buying those things that really matters. There’s a wide shift in fashion trends

Fashion Shows
The fashion show formats have existed from around 70 years. Some fashion
weeks in Paris and Milan have cancelled or postponed while London is going
online, and some brands have removed themselves from the fashion calendar
altogether this year. There are raising question whether this would be the end
of fashion week, or whether the travel-ban and Social Distancing measures will
stop the fashion designers from showcasing their collections. In India, the
fashion is festive/wedding/travel oriented rather than other countries where
fashion is very seasonal oriented.

The Bright Side
The situation seems to be different for Sports-Wear brands as people try
to stay comfortable and active at home. That means brands like Nike and lululemon
are expected to perform well as people stuck at home choose a casual or
exercise-ready clothes over an office attire.

business 12 times, making them to roll out the world’s first platform that

Homely Wardrobe Freedom
Crisis apart, the pandemic has freed people from formal dress codes,
corporate suites and congregational wardrobes. We can now wear what we
comfortable in and continue to work remotely. The work-from-home system has
become the new normal of our daily life, and people are readily adaptive to it.
With this scheme in full effect, the fashion Industry is diversifying its
operations as per the need of the trends. People working from home are
experimenting with different wears and styles on Instagram, using ethnical

Future and Adaptability
Just as working Jure in World War II made functional skirts and trousers
acceptable for women, experts believe the virus may alter the 21st
Century of its dress codes for good. Women should re-incarnate their sewing
skills to produce the clothing that will last for some period rather than the
ones for the weekend outfit.
The unexpected crisis has actually promoted the hidden desire of public
to feel more comfortable and sport casual wears. Now that people needing less
priority of clothes at home, experts hope the virus will lead us to re-think on
cheap, mass-produced fashion. Speaking of sustainability, the Covid-19 is
totally re-designing the Fashion Industry.
