STYLE IN ARCHITECTURE - FASHION HUB, NEW DELHI by FDPC:

INTRODUCTION:
The Advisory Committee of Fashion Design Promotion Council, the apex
government recognized body of fashion in India, met to unveil the much talked
about mega plan of creating a one of its kind Fashion Hub in Delhi. The Fashion
Hub is conceived as a dedicated area for marketing support to the Indian
fashion designers.
DDA has already demarcated a piece of land measuring 10 acres near IGNOU
campus in Maidan Garhi for allotment to Ministry of Textiles, Govt. of India for
proposed Fashion Hub. The scheme will take off in the current financial year
2009- 2010, the proposed Fashion Hub will be implemented under the
administrative control of the Ministry of Textile through Public Private
Partnership as proposed by the Planning Commission.

India is a country with a legendary clothing tradition, yet an emerging


fashion industry. Though a handful of designers existed prior to the 1980s, the
late 80s and the 1990s saw a spurt of growth. The following decades firmly
established fashion as an industry across India. The fashion hub, under the
administrative control of the Ministry of Textiles, will synthesize various
aspects of fashion into one central location. It will provide an interface by
creating a permanent marketplace for the fashion industry. While showcasing
India’s craftsmanship and design legacy, it shall also promote a contemporary
image of the nation.

entertainment, culture and leisure with a unique and powerful identity that

JUSTIFICATION:
India is increasingly a focal point for the fashion industry, reflecting a
rapidly growing middle class and an increasingly powerful manufacturing
sector. These forces, together with strong economic fundamentals and
growing tech savvy, make India too important for international brands to
ignore. Indeed, India’s ascent is one of ten trends the fashion industry should
watch in 2019, highlighted in our latest State of Fashion report, written in
partnership with the Business of Fashion (BoF).
Economic expansion is happening across Asia, but we expect that 2019 will be
the year when India takes center stage. The country is being propelled by
strong macroeconomic tailwinds, and its GDP is predicted to grow 8 percent a
year between 2018 and 2022 (exhibit).

“India started emerging as a major manufacturer of textiles till 2000’s and later
on took up the dual role of consumer and manufacturer. Therefore the
FASHION HUB will play a pivotal role in the years to come and also enhance the
current developments in the industry.”

CHALLENGE IN INDIA’S MARKETING PLATFORM:

As per statistics and overall view, International companies challenge is the low
quality of India’s infrastructure, which continues to lag behind that of many
other Asian countries. Nearly 40 percent of the Indian road network was
unpaved as of 2016. Poor infrastructure can make last-mile deliveries difficult.
In addition, retail stock is often below expectations.
Space has to be designed for people from lower to the higher end class people
and to make the people aware of the fashion and culture of India as well as
Eastern and Western culture and To provide India a space for Fashion business
and Marketing.
