Creativity and innovation, hand in hand, have long been the essential driving forces behind the world of fashion.

As early as the 18th century, an interesting connection emerged between textile weaving and early computing. French weaver Joseph Marie Jacquard's clever invention of a programmable loom using punch cards to guide patterns, was a significant leap. These cards effectively encoded intricate designs, laying the groundwork for an early form of programming. This momentous breakthrough set the stage for the development of computing machines, such as the early computers of IBM. It's no wonder, then, that the fashion industry is wholeheartedly embracing this technological revolution.
