Petite Finds
AI Virtual Try-On Tools?
Are We Really Here??
Are we allowed to keep mentioning COVID? Because It feels like we can once again "blame" Covid for needing AI Virtual Try-On Tools. BUT I think it was pre-covid that I learned I hated the feeling of going into the store to try clothes on. The night before a potential shopping trip, I always feel hyped and motivated to find the next big things, but the day of? Nah. No longer want to get out of my car to just go see what I can find OR I will lazily just put stuff back because I no longer want to try stuff on.
And I can't blame COVID for my Petite Struggles... Jeans that bunch at the ankle, Blazers that swallow your shoulders,
“Petite” pieces that somehow… still aren’t petite. But you're telling me.. AI can help take away all that drama? I'm in. I wanna stay home and I don't actually wanna put stuff on. I should change this blog to LAZY Petite.. because I am one.
Despite the Laziness that wins me over often, I did it for you. I've tried the try-on things :)
Before we begin: Here are some tips I found through my own research that really helped me!
Start with your measurements : AI tools work best when you know your body proportions.
Use multiple tools together: visual search + try-on + stylist apps = more confident choices.
Create a style mood board: before shopping... helps refine the AI’s recommendations to your taste.

You guys.... You can literally Paste the product URL from almost any online store (Zara, ASOS, H&M, etc.) then you:
Upload your photo & See yourself wearing the item instantly!
I am still kinda in disbelief. Like it really can't be THAT easy can it? And also... do I want it to be that easy? I will never leave my house again, I will become even more reliant on Influencers to find the finds for me. The hunt is off?
YEP! Bring it on!
But okay, chillll (insert politically correct 'Karen-name') AI is not taking over... the goal is that it simply makes things easier for us. And by "us" I mean the ones that may be short, curvy, and more difficult to shop for.
Learn How to Ask AI for It:
Have you ever seen an outfit on Instagram or Pinterest and thought:
“I love that, but there’s no way it comes in petite.” or worse you just buy it anyway and your gut was right in the first place?
Visual search tools let you upload a photo and find similar items across different stores. Instead of scrolling endlessly, AI hunts down the closest matches.
For petites, this is gold.
You can ask for:
shorter inseams
cropped jackets that hit at the right spot
dresses that don’t need hemming
petite sections across retailers
It’s like having a personal shopper whose only mission is: find this...but make it fit!
Influencers want you to click around. They want you to find THEIR link that brings you to their items, and while I would be a hypocrite if I said I didn't want that for myself... I want you to find all the things without the lure of a trap. I want you to find the products without clicking through everything and everyone... becasue at the end of the day, it is what I want too!
