Last Friday, Vogue Business and Google hosted their very first AI Luxury Summit. Among the amazing insights shared by the panelists and guests, one key fact truly stands out: digitally innovative brands are considered more iconic and interesting. This perspective is particularly relevant as innovation, image, and marketing are often siloed into different teams. However, from a customer’s standpoint, this separation is misguided. Innovation elevates brand perception, attracts a wider audience, and helps them better understand a brand's legacy and heritage. Many founders of luxury Maisons were themselves innovators, viewing their craft as a technological prowess (as highlighted in any documentary by Loic Prigent, or Cristóbal Balenciaga on Disney+). In essence, AI and digital innovation should be seen as another way to express elevated craft. There is beauty in these codes. Haute couture in tech. #AI #luxury #innovation #digital

AI Takes Center Stage at the Met Gala 👗 💃 Ever dreamed about attending the Met Gala? 🤔 Thanks to generative AI, you can now live the dream virtually. AI is transforming industries at a rapid pace, including the world’s most prestigious fashion event. The Met Gala, held every year on the first Monday in May, gathers celebrities in New York dressed according to the annual theme to raise money for the Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute. Every year, our social media feeds fill with celebrities in stunning, avant-garde outfits. Typically, when a celebrity is missing, it’s noticeable. However, this year, the Met Gala had full attendance, and even those not invited were able to participate virtually through AI. Ralph Lauren's words, "I don’t design clothes; I design dreams," rang especially true this year as AI helped attendees create their dream looks. The 2024 theme, "Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion," provided the perfect backdrop for AI innovation. AI-enabled stars like Katy Perry, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga, who were absent from the physical event, to participate virtually. Perry's AI-generated images were so realistic that her own mother thought she had attended. Met Gala 2024 highlighted the potential of AI in fashion, including AI-enhanced designs, personalized styling, and AI-driven accessories. Social media users played guessing games to determine which outfits were real and which were AI deepfakes. Unique ensembles like Camila Cabello's ice block purse and Lana Del Rey's shower-inspired veil sparked lively discussions online. This year also marked the debut of Sabyasachi as the first Indian designer at the Met Gala among the many other famous designers making a statement through their outfits. AI’s impact on audience engagement was evident, as virtual experiences allowed a broader audience to feel connected to the event. Brands like Nykaa are already utilizing AI to improve user experiences. As AI reshapes fashion at an unprecedented pace, the Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) drives people to engage with the latest trends and innovations on social media. In conclusion, AI’s integration into the Met Gala offered a glimpse into the future of fashion and events. As technology continues to evolve, we can expect even more groundbreaking advancements at future Met Galas, blurring the line between virtual and reality in the fashion world. #MetGala #GenAI #ArtificialIntelligence #GenerativeAI #KatyPerry #Rihanna #LadyGaga #LanaDelRey #CamilaCabello #Sabyasachi #Nykaa #RalphLauren #AI #Deepfake

🌎How a Viral AI Design Led to a Life-Changing Adidas Collaboration Earlier this year, Antonio, Fatima, and Enrique used AI to design a concept for an Adidas Mexican National Team jersey, blending artisan craftsmanship with modern design. The post went viral on LinkedIn, gaining over 1 million views, and within a day, Adidas reached out. Now, the collection is live, featuring hand-embroidered jerseys made by artisans from Puebla, each taking over 11 hours to craft. This collaboration isn’t just about the product — it’s helping over 3,000 artisans and their families, totaling more than 15,000 people, break the cycle of poverty. AI can be a powerful tool for good, supporting traditional crafts rather than replacing them. What’s your take on using tech to create opportunities like this? Let’s talk #AI #BigWin #TechNews

Should fashion brands focus on the genius of the "star designer"… or the power of collective creativity, human and AI? The role of the individual fashion designer is being redefined. Take Lulu Li’s collaboration with Moncler: she used AI to craft her stunning collection, yet it was the collaboration with Moncler’s team that brought the designs to life. This shows that AI isn’t here to replace creativity, but to expand it, allowing designers to focus on making key decisions and pushing innovation. At the same time, Bella Webb and Maliha Shoaib recently wrote about how fashion is moving away from the "star designer" system ⭐ —where one person shoulders all the creative pressure—towards building strong, collaborative teams. In a recent survey of 300 designers, 60% emphasized the need for more focus on team collaboration rather than individual stardom. Just as Li combined AI with human craftsmanship, the future of fashion lies in blending talents, not glorifying a single visionary 🫶 Leaders who embrace #AI and #collaboration are shaping fashion’s future by blending style and craft—human, machine, and everything in between. 🔗 Vogue Business links in the comments #AI #FashionTech #Innovation #Creativity #Collaboration #LuxuryFashion #FutureOfFashion #VogueBusiness
