How would you like to Fashion Technology?

Emerging designers who have all the talent and charm to start a fashion company cannot afford to sell at the traditional boutiques/wholesaler stores. Therefore they turn to the popular new way of fashion retailing – internet retailing.

As technology advances, many companies have incorporated Business Technology Management (BTM) into their business model. Meanwhile, fashion companies are not left behind.

In 2004, Chanel won Company of the Year for Excellence in Packaging, all thanks to their Global Research and Technology department that continues to innovate new technology to enhance product packaging.

 Not only does this apply to the outside of a product, but it also is applicable to the garment production process itself. Major fashion designers such as Prabal Gurung have found innovative machinery that would produce high quality garments efficiently.

It is evident that BTM is a great way to revolutionize innovation since many brands have increased profits after the integration. These methods can provide fashion businesses with more insight on consumer tastes and data, which is a valuable asset to a company.

All these major fashion houses have demonstrated the benefits of BTM, proving to new designers that technology is a possible and profitable way of managing a business.

    The more I learn about the environmental cost of fast fashion, the harder it is to overlook the fact that so much waste comes from clothes designed to fall apart quickly. That pushed me to search for outdoor wear that actually lasts, and I eventually came across https://www.redelk.it/en/
    . What immediately caught my attention is that their clothing isn’t made with a “one season and done” mindset — it’s created to hold up for years. The jackets, thermal layers, and hiking pants use tough, weather-resistant materials that stand up to rain, friction, and constant movement, so you’re not cycling through replacements all the time. On top of that, the styles are classic enough that they still look current long after trends move on. It just feels like a healthier way to buy clothing: fewer pieces, but ones that can handle everyday use, travel, and time outdoors without wearing out or getting tossed in the trash after a short phase.
