INNOVATION INBUILT

At Vardhman, we blend market insights with creativity & innovation to deliver customer delight. Our in-house design team ensures that our seasonal collections are fresh and innovative in approach and at the same time grounded in market wisdom.

THE DESIGN PROCESS

The design process begins with analysis of future trends to generate ideas. In-depth research of factors like the prevalent culture, the geographical location, economic, political and social latitudes, aspirations, iconography and new celebrities on the scene, helps interpret and predict emerging consumers' tastes and preferences.

Today, approximately 30% of the total new products we manufacture annually, are our own creations.

Market surveys and feedback from the buyers and customers, coupled with our customer history serve as a strong input. Visits to the various textile fairs around the globe give us an insight into the upcoming fashion trends, thereby keeping us at par with the global scenario. We also draw inspiration from forecasts by agencies like WGSN, fashion shows and trend magazines. Post all the research, we frame our material direction, colour, mood and look boards for the particular season.

Our institutionalised design process results in the creation of nearly 1,000 different designs annually. Based on these designs, we develop 8,000 distinctive colourways.

NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

At Vardhman, we believe that design excellence must stand the test of on-ground feasibility. Only then, will it transform a potential idea into a profitable product. Meticulous research precedes each New Product Development at Vardhman. We follow a six-step process to develop new products. Every step ensures that consumer aspirations as well as the technical viability are thought through.
