So it’s no wonder that in the past few years, the women’s apparel market has seen many changes and safe to say that disruption is on its way!


Massive Growth & Transformation On Its Way


According to projections, women’s apparel market in India is all set to reach nearly 39 billion USD by 2025 which is a mega jump from what it was in 2015. And ethnic wear has the largest market value in this sector.


Several reasons contribute to this trend. For one, there is a huge rise in the number of Indian working women stepping out of their homes to pursue a career and the number is expected to increase in the next decade. According to a survey, festivals and special occasions were the primary reasons for the popularity of ethnic wear purchases among Indians.
