Offset Fashion Technology Roadmap
Sustainable, circular & ethical fashion company
Offset Fashion is a sustainable, circular and ethical fashion company start-up who are aspiring to discourage the throw away culture of fast fashion, used primarily by women to buy and sell recycled clothes in order to contribute to a circular economy.
Currently, people send their clothes by post to Jennifer who labels each item and adds it to the website for purchase and sale. Each of the items of clothing needs to be manually measured and photographed in order to be catalogued on the Offset Fashion website.
But this is a laborious process and Offset Fashion need to explore a more seamless way to manage clothing for sale through the website.
Technology roadmap development
Offset Fashion approached Walton Institute to provide a technical roadmap that shall explore the applications and solutions which provide non-contact measurement of clothing in real-time to match the size of clothing to clients.
