Key Insights and Trends From Retail Fashion at CIFF
Discovering 1200+ Brands at CIFF 25: Key Insights on Fashion and Retail Trends from the show floor: many brands and retailers still manually input data or rely on basic descriptions provided with their Shopify setup.
This is where our custom AI models excel. Retailers send their product images via API or other methods, and our AI models analyze, tag, and categorize each item, sending this information back to retailers to enhance their product descriptions (in multiple languages!), boosting on-site filtering and search, as well as SEO/GEO to attract new traffic.

Sales are up in fashion retail, but apparel returns are up too
A sharp increase in returns management spending in 2024 means apparel returns are cutting more deeply into overall per-sale revenue. Current solutions aren’t solving the returns problem, and in fact, may be increasing the consumer behavior of bracketing. The biggest gap in solving the returns problem, is addressing the mismatch between a garment’s cut and fit, and the shopper’s body structure.
Understanding Bracketing in Apparel Retail: The Impact of Consumer Confidence
Bracketing occurs when shoppers order multiple sizes of the same garment, with the intention of returning the sizes that do not fit. Sizing inconsistencies leave shoppers feeling like bracketing is their only choice. This creates both a logistical headache for retailers and contributes to increasing garment waste in the fashion industry.
Why cut and fit matter
Understanding the cut and fit of clothing is essential for every shopper, especially in today’s diverse online apparel retail landscape. With varying body shapes and sizes, finding the right fit can be a challenge, leading to cart abandonment and increased returns. Discover how the right garment attributes can accentuate your shopper’s best features and boost shopper confidence. Learn about the difference between cut and fit, and how innovative solutions like Catecut’s AI-powered styling solution can help your customers navigate making the best wardrobe choices effortlessly.
