Outer looks are being modified and there is hardly difference between male and female.The merging of fashion and image creates the look. But consumers are now expecting nothing less than luxury when they even seek ordinary. High street retail has risen to the challenge as consumers opt for cheap and cheerful goods. Hence, popularity of low cost retail clothes is rising.The Chinese market is huge and the Chinese luxury market is still way behind the level the western world enjoys and is a market still to be captured. However, sociological differences and attitudes between regions means that manufactures will need to tailor their goods accordingly.In this paper, I have summarized the details available to make people aware about opportunity and scope in fashion technology.
