Tune into this 8th episode of a 10-part series, "Designer's Digest” with Akanksha Sethi. This series is in partnership with @godrejdesignlab. Designer's Digest series is about Design as a profession, its daily grind, the secrets to climbing the design career ladder, and what edge we'll need to thrive in the captivating design world. Starting with a few numbers collected from SIAM, (Society of Indian Automobile Manufactures) and the Federation of Automobile Dealers Associations (FADA) Over 4.4 million vehicles were produced in India in 2022-23. We've around 10 Big players in the Automobile industry, Maruti Suzuki, Hyundai Motor India, Mahindra & Mahindra, Tata Motors, Honda Cars India, Toyota Kirloskar Motor, Renault India, MG Motor India, Hero MotoCorp, Bajaj Auto. India ranks as the fourth-largest passenger vehicle market worldwide. 1.2% of cars sold in India were EVs. However, as per ETAuto, EV sales are rapidly growing, with a 230% increase. The Indian government aims to achieve 30% EV penetration by 2030 through various initiatives and policies. To discuss all this and Automobile Design as a career in India... Akanksha Sethi joins us. Akanksha has been a Colors, Materials, and Finish Design, Group lead at Maruti Suzuki for the past 13 years. She did her Bachelor of Design from the National Institute of Fashion Technology. Before joining Maruti Suzuki, she had worked at Amrapali Jewels and Titian Industries.   Questions Who is an automobile designer? What are the sub-disciplines within it? You deal with Colors, Material, and Finish. Tell us more about it. What do you do when it deals with CMF? How does one grow in a career in automobile design? Can you describe the career ladder for automobile designers in India? What are the typical milestones, changes of responsibilities, and challenges at each stage? What is the difference when they say, “Manufactured in India” versus “Assembled in India”? How and where do designers from India fit in this setup? What goes when collaboration happens - Suzuki + Maruti or Hero and Honda? What are some of the most iconic or impactful car colors or materials and finishes you've been part of in your career? What makes them special? What defines the success of a good color for a car? How do we define a good, reliable, and safe material? What are checks and tests done to test materials? How have the skills required for automobile design changed after liberalization (1990)? Or maybe when Maruti 800 came on the market in 1983? What new skills are becoming increasingly important, especially in the context of electric vehicles and sustainable technologies when we talk about CMF? What are the major trends and challenges that are shaping and will shape the industry in the coming decades when it comes to CMF? In this 10-part series, I have 4 woman designers and you are one of them. As per the D'Source repository, only 2 women designers out of 19 Automotive designers in India. Can you talk a little bit about gender diversity within the automobile design industry? What unique challenges have you faced being a Women Designer in the Automobile / Man's world? What advice would you like to give young designers entering the Automobile Design world?   Reference reading https://www.dsource.in/resource/history-automotive-design-india/top-automotive-designers-india/akanksha-sethi https://www.dsource.in/resource/history-automotive-design-india/automotive-design-schools-india https://www.dsource.in/resource/history-automotive-design-india/important-automobile-models/cars-designs https://www.dsource.in/sites/default/files/resource/history-automobile-design-india/downloads/file/history_automobile_design_india.pdf https://www.linkedin.com/in/akanksha-sethi-a7549723/?originalSubdomain=in https://www.siam.in/about-us.aspx?mpgid=1&pgidtrail=2 https://www.fada.in/

