What Happens When You Upload

Your garment goes through three AI processing stages in seconds

01

Garment Analysis

AI scans your image to identify fabric type, cut lines, seams, buttons, and pattern details with precision.

02

Fabric Intelligence

AI learns how your specific fabric type naturally drapes, folds, and responds to movement on a body.

03

Smart Fitting

The garment is precisely fitted to your chosen model, respecting body proportions and natural pose dynamics.

The Details That Matter

What sets professional AI-generated imagery apart from basic filters

Silk fabric flowing naturally on model

Fabric Physics

Silk flows elegantly, denim holds its structure, knit stretches naturally. Each fabric type behaves exactly as it would in real life.

Striped shirt with aligned patterns at seams

Pattern Alignment

Stripes match perfectly at seams, prints maintain their scale, and patterns never warp or stretch unnaturally.

Sheer blouse showing proper transparency

Transparency

Sheer fabrics reveal skin beneath, lace overlays layer correctly, and mesh materials show accurate see-through effects.

Jacket with realistic metal buttons and zipper

Hardware & Trim

Buttons catch light realistically, zippers reflect their surroundings, and metal hardware has proper depth and shine.

Garment showing true-to-life color reproduction

Color Accuracy

Original product colors preserved exactly as photographed. No unwanted shifts, saturation changes, or color bleeding.

Realistic fabric creases and folds on model

Natural Wrinkles

Realistic creases and folds appear where fabric naturally compresses — at elbows, waist, and movement points.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our AI virtual try-on technology

What types of garment photos work best?
Flat-lay photos on a clean, neutral background produce the best results. Your image should show the entire garment with good lighting and minimal shadows. Photos taken on white, gray, or light wood surfaces work particularly well. Avoid images with mannequins, hangers visible, or busy backgrounds.
How long does it take to generate a try-on image?
Most images are ready in 15-30 seconds. Processing time can vary slightly depending on garment complexity — a simple t-shirt processes faster than a detailed evening gown with beading. You can upload multiple garments and they'll process in parallel.
Can I use my own model photos?
Yes. You can upload photos of your own models or use our diverse library of AI-generated models. When using your own model photos, ensure they're high-resolution with the model in a neutral pose against a simple background for best results.
What happens to my uploaded images?
Your garment photos and generated images are stored securely and remain your property. We don't use your images to train our AI or share them with third parties. You can delete your images at any time from your dashboard.
Does it work with patterned fabrics like stripes or plaid?
Yes, and this is one of our strengths. Our AI maintains pattern continuity across seams and ensures stripes align correctly at shoulders, sides, and sleeves. The technology understands how patterns should flow naturally on a body in motion.
What garment types are supported?
We support most upper-body and full-body garments including t-shirts, blouses, dresses, jackets, coats, sweaters, and jumpsuits. Currently, we don't support standalone bottoms (pants, skirts), swimwear, or accessories like hats and bags.
Can I adjust how the garment fits on the model?
You can choose from different model body types and poses to show how your garment looks on various figures. The AI automatically determines the most realistic fit based on the garment's construction. Manual fit adjustments aren't available as they could compromise realism.
What image resolution do I get?
Generated images are high-resolution (up to 2048x2048 pixels), suitable for e-commerce product pages, social media, and marketing materials. You can download images in WebP or PNG format.
