Here are some examples of ways AI can help your apparel business:

2. Personalized Recommendations

AI-powered recommendation systems can dig deep into customer preferences, purchase history, and browsing behavior. With all that info, the technology can provide personalized product recommendations to your customers. This will enhance customer engagement and boost your sales conversion rates.

3. Customer Sentiment Analysis
