Chatbot design approaches for fashion E-commerce: an interdisciplinary review

Abstract

Chatbots can bring innovation in online assistance and communication with customers. Due to the growth of e-commerce, fashion brands have been adopting chatbots to provide personalised consumer experiences. Research in the area of chatbots for fashion e-commerce has addressed technological advancements and consumer behaviour, but little has been done on analysing chatbot features through a holistic point of view. The aim of this paper is to offer an interdisciplinary review through a comprehensive categorisation of recent studies on the theme and inform future research in the area. To achieve that, a theme-based literature review was carried out through the analysis of specialised research. The collected work was categorised addressing both computational and non-computational perspectives. The findings show that Deep Learning, recommendation systems, audio recognition and integration of chatbots with other fashion applications are a few design opportunities to be applied in both research and practice.