Technology and tradition combine for Hangzhou's opening extravaganzaAspectacle to savor, and more than just a visual feast, a stunning opening ceremony laden with Hangzhou characteristics wowed the world on Saturday, as President Xi Jinping declared the 19th Asian Games open.With the city's profound history, culture and its modern image presented in an eye-catching and high-tech fashion, the opening show at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Stadium helped to express the host's warm hospitality and its wish to unite the world through sports.Following an opening performance depicting the autumn equinox, one of China's 24 solar terms that celebrates the harvest season, over 50,000 spectators burst into cheers as Xi announced the opening of the Hangzhou Games, making the Zhejiang provincial capital the third Chinese city to host the continental sporting gala, following Beijing in 1990 and Guangzhou in 2010.With the giant floor screen lighting the way, the athletes' parade proceeded to the melody of Our Asia, played to the pounding beat of drums built in the shape of osmanthus, the city flower of Hangzhou, fervently extending the city's invitation to Asia's best.During the parade, images of iconic scenic spots at Hangzhou's famous West Lake were projected onto the oval-shaped floor screen, with the scent of osmanthus sprayed out across the stadium, allowing marching athletes and spectators to enjoy the city's picturesque scenery in an immersive way.Wang Hao, president of the 19th Asian Games Hangzhou Organizing Committee, said Hangzhou is honored to play host to such a grand event, where friendship and mutual respect are strengthened."In this season of harvest, we give our best wishes to all the athletes and hope that they will compete with passion, challenge personal limits, strive for excellence and realize their dreams," said Wang, also governor of Zhejiang province."We hope that all participants will engage in closer communication, appreciate the culture of one another, build stronger friendships and find happiness during the Games."Raja Randhir Singh, the acting president of the Olympic Council of Asia, showed appreciation for the Chinese host's meticulous organization in his speech."You have done a fantastic job in preparing for the Asian Games. The one-year postponement due to the pandemic was unprecedented in OCA history, but your diligence and determination will bear fruit over the next 16 days and you will be rewarded with the most magnificent and successful Asian Games ever," said Singh."The OCA salutes you! Xie Xie. Thank you."Supported by new technologies, the Hangzhou ceremony boasted many historic firsts and highlighted the sustainable and digitally enhanced future of such gala events, according to the creative team.For the first time in China, organizers switched from a traditional fireworks show to a virtual display, projected onto a giant curtain screen the size of nine IMAX screens.An artistic performance, themed as "Tide Surging in Asia", captured the crowd's imagination with breathtaking projections depicting Hangzhou's past and present, with glasses-free 3D animations accompanying traditional dance performances.The design of the costumes worn by the performers was inspired by the region's rich history and timeless grace, dating back to the Song Dynasty (960-1279), with Hangzhou's ancient arts of music, poetry and calligraphy vividly reflected in the texture and style of the dresses designed by Chu Yan, a professor at Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology.For the finale, hundreds of millions of virtual sparks, each representing a participant of the online torch relay, formed the shape of a human torchbearer, who ran into the stadium to light the main cauldron together with the physical relay's final bearer — Zhejiang native and Olympic champion swimmer, Wang Shun.To adhere to the principle of delivering the greenest possible Games, zero-emission methanol was used to fuel all of the torches and the main cauldron.Extravaganza英/ɪk,strævə'gænzə/美/ɪk,strævə'gænzə/n.盛大表演Calligraphy英/kə'lɪgrəfɪ/美/kə'lɪgrəfɪ/n.书法

Salima and Rita lived their teenage years during the early 2000s and they reminisce on the fashion trends, the types of phones and computers they had, the music they listened to and many other hilarious memories. 

Buying clothes has never been easier. 80 billion items are manufactured every year. Millions of tonnes of clothes end up in landfills—it's one of the fastest-growing categories of waste in the world.  E-commerce and fast fashion have made our desires to own clothes for different occasions easier. But what's the problem? Fast fashion allows consumers to buy more. But they are wearing these garments less often and disposing of at an unprecedented rate. The rise of fast fashion has had devastating consequences.  In this episode, our reporter Sneha Richhariya tries to understand the magnanimity of the problem. The episode features conversations with Atin Biswas, Programme Director at Centre For Science and Environment, Apla Shrivastava, Associate Professor at National Institute of Fashion Technology, Mumbai, Monika Gera, Founder, One For Blue and Pooravi Chabbra, an instagram influencerSee sunoindia.in/privacy-policy for privacy information.

