AI empowerment: subverting the infinite possibilities of the future of the textile industry!

In recent years, the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has had a profound impact on all walks of life, including the textile and clothing manufacturing industry. With the continuous advancement of science and technology, the recovery of consumption and the continued efforts of measures to stabilize growth have led to a significant increase in passenger flow in the textile and clothing industry. In addition, with the acceleration of AI applications, the textile and clothing industry can use AI to participate in the design and marketing links, and the implementation difficulty is relatively low. Therefore, it can reduce costs and increase efficiency for the textile and clothing industry, which is beneficial to the profit improvement of the textile and clothing industry.

Then let's take a good look at "the impact of artificial intelligence on the textile and clothing manufacturing industry, and look forward to its future prospects".

Review of Internet + Textiles and Clothing

Reviewing the history of Internet + Textiles and Clothing, from the rise of O2O in early 2014, during which it experienced cross-border e-commerce, e-commerce agency operation, and new retail, it lasted for a long time, received high attention, and had a profound impact on the development of the industry. The proportion of online business revenue of most companies in the industry continued to increase, and the proportion of online and offline same models continued to increase, which led to a continuous increase in gross profit margins. Online drives offline operating efficiency to continue to improve. Considering that AI + Textiles and Clothing will also bring profound changes to the industry, involving both upstream production and manufacturing and downstream design and retail, it is optimistic that AI + Textiles and Clothing will become one of the main investment lines in the industry in the long term.

It is understood that the development of AI technology is expected to improve the efficiency of textile and clothing design, production and manufacturing, quality control, logistics, sales and other links. According to Research and Market forecasts, the scale of the AI ​​fashion industry is expected to reach US$1.26 billion in 2024, and the CAGR from 2019 to 2024 can reach 40.76%.

AI + Textiles and Clothing, Wide Application Space

AI empowers the textile and clothing industry, and it should be said that the prospects are still relatively imaginative.

On the one hand, AI is expected to empower the field of textile and clothing production and manufacturing. The "14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of the Textile Industry" points out that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, it is necessary to continue to promote the deep integration of new-generation information technology and the textile industry, and implement key projects of intelligent manufacturing in the textile industry based on the digitalization of textile equipment and information interconnection. Leading enterprises are also actively promoting digital and intelligent transformation, and the prototype of smart factories has begun to emerge. The factory intelligence of textile weaving enterprises is mainly reflected in the five levels of infrastructure layer, intelligent equipment layer, intelligent production line layer, intelligent workshop layer and factory management layer. In recent years, the automation, intelligence and digitalization trends of manufacturing enterprises have continued to accelerate. Some leading enterprises in the textile and clothing industry have actively carried out the layout of smart factories from the process of each link of the supply chain.

On the other hand, AI is expected to empower the field of textile and clothing design and retail. Domestic consumers are increasingly showing personalized and diversified consumer demands. Clothing and home textile companies are increasingly concerned about how to design products that better meet consumer needs, how to develop online and offline channels, and how to improve the quality and sales of marketing. Using AI technology, companies can generate more popular designs, reduce marketing costs, improve marketing quality, and help the company's online platform and offline store operations.

In addition to the drive of AI+, there is also an expectation of a 618 e-commerce promotion. Judging from the situation in the past three years, the textile and apparel sector index will more or less have a wave of market before 618 or Double 11.

AI+ clothing design, reducing costs and increasing efficiency to create a hit!

Everything can be AI. The clothing and home textile sector has had AI empowerment scenarios for a long time, that is, AI+ clothing design, and textiles and clothing have also caught up with the big wave of AI. Now the biggest logic of AI application hype is cost reduction and efficiency improvement, and AI+ clothing design is also the logic of cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

In the entire clothing industry, the high value of the market is recognized, but there is another high value in the design link. In terms of profit ratio, the distribution ratio of market, design and production is about 5:4:1, and the market is not even significantly higher than design. In such a very high-value link, the cost reduction and efficiency improvement brought by AI empowerment are huge.

AI empowers clothing design. On the one hand, it reduces costs and increases efficiency in the design process. AI paintings are becoming more and more refined. In the future, combined with virtual fitting rooms, the entire clothing design industry will bring about a huge qualitative change. On the other hand, AI design is combined with big data. Based on big data analysis from major e-commerce platforms, social media, fashion majors, etc., it can design clothing that is more popular with consumers and more likely to produce big hits, thus bringing new growth in clothing and home textiles.
