💡"Is Fashion Moving Back to Physical Samples?" This is the topic i'll tacke during the upcoming PI Apparel Europe Conference. 🤔This question has sparked lively debates in the fashion industry. 🎤I'm thrilled to announce that I' am among the featured speakers and I will have a pleasure to discuss why fashion companies are reverting to physical samples and how we can realign with Digital Product Creation (DPC) implementation strategies. 📊I've noticed a crucial gap in how fashion companies approach DPC. Often, there's a lack of comprehensive change management and a missing bottom-up approach. Additionally, many solutions look impressive but fail to address the real challenges our industry faces. 🚀So, how can we implement technology in a way that not only resonates with our employees but also delivers tangible financial value? 💬Join me as I explore these issues and share insights on integrating technology meaningfully into our workflows. I look forward to sharing my thoughts and hope to see you there for an engaging discussion! 📍 Where: Lake Maggiore, Italy 📅 When: 12th March 2024, 3:15 PM ❓What are your thoughts on the shift back to physical samples in fashion? ❓How do you think technology can be implemented effectively in our industry? 🏷️ #DigitalFashion #PIApparel2024 #InnovationInFashion #TechInFashion #FashionFuture Looking forward to seeing you at Lake Maggiore! 🌊🇮🇹

This will definitely be a thought provoking session. Being a PLM expert, I see value in 3D being a crucial tool in reducing samples for decisions making on line profiling and basic assortment planning. However, when a design is challenging to produce or new to a specific factory, then physical sampling will always be required to ensure the design can be produced in bulk.
