From croquis to studio shot: test a fashion concept in seconds

A croquis shows the idea. A photo shows whether it works. With Potoly you can go from one to the other in seconds, then keep testing until the design feels right.

Three simple steps

Sketch and upload
Automagic extraction
Shoot

Start with your sketch

This Fall/Winter modest luxury croquis has a plum hijab, a camel coat with embroidered cuffs, and a brocade maxi skirt. Upload it to Extract items and Potoly automagically finds every piece, with its color, fabric, pattern and details already filled in. No typing needed.

Pick a model and a pose, press shoot, and you see the look on a real-looking person under studio light.

Try a new version in seconds

What if the coat were navy? What if the hem had a pattern? Change one item and shoot again. Here the coat turns deep navy and gains a patterned brocade hem, while the rest of the look stays the same.

Side by side, it is easy to see which version feels stronger, without making a second sample.

Original camel coat version — Version A: camel coat

Navy coat with patterned hem version — Version B: navy coat, patterned hem

See it on a different customer

The same design can be cast on a different model. Here the outfit is worn without a hijab, so you can check how it works for a wider audience.

Why this matters

Every round of physical samples takes time and money. Testing ideas as images first could help you go into sampling with fewer open questions and a clearer favorite.

Describe each piece the way you would brief a pattern maker: color, fabric, fit, details.
Change one thing at a time so you can compare versions clearly.
Shoot the same look on several models before you decide.
