Upload a Photo
The first step in a virtual try-on is selecting a photo of yourself.
Uploading
In Fit View, you'll see the photo upload area as Step 1. You can:
- Drag and drop an image onto the upload zone
- Click to browse and select a file from your computer
Supported formats: JPG and PNG.
Recent uploads
Glimmer caches your last 3 uploaded photos for quick reuse. They appear as thumbnails below the upload zone — click one to select it without re-uploading.
Tips for best results
The AI works best with photos that give it clear body landmarks and minimal visual noise:
- Good lighting — Even, natural light. Avoid harsh shadows or backlighting.
- Clear pose — Stand naturally, facing the camera. Arms slightly away from your body help the AI understand your silhouette.
- Plain background — A simple, uncluttered background lets the AI focus on you.
- Visible torso — At minimum, the photo should show from shoulders to hips. Full-body shots work well for dresses, pants, and outerwear.
- Fitted clothing — Wearing something relatively close to your body gives the AI better landmarks. Baggy clothing can obscure proportions.
Privacy
Your uploaded photos are stored securely in Glimmer's storage and scoped to your account. No one else can access them. Photos are cleaned up when no longer needed.
