FitMoi

Project Overview & Goal

FitMoi is a virtual try-on platform that uses Augmented Reality (AR) to transform the online fashion shopping experience.
  • Mission: Deliver a seamless and personalized virtual try-on experience that bridges digital and physical retail.
  • Vision: Empower customers to make confident, informed purchase decisions while supporting sustainability and reducing unnecessary returns.
  • Approach: Use real-time body scanning and AR garment overlay to replicate the in-store try-on experience through the user’s camera.

The Opportunity

Online shoppers face several ongoing challenges that directly impact conversion and satisfaction:
  1. Size Inconsistency: A large portion of shoppers struggle to identify the correct size across brands.
  2. High Return Rates: Nearly half of all fashion returns are due to size and fit issues.
  3. Poor Visualization: Many shoppers cannot imagine how clothing will actually look on their body.
  4. Rising AR Demand: Users increasingly prefer interactive and immersive digital shopping experiences.
FitMoi directly addresses these gaps with an accessible and accurate AR solution.

FitMoi provides a fully interactive and realistic AR try-on system that improves user confidence at every stage of the shopping journey.
  • Real-Time AR Sizing : Generates highly accurate size estimation using body scanning.
  • Interactive Try-On : Overlays clothing in real-time, allowing the user to change colors, styles, and angles.

  • Sustainability Impact : By helping shoppers choose the correct size, FitMoi reduces returns and promotes eco-friendly shopping behaviors.
