siliconindia | | MAY 20234The retail sector is undergoing a sea of evolutions today, despite the inflation and geopolitical tensions looming around. Given the deluge of color, design, and diverse fashion styles, the Indian clothing and textile industry has much to offer to consumers, while sustainability and digitization are the two major categories that are set to drive change in fashion trends in the future. With definite and enhancing market platforms like e-Commerce and several other platforms, the clothing and fash-ion industry is profusely expanding.At a basic level, fast fashion is defined as `inexpensive cloth-ing produced rapidly in response to trends', however, propelled by the rapid pace of today's fashion industry to introduce new styles ­ known as fast fashion ­ it's no wonder many clothes buyers find themselves with a `closet of regrets'. Hence, the need arises to talk about responsible fashion that not just highlights sustainability and comprehends nature through good disposal but at first, doesn't lead to exhausting nature. Trendy dresses for spring in colors you'd only wear once, impractical see-through cardigans that you'd wear only on a night out, and T-shirts embellished with slogans that hold no meaning, hence the focus should be mindful fashion, fashion is not just anything that attracts.The issue is not only reserved to online stores, who release thou-sands of new garments each week, unfortunately, the retail industry is rife with unethical fashion production and some of the biggest culprits might surprise you. Take a walk down your local high street and you'll see examples of fast fashion everywhere. However, there are also many who are keenly taking an interest in truly defining fashion taking a mindful approach around it. The fashion industry is finally beginning to embrace inclusivity and diversity. According to a study by the Indian Brand Equity Foundation, Indian apparel is expected to reach $135 billion by 2025 with online/D2C shop-ping accounting for 30 percent.
