Managingfashionproductsischallenging,notonlyforcreativesandstylists,but also for supply-chain managers. More and more, customers demand broad product varieties and innovative products, and the competition in the fashion industry is ever more centered on the ability to react in a timely manner to changes in the customers’ desires. Therefore, fashion companies have to balance the need to reduce lead times of collections, minimize stocks and obsolescence risks, acquire informationfrombigdatacomingfromdigitalandsocialmediachannels,guarantee a high level of quality, and get the customer involved in the processes of product development. Starting from a multidisciplinary approach, the IT4Fashion confer- ence aims to collect and present new or improved supply-chain business models and technologies applied to the fashion industry, to share knowledge among practitioners and researchers, and, in summary, to increase knowledge in the areas ofProductLifecycleManagement(PLM)andSupplyChainManagement(SCM)in the industry. The 7th edition, organized in 2017, was carried out over 3 full days—with plenary and parallel sessions. The first 2 days were dedicated to experts’ keynotes and industrial case studies carried out by fashion companies and worldwide ven- dors.

During that day, researchers, practitioners, and students discussed the main challenges of IT solutions applied to the fashion industry.
