Book excerpt: The Indian intimate wear market has been growing rapidly in the last few years. By 2025, the market is estimated to reach around $13 billion. The June 2018 edition of Fibre2Fashion discusses this category at length with perspectives from players from across the value chain through a series of interviews. Not to be missed is an analysis on the big deal—Walmart acquiring 77 per cent of Flipkart. Three promising startups are discussed in the first European Textile Startup Summit, besides all regular features. Fibre2Fashion magazine—the print venture of Fibre2Fashion.com since 2011—is circulated among a carefully-chosen target audience globally, and reaches the desks of top management and decision-makers in the textiles, apparel and fashion industry. As one of India's leading industry magazines for the entire textile value chain, Fibre2Fashion Magazine takes the reader beyond the mundane headlines, and analyses issues in-depth.
