How AR is used in Fashion?

Augmented Reality has become a key component of the fashion industry in recent years and is increasingly being used to enhance and improve the fashion shopping experience. One way that AR is being utilized in fashion is through online shopping platforms, which allow users to view different products on themselves virtually using AR technology. This provides consumers with an easier way to visualize how an item will look and fit, helping them to make more informed purchasing decisions. Additionally, fashion and jewelry retailers are also increasingly turning to AR as a tool for creating new shopping experiences by providing virtual try-on capabilities. Overall, it is clear that AR holds great potential for the fashion industry going forward, and will continue to shape the way we think about fashion in the years to come.

How AR is used in Fashion

Over the past year, the retail landscape has undergone a digital transformation. Augmented reality technology has become an essential aspect of the online shopping journey. Famous retailer Amazon announced earlier of their new feature - 'Virtual Try-On for Shoes' - which allows the customers to visualize how the pair of shoes will look on them by only using phone's camer.

The Latest Augmented Reality Technology Trend in the Fashion Industry

Nowadays, virtual try-on experiences allow consumers to try on clothing or shoes before they buy, AR filters allow users to experiment with different eyewear and jewelry styles and even virtual piercing try on is available from their mobile devices. Fashion tech integrations enable brands to meet consumers where they are and connect with consumers in a hyper-personalized way.

Fashion tech tools featuring augmented reality and artificial intelligence technologies also help to increase purchasing confidence as consumers can see how clothing and fashion accessories (e.g. earrings) will look before they purchase a new item for their wardrobe.

In an industry where on average 30%-50% of all purchases are returned, fashion tech provides tremendous value to both brands and consumers.

For brands, fashion tech tools such as virtual try-on help to increase online sales, build personalized experiences, reduce item returns and customer service calls.

For consumers, virtual try-on provides a highly engaging digital touch point with the brand that helps to inspire and increase purchasing confidence.

This is especially important for luxury products such as jewelry (earrings, necklaces, and bracelets) where a consumer needs to interact with and feel certain about an item before investing. With the help of AR, customers will be able to visualize exactly how the virtual jewelry will look on them before making any major decisions.

The Future of Fashion AR in Retail

During the pandemic, fitting rooms and in-store try-ons became inaccessible as lockdowns and social distancing guidelines forced many brick-and-mortar stores to temporarily close.

Faced with this challenge, fashion brands sought to optimize their ecommerce sales and bring the in-store experience of fashion online in an engaging and personalized way.

Nike: Virtual Try On for Shoes

For example, Nike also announced a new application called 'Nike Fit'. By using AR technology, the application scans the foot and finds the shoe size, then visualizes how the item will look on them for the customers.

To meet this need, brands turned to fashion tech solutions to enhance their onsite shopping experiences. Not only do fashion retailers like Nike adopt augmented reality into their marketing strategy, but there are also more and more jewelry retailers starting to integrate the virtual try-on capability into their websites.

Consumers have come to expect “try before you buy” experiences online, setting the stage for the future of fashion retail.

How to Create Personalized Experiences for Your Fashion Accessory Brands With AR
