REVIEW:
The app is really simple to use, upon opening it asks for some basic information e.g. age, picture, body shape, then gives options for users to select from e.g. two different types of dresses to gauge what style the consumer prefers. From here the app then asks the user to chose an event they need an outfit for from a list of several including 'gym' 'concert' 'romantic date'. Then the user has to select a top or dress from the database and the app will generate outfit suggestions. There are limited tops and dresses on the database and rarely did I find one to my personal taste, but there are lots of options. In addition, it is good that if you don't like the outfit option suggested you can ask for a new one and it will keep producing them. It's a good little app for generating outfit inspiration, however if you don't own the items in the database or anything similar then it's not helpful. Although, saying that, the purpose of the app is to help with shopping purchases, so in this sense it is good that it can show you  a range of outfit options with one key component e.g. a leopard print top. Moreover, it offers style advice on the home page advising what clothing pieces to go for in regards to your body shape.
