Where virtual try-on struggles

Oct 17, 2026TryOnAnytimeTryOnAnytime

Honest limits: lighting, pose, sheer fabrics, busy patterns, camera permissions, and why try-on is a fit check — not a tape measure.

Virtual try-on is useful when it is honest about failure modes.

Photos & garments

  • Soft or uneven lighting, extreme poses, and occlusions (hands, bags, hair) can warp silhouettes.
  • Sheer, shiny, or heavily patterned fabrics are harder to composite cleanly.
  • Cropped or low-resolution garment shots reduce detail on seams and logos.

Live camera

  • Needs a modern browser over HTTPS and a working front camera.
  • If the browser remembers a denied permission, only site settings can re-enable it — we surface that empty state in the studio.
  • Unstable networks may interrupt live segments; photo try-on remains available.

Fit expectations

We help you see an outfit on your body. We do not replace a tape measure or brand-specific size charts. Use try-on together with the store’s size guide.
