What virtual try-on actually does

You provide two kinds of references: a full-body photo of yourself, and the garments you want to wear — from your closet, a shopping trip, or an inspiration photo. Kaloft then creates a styling art photo of you in those pieces, and keeps the garment faithful to the reference: the same cut, sleeve length, neckline, fabric, pattern, and details.

That combination is the useful part. A garment on a model tells you how it looks on that model. A garment on you, in the scene you are dressing for, tells you whether the outfit works.

Getting the most accurate result

  • Use a recent full-body photo. Stand straight, keep your arms slightly away from your body, and avoid heavy filters.
  • Face a window, not a lamp. Even daylight keeps your features and the garment colors honest.
  • Photograph garments flat or front-on. Spread the piece out or hang it straight, and avoid strong shadows across the fabric.
  • Describe the moment. An occasion — a workday, a dinner, a weekend trip — leads to a scene and a pose that fit the outfit instead of a generic studio portrait.

There are 36 scenes to choose from, grouped by the light they put your outfit in — see the full scene library.

Try an outfit you already own, or one you are considering

Two workflows cover most decisions. For clothes you own, add them to your wardrobe once and reuse them forever. For clothes you are considering, bring a photo from the shop or a screenshot and see how the piece behaves with what is already in your closet — which is exactly the question a product page cannot answer.

If a look is close but not right, you can regenerate it with specific feedback: keep the same outfit but change the background, change the pose, or push the clothing reference closer. You get a second look instead of starting over.

The same references also let you recreate an outfit you saw in a photo using pieces you already own.

Privacy comes first

Your photos are yours. Kaloft uses them to create your own styling photos, and you can delete your account and its images from inside the app. Styles from other people are only used as clothing references — never as a substitute subject.
