W.ardro.be (http://w.ardro.be) is about giving people more inspiration about the clothes they already own. By creating a "virtual copy" of your existing wardrobe, you can easily mix and match and see which combinations that work best.
The inspiration came when I one morning felt that I had absolutely nothing to wear, although my wardrobe is quite large - I just didn't have the inspiration to use my clothes. And as I found out from Daniel Bergström recently, I'm not alone.
I struggled a bit too much with my tech to realize the vision in these 24 hours, and the online site is just an early user-interface demo (although there's actually a Rails back-end powering the Flash UI).
Here are the core features I envision:
- Let the system suggest an outfit based on colors and styles.
- Send an outfit to a friend and get feedback.
- Different levels of user-generated content: casual users can change colors and textures on existing clothes, hardcore users can make their own creations from scratch.
- See how the latest H&M collection would fit with your existing wardrobe (I think I'll save that for a later 24 hours event...).
I'm gonna keep building on this. Hope you like it!
