Inclusive Fashion|Assuring Consumer Coverage

Vision

“We see a world where all women, regardless of shape and size, can find clothes that look good on their bodies where-ever they shop.”

Problem & Opportunity

We know that 30% of apparel isn’t sold and goes into landfills. Using Savitude’s unique Image Recognition technology, we analyzed the runway collections from around the world and determined there are insufficient design options for about half of women’s body shapes and the design options for other body shapes are over-represented by 30%. Solving the oversimplification of body shape in apparel design creates a $100B market opportunity that we’ve termed the “INCLUSIVITY GAP”.
Savitude’s easy to use interface allows merchandisers or designers to analyze and edit collections to satisfy all body shapes in their Brands target market.

Value proposition

Savitude enables brands to expand consumer coverage using inclusive fashion technology. Our impact on Brands is that they will serve more consumers, increasing the market size at higher margins and gather data to improve distribution. More over, Savitude enables them to be a leader in inclusivity.

Business model

B2B SaaS with annual contracts for enterprise customers. We have a freemium model available for independent designers’ trial and conversion.

Go-to-market plan

Savitude is creating a new category and is focusing on content marketing. Membership on influential activities (IEEE 3D Fit and BP committees).

Strategic sponsorships with Institutions: 1 Strategic publications with analysts (Coresight Research); 2 The LEAD 4 Women in Retail Leadership; 5 Shoptalk.

Primary market research; Speaking engagements; Publications; Social Media as an education tool.

Savitude will first focus on luxury fashion. Then we will work with technology partners to reach the rest of fashion as they are already selling to these companies. As this strategy takes hold, Savitude will expand to consumer driven design and beyond.

Savitude is watching the emergence of NFTs in fashion closely. We have a very strong play there with our existing technology.
