Virtual try-on, catalog-scale (v1)
An early production try-on pipeline — garment swaps across a model catalog using inpainting and manual masking. Print fidelity held only at medium distance, but the studio shipped a 200-SKU catalog with it.
The first proof that try-on pipelines could survive contact with a real client deadline.
The how
- Manual garment masks per pose (the slow part — ~10 minutes each).
- SDXL inpainting swaps garments; a color-matching pass corrects fabric tone.
- Detail shots done conventionally — the pipeline couldn’t hold print at close range.
- ~200 SKUs shipped over three weeks with two operators.
Run it back
Superseded — the LoRA-based approach holds garment detail without manual masking and at close range. See the current entry.
