COVID-19 IMPACT


Customers Shifting to Virtual Dressing Room Tool amid the Pandemic Boosted Market Opportunity


In the early 2020s, this market witnessed a decline in its growth owing to the closure of retail shops, non-delivery of items, and imposed trade restrictions. Also, the supply chain and logistics faced a significant setback during the pandemic. However, global e-commerce sales surged as more consumers adopted digital and virtual methods of payments and other activities. For instance,



  • As per a Morgan Stanley report, e-commerce sales in retail rose from 15 percent in 2019 to 21 percent in 2021 on a global level.

  • Also, the e-commerce market is estimated to increase over the long term from USD 3.3 trillion to USD 5.4 trillion in 2026.


Companies across the world are reshaping their off-store retail business with governments implementing relaxations over imposed pandemic restrictions. For instance,



  • In October 2021, H&M launched a virtual dressing room in Germany to promote and showcase its new collection. H&M Germany collaborated with NeXR Technologies to implement the Fusion III body scanner. The partnership aided customers with NeXR’s AvatarCloud Fashion app and gave them a virtual try-on experience.


This factor is expected to boost the virtual fitting room market growth post-pandemic crisis.

Rise in the Number of Online Shoppers to Fuel the Growth of Virtual Try-on Software


App based body scanning technology has a transformative and influential impact on sizes of businesses. Businesses can use just two customer photos to collect body measurements remotely with the help of solutions such as Mobile Tailor. Similarly, the YourFit solution helps fashion e-commerce sizing issues and matches customers with their ideal fit. A photo-realistic try-on experience, powered by highly accurate body measuring technology, is made possible by this YourFit, which brings the fitting room online.


Around 71% of consumers shop more with brands that integrate Augmented Reality (AR) into the customer’s purchase journey. Magic mirrors are gaining popularity and becoming the new normal on shop floors, allowing customers digital visualization. There is a growing shift toward the adoption of mobile e-commerce, which is expected to expand the market share in the coming years.


VIRTUAL FITTING ROOM MARKET GROWTH FACTORS


Growing Adoption of Mobile Commerce to Augment the Demand for Virtual Fitting Room Tool


With consumer attention constantly centered on mobile devices, businesses, including fashion retailers are grabbing opportunities to reach a mass audience. Many online retailers have developed applications, which display their company products to consumers quickly and interactively. Retailers such as Shopify, Walmart, Amazon, and more provide their customers with app-based virtual dressing rooms to facilitate them with a virtual trial of outfits.


Virtual fitting apps on mobile are based on augmented reality and artificial intelligence. They provide customers with personalized avatars and 3D visualization to enhance their shopping experience. Thus, mobile-commerce augments the growth of virtual try-on software.


In addition, consumers turning to social platforms in search of guidance and support have increased their reliance on the internet. Influencers on platforms, such as TikTok, Snapchat, Pinterest, and Instagram, aid consumers in seeking advice and analyzing outfits through user-curated boards. By creating personal avatars on social media platforms, consumers can gain a virtual dressing experience. Thus, a growing shift toward adoption of mobile-commerce is expected to drive the market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Cost of Implementation of Virtual Try-on to Curb Market Growth


Virtual reality technology has been popular among retailers for over a decade. Retailers, such as ASOS, Macy’s, and Adidas, are implementing virtual fitting rooms on e-commerce platforms as well as in their stores. However, virtual dressing rooms would be an expensive investment for smaller companies.


There are various factors due to which virtual dressing room solutions are expensive, such as incorporating/applying augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality technology, creating 3D assets, purchasing hardware such as smart mirrors, and training staff on how to use the software. Further, without relevant experience working with AI, VR, and AR, the retailer might find it challenging to integrate the technology seamlessly. These factors are expected to hamper the market growth.


SEGMENTATION


By Type Analysis


Growing Adoption of App-based Body Scanners to Drive Service Demand


Based on type, the market is divided into in-store virtual mirrors, app-based body scanners, and sizing surveys backed by 3D body data.


App-based body scanner holds the largest revenue share and it is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Shoppers can scan their bodies using smartphones to find their perfect size and fitting match. Multiple luxury fashion brands provide this solution to attract a large number of customers. For instance, H&M has developed a body scanner through which H&M customers can create their own virtual avatar and it can be transferred to the AvatarCloud app to try-on correct clothing sizes virtually. Further, it provides a photorealistic try-on experience to each customer by generating an exclusive 3D avatar from a quick scan on a customer’s mobile device.


The in-store virtual mirror segment is anticipated to grow at a prominent CAGR during the forecast period, as global fashion brands, such as Ralph Lauren, Neiman Marcus, and Mango, allow shoppers to try-on products through their in-store virtual mirrors. According to a well-established brand Ralph Lauren, its virtual mirrors have 90% interaction rate. This huge amount of data from its online fitting room software helps to enhance its retail strategy and improve business performance. These factors are likely to drive market growth.

Extensive Rise in the Use of Virtual Try-on Tool in Apparel Sector to Fuel Market Growth


Based on application, the market is categorized into apparel, eyewear, cosmetic & beauty products, jewelry & watches, and others (footwear).


Apparel segment holds the largest market share owing to the significant use of virtual try-on software in the clothing industry.

For instance, in September 2022, Walmart launched a new virtual try-on to improve the customer experience in the U.S. by acquiring Zeekit, a virtual try-on start-up company.


The eyewear segment is likely to gain significant growth during the forecast period as virtual dressing room solution is significantly used in the eyewear industry. It enables the user a 360-degree view of him/herself in the selected frames virtually, due to which this solution is expected to become popular among customers. For instance, Dubai-based specsaddict.com is giving an option for shoppers to try glasses and sunglasses in the UAE by using a virtual mirror tool before buying the item. The shoppers can try-on brands, including Christian Dior, Ray-Ban, and others by using their mobile device.


By End-use Analysis


Significant Rise in Online Shopping Among Customers Propels Market Growth

The virtual/e-commerce stores segment is expected to gain maximum revenue share in the market as well as it is anticipated to grow at a highest CAGR during the forecast period, owing to an extensively growing customer base. Along with digital transformation, many people across the globe prefer online shopping. Owing to this, multiple e-commerce websites have adopted virtual dressing room solutions that enable shoppers to find out perfect size and fitting match by virtually trying the product. For instance, according to NielsenIQ, 66% of customers say that Augmented Reality (AR) technology helps them to trust the quality of the item they are browsing.


Further, the virtual fitting room solution is prominently used in brick-and-mortar stores, as it allows users to buy items virtually with the swipe gesture of their hands.

In this, virtual store customers will be able to navigate themselves around the store and they can purchase any product by selecting digital icons.
