The Indian clothing market is expected
to be worth $53.7 billion in 2020, making it the sixth largest globally,
according to the fourth annual state of fashion report by The Business of

India, which has attracted global
brands like Zara, H&M and Marks & Spencer lately, saw the entry of
Japanese retailer Uniqlo. Recently, the government relaxed local sourcing norms
in single-brand retail, providing further impetus to the industry.
The
industry has also evolved quickly in past years, by transforming traditional
clothing to modern design that represent a fusion of ethnic wear with western
wear to associate with young population. Further, drivers such as economic
growth, ease of payment, and other seamless experience have led to significant
growth in the women’s ethnic wear market.

age group represents one of the biggest consumer group of textiles and apparel
and is expected to drive the spending over the next five years.
