AI Fashion Generator
Client:
Pendulum is a fashion trend analysis and forecasting platform designed to help fashion companies to make informed product decisions and uses big data to capture the real time dynamic between supply and demand. They use the insights to guide businesses to improve sell through rate, reduce inventory waste, and cut the manual research time by 90%.
My Role:
I helped guide the problems statement generating during the Project Kick off Meeting, and I helped facilitate user interviews.
We were a remote team that worked remotely for the entire project.
Team:
Tyler, and Olga,
They currently have three features accessed through a dashboard:
Trend discover/Market Overview
Demand sensing
Collection
They hope to launch two new features in the future:
Find similar product
Fashion design using Generative AI
Problem Statement Development
We did a Project Kick off meeting with the client and helped them define the problem statement and what feature they wanted us to focus on.
To come to the problem statement we used the (BLANK) method to devise the statement. We used this method because it helped the client come to a single user focus and single feature to focus on, and for time purposes allow us to have something to work with right away.
Users & Audience
The primary user was a Fashion Merchandiser the very close secondary user was the owner of the business. These were our user focus because fashion merchandisers are often the ones looking at the trends, deciding what products to bring into the stores, and deciding on what in store product should look like.
In a smaller business setting, sometimes the Fashion Merchandiser is also the owner of the business in which the user wears many hats.
Since the AI Generator is a newer idea in the market, a constraint I think we had was a lack of standardization, research, and examples of how a companies would provide an Generative AI Design tool for their clients and how user would implement it in their workflows.
Our client wanted to expand to a broader market of fashion companies and help them better predict fashion trends. And based on that create a fashion generator to help designers create more efficiently.
(Add problem statement in here and that an AI Fashion Generator was what was to be created)
