Tired of staring into your wardrobe like it’s betrayed you? Google Photos’ new AI-powered wardrobe feature is here to help (if you’re rocking an Android phone, that is).
Rolling out this summer, the feature aims to turn your camera roll into a personal stylist. It works by scanning your photo library to identify clothing you’ve worn in the past, then organises those items into a dedicated digital wardrobe.
From there, you can start building outfits directly inside the app. Mix and match pieces, save combinations to moodboards for different occasions, or share them with friends if you’re the type who crowdsources outfit decisions.
And yes, virtual try-ons are also available. Google says you’ll be able to preview outfits on a digital avatar before you actually get dressed, giving you a rough idea of how combinations will look without committing to the full outfit change.
It’s too early to tell whether this is just another AI gimmick or something that will prove genuinely useful. Given that I have the wardrobe depth of a Simpson’s character, it probably won’t do much for me. But if you’ve got an impressive collection of garments and often get choice paralysis, it sounds like it could be worth a shot.
Interested? Google says that the Wardrobe feature will arrive on Android first this summer, before heading to iOS later on.
