Google has released an AI app for trying on clothes

Google Labs is making virtual clothing fitting available to everyone thanks to a new experimental AI app called Doppl, the company announced on its blog. Users can upload a photo of themselves and an image of any outfit to see how it would look on them, as well as create an AI video of themselves in motion in that garment.

To use the app, you must first upload a full-length photo of yourself and then select photos or screenshots of outfits. For example, you can save images from Pinterest, online stores, or even take a photo of second hand clothes. You can also use a photo of a friend wearing the outfit you want.

After selecting an outfit, Doppl (short for «doppelgänger», apparently) will generate an image of you in that outfit and convert it into a short video. You can view other outfits, save images you like, and share them. Admittedly, Google notes that Doppl is in the early stages of development, and the accuracy of fit, appearance, and details of the outfit may not always be realistic.

Google recently introduced a similar fitting feature in its Shopping service, but Doppl works as a separate app. It could become a popular social media distraction, but perhaps also a tool for collecting data on user preferences. Right now, Doppl is available on iOS and Android, but only in the US.
