Best Practices for Best Results
Photo Quality Matters
Higher quality photos produce better results. Use good lighting and clear images.
Complete Your Profile
A complete profile helps the AI understand your body type better for more accurate results.
Try Different Angles
If the first result isn't perfect, try again with a slightly different photo angle.
Use Appropriate Clothing
Virtual try-on works best with upper body clothing like shirts, dresses, and jackets.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Face not detected
Make sure your face is clearly visible and well-lit. Remove sunglasses or face coverings.
Poor quality result
Try using a higher resolution photo with better lighting. Ensure the background is not too busy.
Clothing doesn't fit well in result
This is normal as virtual try-on is a simulation. Use it as a guide for style, not exact fit.
