 Love to shop! Hate dressing rooms. Canadian start-up triMirror develops first real-time 3D virtual fitting software

If you wear clothes, you know the entire frustrating process of driving to the mall, parking, sorting through racks of clothes, wasting time in the fitting room, maybe with screaming kids beside you, finding nothing that fits and only feeling disappointment and self-consciousness. Does this seem more up your alley?

Technology that fits. The world's most advanced fitting room is in the palm of your hands.

triMirror has developed the world’s first real-time solution which:

• Allows the try-on of real clothes using their actual designs and fabric characteristics
• On accurate avatar bodies that you customize using a measuring tape or a 3D body scanner
• Shows you where the garment is tight or loose using tension maps
• Shows you where it juts out or sags down
• Shows you how it behaves while moving in various ways
• Shows it from every possible angle simultaneously (you certainly can’t do that in a store!)
• Lets you compare it side-by-side with other sizes and styles
• Lets you create different outfits with shoes of different styles and heels

The Skinny Red Stretch Jeans

Naked & Famous Denim www.nakedandfamousdenim.com uses only the most unique and rare denim fabrics from Japan, with the best style and fits around. Made in Canada.  These jeans showcase our technology perfectly – as you saw in our video above, our model tried them both on in size 27. However, the black ones fit perfectly as they are stretchy and soft, while the red ones refused to be put on! Using our system, you would know that in advance, because knowing just your size isn’t enough.

Try on real clothes to see how they fit and move in real-time online or via mobile. Go beyond the point of no returns!

You may have tried to avoid this experience by shopping for clothes online, but very few people feel comfortable enough to actually buy anything. That’s because, even for your favourite brand, size charts are not consistent – a brand’s every product line, every style of garment, and every fabric type has its own sizing that’s unpredictable. And when people actually do buy clothes online, they often buy multiple sizes and return the rest – on average, 35% of clothes bought online are returned. Actually, even if a garment is your right size, it may not be flattering on you – perhaps it gaps out, sags down, or is generally not your style.

About triMirror

triMirror’s vision is to revolutionize the global apparel industry from design to shopping to entertainment. We've developed a virtual fitting room with 3D clothing simulation and fitting technology that shows how the clothing would really look on and fit the user via a web-browser, smartphone, in-store installation, or virtual mirror with motion tracking (beyond AR, it allows fit judgement and animated cloth behaviour). It's the first real-time solution in the world that allows the try-on of real clothes on real-dimensioned and highly customizable avatar bodies, and which allows the user to see where the garment is tight or loose, where it juts out or sags down, and how it behaves when they move around in various ways.
