There are three major factors driving the rising demand for digital fashion professionals. Virtual runways are quickly becoming the norm, and demand for digital wardrobes and avatars is skyrocketing. Further, avatar personalization is increasingly popular, influencers are leaving their mark on the metaverse, and sustainability issues are rising to the forefront, all pushing the market to grow. Technology is exacerbating all of these trends. Examples such as 3D garment design tools, virtual try-on integration, AI-powered fit recommendations, and NFT fashion drops are at the forefront.
The digital fashion professional market is not without its challenges. A software and hardware skills gap across state DOTs and local agencies is stalling innovation. Further, issues such as intellectual property protection, the absence of standardization across platforms and technologies, and high costs of creating complex digital garments are further barriers to adoption. Whatever missteps the market takes on this ‘beta’, overcoming these challenges will be key to the growth and maturation of the market going forward.
