Need advice on my Fashion Startup


Hi - I'm building a Fashion Search Engine called FashionFeed (http://fashionfeed.app). It's main purpose is to filter by clothing models that look like you (same Ethnicity, Age, Height, Weight).

It's still a work in progress & I only have a few photos up. But can I receive your brutally honest feedback on the site please?

Thanks.

Two big points I see is 1) that normal people are not models, 2) peoples looks will vary widely based on their country of origin.

So I could see this working better with normal people and more fields that are not focused on country (ethnicity, skin color, body type, etc.)

I think Google is already doing something similar… https://www.wired.com/story/google-generative-ai-clothes-sho...

How do you plan to compete? What’s your value proposition? Etc…

What's the tech stack?

The value-prop isn't strong enough. Let's say you had it well populated -- and I want to buy that shirt -- you probably can't sell me that shirt, you might not know the brand, it might be out of stock, etc. What mechanism is getting me closer to looking like the guy in the picture -- is it just and ideaboard -- if it is I'll just go look on pinterest.
