This is such a great idea. I can see it being really useful. Can't wait to see it evolve!

You can make a ton of money doing that. I personally don't find a ton of value in this as a consumer. I want to see how the clothes look on me, not on a model.

Yeah, we are gonna do it for a few clients and see how well that works. Could be a quicker way to market than the dressing room. "I personally don't find a ton of value in this as a consumer.

Agree, I bet everyone wants to see outfit on themself or a…
I definitely can see this becoming a standard thing. It's not an earth shattering improvement but enough of one for everyone to want it.

#43Hi, as someone interested in both ML and fashion, this is pretty cool!
How are you addressing the idiosyncrasies of how clothing can fit differently? Personally, I like wearing a variety of different fits (slim/boxy/etc).
From your demo, it seems like the model is learning a single type of fit (the average of your training data?) and then mapping a texture + details onto this single fit.
In physical reality, the fit of a garment is obviously affected by both body type and garment measurements (as alluded to in other comments). Data quality (e.g., consistent scale and angle) also would be important. I imagine that because of these factors, the fit estimation problem is very challenging.
Best of luck with these interesting challenges!

#44I remember seven or eight years ago thinking about how this would be a great use case for VR and would transform the way we shop for clothes. Cool to see you starting to make this a reality. Good luck!

#45I love the idea of this! One issue I noticed is that adding a jacket does not seem to work. It shows me the loading circle, then goes back to the shirt / pants / no jacket image.
Thank you and thanks for trying out the demo! The jackets should work, can you point to which jacket(s) don't work? It is also possible you caught us updating something in the backend while trying.
It appears to be working now. Great launch demo!

#46How will you compete with Facebook, which is already doing this and giving this functionality and more away for free, and also owns the only channels that matter for fashion digital ads?

#47Awesome product. As others have said, this has huge potential in eliminating costly photoshoots. If you can find a few big brands to partner with, you can completely disrupt the modeling industry.
Haha yeah, photoshoots are definitely not the first thing in our mind, but seems like there's real need for it.
I'm going to hazard a guess that it's because the tech isn't quite there yet? People pay expensive money for photoshoots because of the quality but as far as I'm aware generative technology isn't quite there yet? Or who knows, you guys could be the breakthrough!

#48I appreciate that your offering diverse skin tone gradient, but the first four skin tones are way too similarly pale at the moment. It’s not a gradient yet, it’s 4 light and 2 dark.
Looks like a super useful product. congrats

It’s hard to build a product that shows you how clothes fit on someone like you as a B2B service. Retailers don’t want to showcase their clothes on anyone who isn’t anatomically perfect. Plus, if you try to source a more diverse set of “models” from real people wearing clothes, you run into the problem that most people are uncomfortable sharing photos of themselves “modeling” clothes publicly.
You’re also right that fit is only a part of the picture, and even the terms fit and style don’t quite capture what’s really going on you really want to see what clothes are going to look like on someone who looks like you and dresses like you (same preferences for fit, style, etc). Again, hard as B2B for sure.
I’ve been working on a B2C solution in this space for a while (fitfirst.app)…all too familiar with the nuances and intricacies in this space.
Fun fact and totally tangential: if you have two clothes with the exact same measurements and material that are dyed different colors, the darker dyed version tends to feel tighter than the lighter dyed one. Has to do with how the dye feels on the skin. It’s a nuance you can’t get from a photo or rendering.

#50Interesting and congratulations for launching! :) ON a side note the bags look ugly, I was expecting them to be resized and appearing as held by hands. Instead I got this: https://imgur.com/a/xsJAKR6 Is this something you're aware of? PS: I really like the wrinkling on clothes.
Ah, the bag feature is very new, and sth we're still working on to improve. Sorry for the disappointment, but thx for the feedback.
Why release something this awful? There is zero contextual awareness of bag type/shape and model hand positioning
