Your Studio, Automated: AI Agents for Designers
Your Studio, Automated: AI Agents for Designers, How Fashion Leaders Are Using AI in Their Workflows
AI in fashion is often framed in extremes, either as a revolutionary force or a threat to creativity. This panel shifts the conversation toward reality: how AI is being used today to enhance creative output, streamline workflows, and build smarter, more effective marketing strategies.
Through firsthand insights and practical examples, panelists will explore where AI meaningfully accelerates processes, where human creativity remains essential, and how to identify the right tools to support individual workflows and business goals. The discussion aims to give attendees a transparent and actionable perspective on AI, not as a replacement for creative leadership, but as a powerful extension of it.
In partnership with 99 Yards, a fashion ecosystem platform connecting brands, creatives, agencies, and production services to streamline collaboration and modernize how fashion is built and executed through technology and AI-powered workflows.
Featuring Alise Trautmane-Uzuner, founder of DOORS NYC, Sai Kong, founder of Forma, and Clare Tattersall, founder of Digital Fashion Week.
