IFF 2022: SHARP. PROGRESSIVE. ICONIC.

"A forced hiatus sometimes offers the downtime to reflect and re-energise. And that is what I feel about the 2022 edition of India Fashion Forum, India's only fashion-centric business intelligence event. Coming out of the many learnings and transformations of the past two years, we've all had to relearn the basics of what makes a fashion business relevant and timeless. It is my privilege to be chairing this powerful congregation of India's fashion and allied businesses, and I invite all with a stake in India's fashion evolution story to experience and benefit from this mega business event." -

Akhilesh Prasad, Chairman, India Fashion Forum 2022 and President & CEO, Fashion & Lifestyle Business, Reliance Retail

The 21st edition of India's largest fashion retail intelligence event, India Fashion Forum (IFF), is ready to set the stage on fire as it returns after a two-year hiatus induced by the COVID-19 pandemic. The mega congregation of leaders and brands from fashion, technology, retail support and retail real estate will be held from March 23-24, 2022, at The Leela Ambience Gurugram.

Themed 'Purpose, Innovation, Experience and Engagement, IFF 2022 reflects how and why fashion companies must aim to achieve excellence in these four prominent areas that can potentially deliver strong growth and profitability.
