Fashion Industry Challenges We Solve
We understand the unique demands of the fashion and apparel industry and build solutions that address them head-on. With a market size of $1.7T global fashion industry, $120B online, thefashion sector demands technology partners who truly understand the industry.
Visual Commerce & Brand Experience
Fashion is fundamentally visual. E-commerce platforms must deliver editorial-quality imagery, lookbook-style browsing, video content, and lifestyle context that communicates brand identity — not just product specs. Page speed must remain fast despite image-heavy layouts.
Size, Fit & Returns Technology
Returns cost the fashion industry $218 billion annually, with 42% driven by poor fit. Solving the fit problem requires virtual try-on technology, AI-powered size recommendations, detailed size charts, and user-generated fit reviews — reducing returns while building confidence in online purchases.
Seasonal Inventory & Fast Fashion Cycles
Fashion operates on 4-8 seasonal collections per year, each requiring inventory planning, markdown management, and demand forecasting months in advance. Fast fashion brands need even faster cycles — designing, producing, and listing new items in weeks, not months.
Influencer & Social Commerce
Fashion brands increasingly sell through influencers and social media. This requires affiliate tracking, social storefront management, UGC integration, live shopping capabilities, and analytics that attribute sales to specific creators and campaigns.
How We Help Fashion Businesses
Our team brings deep fashion domain knowledge combined with technical excellence to deliver solutions that work in the real world — not just in demos.
Stunning Visual Storefronts
We build fashion e-commerce experiences that feel like editorial magazines: full-bleed imagery, lookbook layouts, video backgrounds, and smooth animations — all optimized for performance with lazy loading, WebP images, and CDN delivery.
AR Virtual Try-On & Fit Tech
We integrate augmented reality try-on experiences and AI-powered size recommendation engines that reduce return rates by 25-50%. Our solutions use computer vision, body measurement algorithms, and purchase history data to recommend the right size.
Dynamic Inventory & Merchandising
We build inventory systems that handle seasonal drops, pre-orders, limited editions, and markdown optimization. Our merchandising tools use AI to automatically sort product listings by conversion likelihood and manage dynamic pricing.
Social Commerce Integration
We connect your store to TikTok Shop, Instagram Shopping, and influencer platforms with automated product syncing, affiliate tracking, UGC galleries, and shoppable content that turns social engagement into revenue.
