Challenges

Solution

Helping people choosing and planning outfits, from their wardrobe, while dealing with time constraints, cognitive overload, budget and style preferences.

A Smart closet application that knows the user’s personal taste and style according to his clothes, advises what to wear, what to buy and increases self confidence by coordinating outfits for every event and  getting the most out of their wardrobe.

CLOFIT

Closet Management App

CLOFIT is a clean, smart & easy to use tool to help you manage your closet and daily outfits. The app helps you discover & organize outfit ideas, with technology, that learns your personal style.

Who of us has not encountered the problem of standing in the morning in front of a closet full of clothes and thinks: I’ve got nothing to wear or how will I know if these trousers integrate with my closet? And when we try to find inspiration on the social networks, the opposite happens and we just feel frustrated and insecure when faced with “perfect photographs”. Studies show that 50% of women and some 40% of men precisely feel this way! For this purpose, CLOFIT was created.

RESEARCH

The research that I carried out included integration of a review of articles and interviews

Review of articles
A new study by a team of psychology scientists at the University of California, Northbridge University and Columbia University, found that the clothes that we wear can also influence the way we think. Formal dress increases abstract thinking and provides individuals with a broader point of view.

Use of the internet as an inspiration tool is not effective as the social comparison causes a decrease in self esteem and could lead to social anxiety.

It has been claimed that social comparison causes and contributes to low self esteem. The more the idealistic information presented by means of social media has increased social comparative norms, the more that people spend time on social networks, the greater the probabilities that the others live better lives and are happier and more successful, which decreases their self esteem (Stapleton et al, 2017).

People with low self esteem tend to be dependent on external social approval for a better self esteem. They often  perceive that others are looking at them, and they interpret reactions by others as being hostile, which could lead to increased social anxiety (Cuming & Rapee, 2010).

Interviews  
Three interviews were conducted with people at various stages in their lives. From these interviews I concluded that the main problems in selecting an outfit are:

         Confusion

         They do not know which item of clothing is suitable therefore they return to the “familiar and good”, 5-9               items that are regularly worn.

         Time     

Clothes are selected about half an hour before leaving.

         Styling   

A sense that the fashion selections are unsuitable for the event (everyday clothes for events, too many/too few accessories etc.). Furthermore, they do not rely on their personal fashion sense.

         Impulsive and trendy shopping     

Clothes are purchased because you feel like it without any thought whether the item is suitable for the existing clothes closet.

         Inspiration   

The social networks present an unrealistic model of appearance and body shape. It is difficult to take inspiration from models who present one type of body shape while in real life there is a much broader spectrum.

         Budget

It is impossible to change your clothes closet every season. People want to look good but not to break their savings account.

         Overloading

The feeling of daily overload prevents people from dedicating much time in selecting outfits. People already give up in advance because they think that will lighten the daily cognitive load.

KEY TAKEWAYS

  • Creation of stylistic platforms clear of sources that will decrease self esteem and that are not occupied with age, weight or body shape; They are engaged solely with an aesthetic combination of clothes.

  • The convenience of the application is extremely important to reducing the sense of daily overload.

  • Creation of a simple and easy process for use even by technophobes.

  • Provision of a feeling that the application is empowering just like a close friend

  • Help in Smart purchasing of items while integrating them with the existing clothes closet.
