INTRODUCTION
Through a visionary collaboration with InTech, The Style Pulse introduced Julia, an innovative AI avatar, at their debut showroom during SS25 Paris Fashion Week. Julia enhanced the showroom experience by seamlessly combining advanced technology with the elegance of fashion. Initially The Style Pulse was created as an internal data-sharing tool for Lambert+Associates, and it quickly evolved into a vital hub where creativity and commerce intersect. “The Style Pulse is more than a platform,” explain Anoosh Voltaire-Behi and Guillaume Giler. “It’s a bridge between technological innovation and the aesthetics of fashion.”

INTECH AND THE STYLE PULSE: FUSING TECHNOLOGY AND FASHION
The collaboration between InTech and The Style Pulse began with the goal of upgrading the platform’s capabilities. InTech’s technological expertise led to the development of Julia, an AI assistant designed to enhance the showroom experience. “We needed an AI that talks fashion but with a human touch,” says Kevin Thizy, AI & Blockchain expert at InTech. Julia’s core function is to assist buyers by providing relevant insights without overwhelming them with technicalities.

JULIA: AN AI BLENDING AESTHETICS AND FUNCTIONALITY
One of the standout achievements of this partnership was Julia’s design—an avatar embodying elegance and practicality. 3D expert Stéphane Barthélemy crafted Julia’s face, clothing, and animations, ensuring her physical presence was as captivating as her functionality. More than just a digital assistant, Julia acted as a strategic asset during the showroom event, offering trend analysis and tailored retailer recommendations in a welcoming, conversational tone. Visitors found the experience both enriching and immersive.

CHALLENGES AND INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS
Creating Julia wasn’t without its challenges. Early on, visitors needed guidance to engage with her effectively. InTech addressed this by implementing conversational suggestions and guided interactions. “The goal wasn’t to impose Julia but to integrate her subtly, enriching the experience without disrupting it,” says The Style Pulse team. By adapting Julia’s responses in real time using data from The Style Pulse, the collaboration ensured a personalized and engaging experience for every visitor.

LOOKING AHEAD: A FUTURE SHAPED BY TECHNOLOGY
The success of Julia marks just the beginning of The Style Pulse’s technological ambitions. Upcoming projects include increased personalization of brand recommendations, interactive 3D modeling of products, and real-time trend analysis. “We see Julia as a tool for cementing The Style Pulse’s position as a leader in fashion-tech innovation,” notes the team. Plans to host AI-focused events aim to unite industry players and push the boundaries of what’s possible in fashion.

The partnership between The Style Pulse and InTech exemplifies the synergy of two seemingly opposing worlds—technology and fashion. Together, they’ve created an immersive, forward-thinking shopping experience. With Julia, The Style Pulse has transformed from a B2B platform into a pioneer at the intersection of humanity and innovation, setting a bold vision for the future of fashion.
