We’ve all been there. We’ve browsed for clothes online, seen how it looks on models and thought, hey, I think that would look good on me too. But then the clothes arrive and it looks nothing like what we imagined. Google wants to change that with an upcoming AI-powered wardrobe feature for Google Photos.
Google Photos gets AI-powered wardrobe feature
The Google Photos wardrobe feature is pretty straightforward. Google will look through your existing photo library, identify clothing items that appear in your pictures, and organize everything into a dedicated wardrobe collection. From there, you’ll be able to filter by category. You can browse tops, bottoms, jewelry, and more separately, or scroll through everything at once. That has an additional benefit of rediscovering pieces you forgot you owned.
Once you’re done browsing, you can even mix and match items and save them to digital moodboards. You can keep separate boards for different situations too, like a work outfit board, a vacation board, or a summer weddings board. You can even share outfits with friends directly from the app.
Trying them on virtually
This is probably the most interesting aspect of the Google Photos wardrobe feature. Say you want to see how certain clothes look like on you if you mixed and matched. All you have to do is select individual pieces from your wardrobe collection, tap “Try it on.” Google will then show you a preview of how the outfit looks on you before you actually get dressed using the power of AI.
Google has already been expanding its AI services across Search and Shopping. They have also been building AI features in Photos for a while now, so this feels like a natural progression. The difference here is that it works with clothes you already own, not just things you’re shopping for.
This is also worth noting because of how much Google Photos has changed lately. Features like Ask Photos already let you query your own library in useful ways. Adding a wardrobe layer on top of that makes Google Photos into something closer to a personal style assistant, rather than a simple photo storage app. Whether the try-on quality holds up in practice will be the real test.