SummaryAn interesting problem that many creative teams don't think of as a problem is the static nature of the photograph. By their very nature, photographs are snapshots in time and making changes to that snapshot historically has been inconceivable, impossible. Our guest in this episode is Robert Alhborg, former fashion photographer turned co-founder and chief Product Officer of Looklet, a fashion tech company that challenges the idea that fashion imagery is static by nature, and is working to unlock a new world of capabilities and synergies between creative production and e-commerce teams.Key TakeawaysLooklet was founded 10 years, a fashion tech company that has deconstructed the process of fashion photography for big retailers and brands.Customers can shoot models and garments separately, even in different parts of the world, and compile those elements into an image that is hard to distinguish from a traditional photo shoot.These images become dynamic. You can take an image you love and replace the apparel within the image.Roberts background is as a fashion photographer, his experience taught him that scaling fashion photography is very difficult.With Looklet, you can maintain a smaller, faster studio and still produce high quality on figure photography.In this deconstructed style of photography, you can change out articles that maybe are out of stock or no longer for sale, and not have to reshoot because of these reasons.The main thing for Looklet clients is being able to try new things. A/B testing imagery, Personalization, Regionalization, etc.Looklet also enables broader options for talent. You no longer have to book the same models everytime you shoot, you can perhaps afford to book a celebrity model and then use those assets for a long time, changing looks as you need them.One of the challenges are e-commerce websites that are to rigid to allow for regionalization or personalization.There is a big opportunity for a forward thinking creative team to use a platform to its fullest capability.Looklet creates a new layer of cross functionality between studio/creative teams and ecomm/web teams.Looklets biggest challenge in the near future is balancing their own road map with features that clients want, and finding the right clients to take personalization to the next level. Discount CodeReminder to use code ECCP to get your first month of PhotoRoom Pro for free!

Sewn products manufacturers box themselves into thinking they are "pants manufacturers," or "dress manufacturers," or "shirt manufacturers." The reality is that most products require similar processes, people, and equipment to manufacture.Clothing businesses in Canada must be versatile manufacturers, due to the relatively small population size spread across a large geographical area. This requires innovative process engineering to adapt the same people and machinery to whatever the next order requires. There is no room to waste time, talent, or material.In this episode, Ram Sareen shares how to make changes to your apparel production processes that will produce measurable and visible results:✓ ZERO buffers✓ ZERO pre-inspection of fabric,✓ ZERO fabric relaxation✓ ZERO ticketingTukatalks is the show where fashion industry experts share what NOT to do.NOTE:This episode of Tukatalks discusses how the use of technology eliminates processes in apparel manufacturing.

Her fascination materialised at the National Institute of Fashion Technology in Delhi where she studied the influence of ancient Indian art on culture, textiles, apparel, and fashion. Inspired, she created a line of clothing based on the 2,500-year-old folk art of Madhubani paintings, known for big, bold, beautiful eyes. She fell in love immediately. The key is to start at the source: female folk artists living in remote Indian villages who create authentic artwork. Stunning, vibrant, mesmerising – the world needed to see these masterpieces. Naytra Couture transfers exclusive paintings onto 100% pure silk by using the most environmentally friendly techniques possible. Her tunics are handcrafted, each a one-of-a-kind wearable piece of art that is a truly unique fashion statement.

Demand manufacturing doesn't have to mean "made-to-order," or "small batch." Rather, keeping inventory digital until a customer order comes through actually allows fashion businesses to offer MORE options (colors, sizes, etc.) for their products, without maintaining physical inventory.Ram Sareen explains how attention to fit inspired the concept of demand manufacturing in the apparel industry back in 2012.EPISODE LINKS:Ram Sareen's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tukatech/Ram Sareen's Twitter: https://twitter.com/RamKSareen1CONNECT:- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TUKATALKS- Twitter: https://twitter.com/tukatalks- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/372...- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tukatalks/- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tukatalks/#fashionpodcast #fashiontechnology #whatNOTtodo

For many fashion businesses, MRP simply means calculating approximately how much fabric is required, adding a margin on top of that, then booking the fabric order. Marker making is seen as a parallel, but separate process, and little thought is given to the handling of the fabric in the cutting room.Instead, apparel companies should have a dedicated person whose sole responsibility is managing materials from planning to cutting. With proper implementation, your Materials Manager could save your business 5% or more in fabric utilization.Tukatalks is the show where fashion industry experts share what NOT to do.EPISODE LINKS:Ram Sareen's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tukatech/Ram Sareen's Twitter: https://twitter.com/RamKSareen1CONNECT:- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TUKATALKS- Twitter: https://twitter.com/tukatalks- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/372...- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tukatalks/- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tukatalks/#fashionpodcast #fashiontechnology #whatNOTtodo
