Metail's #ShareYourCher Lets You Try on Cher Horowitz' Clothes
Laura McQuarrie — July 5, 2014 — Business
Metail is a virtual fitting room technology that takes details like your body measurements, hairstyle and skintone to show exactly how you will look in a garment, with a 3D model that's over 94% accurate.
There are tons of virtual fitting room apps out there that will let you see how a garment will look on a random digital model and while this can be useful for helping you to spot details that you hadn't seen before, it doesn't replace being able to see a garment on yourself.
This kind of technology was dreamed up years ago, but it's taken a while to get there. If you watched Clueless, you know that this kind of technology is exactly the way Cher Horowitz picked out her outfits. Building on this, Metail is hosting the #ShareYourCher contest, where you can try Cher's iconic wardrobe yourself.
