US 2014/0279289 A1 · Mobile Application and Method for Virtual Dressing Room Visualization

Abstract

A mobile application enables an online shopper to see how an item of clothing will look on them—simulating an actual trying-it-on-session in the dressing room—before purchasing it. The online shopper downloads the TRY IT ON—ONLINE™ mobile application to his or her mobile communications device. Once the shopper has downloaded the mobile application to his or her mobile communications device, a series of prompts ask the shopper for information about their size, body shape, and skin tone. Once the screens are populated with this information, the mobile application guides the shopper through their online shopping excursion, and, like a personal shopper, helps them select an article of clothing that will fit and flatter their body shape. Before purchasing the item, the shopper can try it on virtually just as if they were in a dressing room at the store.
