How to use ChatGPT to create *human sounding* content for your fashion business 

If you’re a small fashion brand owner or fashion marketing professional juggling 13847 tasks at once – writing ALL your marketing copy on a tiny budget can feel like you’ve been hired to style an entire editorial shoot with just three pieces. Impossible! 

If you’re stuck in the middle of pumping out product descriptions, social media posts, ads, emails, and new weekly blog posts… AND you don’t have a fashion copywriter on call 24/7, then you need to read this. 

Here is everything you need to know about making ChatGPT your new copywriting and marketing assistant. If you learn to use AI in your fashion marketing workflow the RIGHT way – you’ll see that it’s 100x MORE reliable than the *assistant* Miranda Priestly always dreamt of.

This isn’t about replacing human creativity; AI hasn’t mastered the art of a perfectly timed fashion reference yet. It’s about using fashion tech to streamline, scale, and speed up your content creation process, giving you MORE time to focus on what you do best… creating amazing fashion experiences for your customers.

Even McKinsey published a report titled Generative AI: Unlocking the future of fashion – confirming what marketers have been saying that AI is NOT going anywhere.

Why ChatGPT is perfect for fashion marketing

Small fashion businesses are turning to AI tools faster than shoppers rush to a sample sale, and here’s why. When you’re bootstrapping a brand, every dollar counts. Traditional copywriting services can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars monthly (and as a fashion copywriter, I can guarantee you they are 100% worth it, BUT they are not worth going into debt for). ChatGPT costs less than a cup of coffee a day and can still create content that grows your marketing and saves you time.

ChatGPT is SO good at doing the 80% of grunt work that in a fashion agency setting, a more junior marketer or copywriter would do. Think of it as a marketing assistant that brings your vision and strategy to life. 

Need social media captions that capture the vibe of your latest collection? Done. 

Want to draft email campaigns for your seasonal sale? Consider it handled. 

Looking for product descriptions that actually sell? ChatGPT can generate these fast.

The best AI for copywriting shines when you’re dealing with high-volume content needs. Instead of staring at a blank page, wondering how to describe your fifteenth pair of earrings this week, you can generate multiple variations and choose the one that resonates most with your brand aesthetic and voice.

The benefits (good) and limitations (bad) of ChatGPT

Benefits of using ChatGPT in fashion marketing:

Speed is ChatGPT’s superpower. What might take you an hour to write can be drafted in minutes, leaving you more time for strategic planning or creative development. Cost-wise, it’s great for small business content marketing. You’re looking at a monthly subscription that costs less than a single freelance blog post.

The versatility factor can’t be ignored either. ChatGPT handles everything from Instagram captions to email sequences to blog posts about styling tips. It’s like having an LBD for your content needs.

Limitations of using ChatGPT in fashion copywriting:

AI generated copy can feel as generic as fast fashion if you don’t add your personal touch. ChatGPT doesn’t understand the subtle emotional triggers that make your brand unique. It can’t capture the feeling of slipping into that perfect vintage jacket or the confidence boost from wearing a piece that truly represents your style.

As I usually tell my clients… “AI works well for tasks like generating product descriptions or email drafts, but it needs a human touch to ensure the messaging resonates with your audience.”

How to Use ChatGPT for copywriting and marketing in your fashion business

Using AI for Email Campaigns 

Email marketing is a great marketing channel for all fashion business owners and fashion marketing professionals. Add ChatGPT to your email marketing tech stack to brainstorm and organise content ideas, draft click-worthy subject lines, and engaging copy.

How ChatGPT can write Product Descriptions

For many small fashion brands, product descriptions are a big time taker. With new styles dropping monthly, or even every few months, it can feel demanding to constantly think of what to write to win over customers to buy your product. Try using ChatGPT to generate your product descriptions, which can help speed up your workflow. 

The best use of ChatGPT for Social Media content

Social Media can feel like a never-ending grind. Many fashion brands rely on social media as a key marketing channel to connect with loyal customers and attract new ones. This means there’s always a need to create new, engaging social media content across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn… and the list goes on. Integrate ChatGPT into your workflow to accelerate the process, reclaim your time, and generate content ideas that genuinely engage your audience. 

Speed up Blog Content creation with AI

If you’re creating educational content like blog posts, authority driven pieces, or writing long form articles, that positions you as a fashion authority, ChatGPT can help. Ask ChatGPT to help create topic outlines, draft blogs, and even edit and spell check final versions. You can ask AI to help you with anything from writing guides, seasonal trends, to styling guides, or industry insights that keep your audience coming back for more.

The 80/20 rule of using ChatGPT in fashion and still sounding human

10% – You come up with the overall strategy and direction of the content and give ChatGPT a really insightful prompt to give you the best output. 

80% – The generative AI does the heavy lifting of coming up with outlines, first drafts, and headline ideas.

10% – You come in for a final edit to give it a ‘human’ touch at the end, ensuring the content still carries your brand’s personality, voice, and tone. 

Simple editing tips for making AI sound *On Brand*

The magic happens in the editing phase. Once you have your ChatGPT generated draft, then adjust the tone to match your brand personality. Make sure you’re clear on your brand values and brand voice so all your content across different channels sounds like YOU or your brand. 

The extra hidden layer is sprinkling in personal anecdotes or specific details that only you would know about your products or design process. 

Pay attention to vocabulary/word choices. If your audience consists of eco-conscious millennials, incorporate sustainability language naturally. If you’re targeting luxury consumers, elevate the sophistication level of your descriptions. 

Use ChatGPT’s regenerate feature strategically. If the first version feels too corporate, ask for a more conversational tone. If it’s too casual, request something more polished. Think of it as having multiple drafts at your fingertips.

Remove anything that looks and feels like the typical ChatGPT content

Here’s a quick checklist of the most commonly used AI nuances and words that make it obvious you used ChatGPT to write your content.

Ready to give your fashion marketing and copywriting a glow up?

ChatGPT is a TOOL. It’s not an entire solution. And it’s a powerful tool to have in your fashion tech stack, especially for small fashion businesses and fashion brand owners balancing multiple responsibilities. 

AI won’t replace the nuanced understanding of a seasoned copywriter, but it can be a great starting point if copywriting and content creation are something you find difficult. Look at AI as your fashion copywriting partner, not your replacement. Use it to overcome writer’s block, generate ideas, and handle routine copywriting tasks, then add your unique perspective to make the content authentically yours.

ChatGPT will never replace hiring a strategic high conversion fashion copywriter

A skilled fashion copywriter can work with you to streamline your entire marketing strategy and funnel. They can create copy that performs above industry averages. 

For brands that rely heavily on content to generate revenue, a fashion copywriter is a great investment to scale your business and connect with your audience on a deep, psychological level.
