Luxury e-boutique Net-A-Porter is launching its own social network app titled the 'Net Set.'
The Net Set app will feature an Instagram-like interface and allow users to shop and share in a social media-like setting. Like Instagram, users will create a profile, follow others, scroll through a live feed and like items by clicking on a red heart shape. This app also lets users upload their own photos and provides them with a source and an option to shop whatever piece is in the photo. The uploaded photo also evokes a "style matches" feature that will collect and source other garments, accessories, and beauty products best worn with the item in the photo.
The Net Set will be free for download on May 13th and will be compatible with all Apple and Android products.
