Which Products Are Best Suited for Virtual Try-On?

Clothing, shoes, bags and accessories work well. Swimwear has Size Charts; Virtual Try-On is blocked by Google image safety.

Written by Ben Nyberg

AI Frame's Virtual Try-On & Size Chart works across clothing, shoes, bags and accessories, but a few simple choices make try-on results look their best.

Products that shine with Try-On

  • Clothing: tops, bottoms, dresses, jackets, knitwear. The clearer the garment shape, the better.

  • Shoes: especially with clean, front-facing product shots.

  • Bags & accessories: jewellery (necklace, rings, bracelet), sunglasses, hats, caps, socks.

Swimwear: Size Charts work, including the Swimwear template. Virtual Try-On does not run on swimwear — Google's image safety policy blocks those renders. Shoppers still see Size Chart next to Size. If they tap Try On, they see that try-on isn't available for this product.

Hide the Try On pill on types that shouldn't try on (gift cards, homeware) under Exclude product types — that list comes from your Shopify catalog. Size Chart and Sizing assist still show on assigned products.

Getting the best results

The single biggest factor is the product image try-on uses. By default that's the first product image. If that shot is a model in a full outfit, several items, or an angled shot, pick a better one on Virtual Try-On → Try-on reference photo. AI Frame can also suggest a stronger image from the gallery.

Aim for:

  • Clean background: flat lays or ghost-mannequin shots transform beautifully.

  • Front-facing, full view of the item.

  • Good lighting, true-to-life colour.

  • Avoid heavily stylised editorial shots at odd angles.

Not sure if your product is a good fit?

If you sell something not listed above, send us a message and we are happy to take a look.

A note on realism: try-on is a realistic preview — a confidence-builder, not a tailor's measurement. That's why Size Chart sits next to the Size option and Estimate my size sits above Add to cart (Starter+), independently of try-on: look answers “will it suit me?”, sizing answers “will it fit me?”.
