Welcome to March, a high adrenaline month

for all of us at the IMAGES Group for obvious

reasons. As I write this, everyone at the offi ce

is busy in putting together a bigger and better

edition of the India Fashion Forum 2019 (IFF).

This issue will be a tribute to the upcoming

forum, complete with a curtain raiser to the

event.

In keeping with our fl agship event, we bring

you the third annual chapter of ‘Meet the

Masters’. Like in previous years, this edition

attempts to pick the minds of some of the

most prominent and visionary stalwarts

of the fashion industry. It is our fi rm belief

that CXOs of the fashion retail industry, as

the fountainheads of thought, are the ones

that will shape India’s fashion vision in the

coming years. And as the industry is poised

for quantum growth, it is absolutely critical to

hear them out.

The Indian fashion retail market is

progressing with giant strides, propelled by

increased penetration of organised retail,

which in-turn rides the rising disposable

incomes, changing demographics, increasing

brand consciousness and the e-commerce

boom. In this competitive, modern age,

retailers are required to have comprehensive

insights to keep pace with concurrent market

dynamics and address challenges and this

is where the invaluable insight of these retail

behemoths come handy. We hope that their

knowledge laden insights will encourage

and aid you to re-evaluate and reshape your

fashion retail aspirations and pave the next

way forward.

The June issue of Images Business of Fashion is led by a research on the Indian casualwear market, its size, growth, evolution and key trends and opportunities and growth over the years. The issue also talks to smart casual leaders like the Denmark-based clothing company–Bestseller, Raymond Apparel Ltd’s Parx, and French born fashion major Celio. It also features Tom Tailor’s online collaboration for India. The issue puts together our pick on of the most eye-catching ad campaign of the season—the smart one on a new look for every day of the week by Vero Moda. In the InFashion section of the magazine, Dan Cotton, EVP APAC, WGSN shares insights on the new trend watching feature WGSN IN Stock. This section also looks at how palazzo trousers are making a style statement, be it casual or Indian ethnic section among different age groups of women. We also take a look at some new launches, seminars and conferences that created a lot of buzz.
