How it works
CATCHES Virtual Try-On is a cloud-based service that runs on the online stores of fashion brands and retailers. These are the questions we are asked most often. For an introduction to CATCHES, see the About page.
How do I try on a garment, and what happens once I create an account?
Open the try-on. On a participating merchant’s product page, select the try-on button. The CATCHES Virtual Try-On opens on the page, in your browser. There is nothing to download or install.
Enter your measurements. Enter your height, weight and age. You can add further measurements, such as chest, waist, hips and inside leg, to make the fit more accurate.
Add a photograph. If you are 18 or over, you can upload or take a photograph of your face, so the try-on looks like you. This step is optional.
Select a size. Choose a size to try. CATCHES processes your photograph and measurements and shows how the garment looks and fits on your own body in that size, as an image and a video. You can switch between the sizes available for your measurements to compare them.
Create your account. To keep your measurements, enter your email address or mobile number, or continue with Google. With email or mobile, CATCHES sends you a one-time code, and entering it creates your account. There is no password to set, and no payment details are asked for.
Use your account again. The next time you open the try-on, on the same store or on another store that uses CATCHES, sign in and your measurements are already there. You can change your measurements, remove your photograph or sign out from your profile at any time.
Buy from the merchant. After your virtual try-on data is entered, CATCHES takes you to the selected merchant’s product page for the garment in the size you selected with your representative measurements. You buy the garment there, in the merchant’s own checkout.
Do I pay a subscription to use CATCHES?
No. CATCHES Virtual Try-On is free for shoppers. There is no subscription and no charge for creating an account or for trying garments on, and CATCHES does not ask for or store your payment details. You pay the merchant only for what you choose to buy, in the merchant’s own checkout.
Do I need to download an app?
No. CATCHES is cloud-based and non-downloadable. The try-on runs in your web browser, on the merchant’s product page.
How do fashion brands and retailers use CATCHES?
Merchants add the CATCHES Virtual Try-On widget to the product pages of their online store. They use it to promote and sell their products on their websites, and to measure which try-ons lead to purchases. CATCHES is provided to merchants as a service under a commercial agreement. To add CATCHES to your store, contact us.
What happens to my photograph and measurements?
They are used to create your try-ons. You can remove your photograph at any time. Our Privacy Policy explains this in full.
Where can I see CATCHES?
CATCHES is live on products at Amiri and The Outnet. The About page links to them.
