How AI is changing the way we shop for clothes online
Online fashion retail suffers from a fundamental challenge: shoppers can't try clothes before buying. This leads to high return rates (estimated 30–40% for apparel), wasted time, and environmental impact from shipping. Traditional size guides and model photos often fail to convey how a garment will look on a specific body type.

Virtual try-on complements, rather than replaces, in-store shopping. Use it to narrow down your choices before going to the store or committing to an online order.
AI try-on technology has improved dramatically but is not perfect. Results are most accurate for tops, dresses, and outerwear. Fit accuracy depends on the quality of your uploaded photo and the source garment image. Always check size guides for final purchase decisions.
