More about Virtual Styling Apps and how it works…
There isn’t a specific rule book for styling apps, they may be developed as “The Business” or be developed as “ Part of The Business”. Nowadays, most of the fashion E-commerce websites provides the virtual styling feature as a compatible feature to their main business, and guess what? IT IS RULING! These apps work in more than one way, if it is “the business” it mainly works on the input of the user where the user take photos of their clothes, upload them on the app and start “Matchmaking”, and some apps provide you with access to personal consultants 24/7!
Some other way around is providing this feature on a fashion e-commerce website as we mentioned before, so it basically would help you buy the outfit of your dreams. You pick things up and start trying them together on the app, and then buy whatever suits you the most! This definitely flips the fashion world upside down! You don’t need a personal stylist anymore, you don’t need to take to take photos of your outfits and show it to friends before buying them! Now, all you’ve got to do is pick your clothes and virtually check them out before buying them, EASY!
