Business Of Fashion - January 2024

Dear Readers,
These are transformative times for the business of fashion. Consumer behaviours, digitalisation, discounting impact, supply chain snags and sustainability demands are challenging us. The larger ecosystem has started terming the fashion business as “difficult”, whereas it was seen a couple of decades back as an area of immense opportunity delivering secular growth. As we rethink, reimagine and remodel our industry and become a great force again it’s time to shake off whathas- been and give life to the next Golden Age of Fashion Creation. It’s time to make the business of fashion great again with India Fashion Forum 2024 (IFF).

Launched in the year 2000, IFF, India’s biggest fashion intelligence event, is a powerful blend of conference sessions, workshops and master classes. Zoned exhibitions and industry awards mark IFF’s confluence of the biggest consumer trends, market intelligence and retail innovation in the business of fashion in India.
