential postings, a complex web of creativity, teamwork, and insight begins to take shape. Every post adds a new angle to the story of how fashion and technology are constantly changing. These posts show the way forward in a world where things change quickly and trends appear and disappear. The unrelenting quest of advancement is a consistent thread throughout different contexts, from the excitement surrounding AI tools to the determination to revolutionize size in fashion, from personal journeys of relocation and exploration to the expectation surrounding innovative events like Fashion Tech Week '23.
