Andrew Wyatt is the CEO and co-founder of Fashion operating system, CALA. Founded in 2016, CALA is the leading fashion supply chain platform that unifies the entire design process – from product ideation all the way through e-commerce enablement and order fulfilment – into a single digital platform. 

Recently, CALA announced the addition of AI to its platform, becoming one of the first companies to integrate the DALL·E API for a specific enterprise use case. Serving as a “smart sketchpad” this technology allows CALA users to generate new visual design ideas from natural text descriptions or uploaded reference images, a helpful tool for translating ideas into sketches, helping shatter a creative block, or simply adding another “collaborator” to design conversations.

Andrew explains how their AI tools work and how they can benefit everyone from inexperienced designers to seasoned creatives and large fashion enterprises, along with Andrew’s predictions for the future of fashion AI and production.
