Virtual Garments

Virtual Garments are the main ingredient for your virtual dressing room. They need to be created for each of your products to be able to use them in the dressing room.

To create virtual garments, your shop will need to connect to the PICTOFIT CMS. You can find a button to do this in our setup guide or alternatively in the settings section of the app.

The connect action triggers a pop up so make sure to check your blocker if it doesn't show up.

Once your store is linked to the PICTOFiT CMS, you are able to create virtual garments in the Product section within the PICTOFiT Virtual Try-On.

This section shows all products that are available in your store. Besides the product name and the status, that are identical to the product section of Shopify, you will find three additional columns:

  • Virtual Garment

  • Available in Dressing Room

  • Actions

Virtual Garment

This column tells you if a Virtual Garment has been created for the respective product. You will see one of the following three states indicating that:

  • MISSING No virtual garment has been created for this product

  • IN PROGRESS Virtual garment is being created a the moment

  • ADDED Virtual Garment has been created and is linked to the product

Available in Dressing Room

Here you can decide if the Virtual Garment can be added to the Dressing Room by your customer (the requirement is that the state of the Virtual Garment ADDED ). Unticking this checkbox also removes the “Add to Dressing Room” button from the product detail page, as well as the “Hanger Icon” for that product.

Actions

The buttons in this column let you create a virtual garment, remove the virtual garment or check the virtual garment in the PICTOFiT CMS.
