Use cases

A size chart, written with the listing

Measurements by size in the unit your market reads, generated alongside the photography rather than typed later.

Answer first

Where does the size chart come from?

It is generated alongside the photography, from the same reading of the garment, with measurements by size in the unit your market reads. It arrives with the listing rather than being typed in afterwards, which is the reason so many listings do not have one.

Fit is why things come back

Most apparel returns are fit. A listing without measurements asks the shopper to guess, and the guess arrives back at your warehouse.

Built for

Who this is for

Brands with high return rates

Most apparel returns are fit, and a listing without measurements asks the shopper to guess.

Marketplace sellers

A missing size chart is a visible gap on a listing that is being ranked.

Exporters

Buyers work in measurements, and in their own units.

Made to order labels

The chart has to exist before the garment does.

Why this rather than a shoot

It comes with the set

One job, not a spreadsheet somebody promises to fill in later.

Your market's units

Inches or centimetres, per market, rather than a conversion the shopper has to do.

By size, not one number

Measurements across the run, which is what a shopper is actually comparing against.

Editable

It is a starting chart from the garment as read, and your own measured spec should always win.

The numbers

The arithmetic

What a season of catalogue photography actually takes, either way.

The cost that hurts is rarely the invoice. It is the pieces that never get photographed, because a shoot has a fixed capacity and your catalogue does not.

How it runs

  1. 01

    Send one photograph

    A phone shot on your studio floor, a flat lay, or a link. No lighting, no model, no booking.

  2. 02

    Choose the shoot

    Twelve locations, thirty-nine models across six segments, three resolutions. Or describe a room of your own.

  3. 03

    It generates

    Four or five frames chained to each other, so the model, the room and the light hold across the set.

  4. 04

    Take the listing

    Frames, copy, size chart, costed price and marketplace crops, ready to upload.

Questions

Are the measurements exact?
They are derived from the garment as read and are a starting point. Where you have measured the sample, use your numbers.
Which units?
The unit your market reads, set per listing.
Does it cover the whole size run?
Yes, by size rather than a single set of figures.
Can I edit it?
Yes. It is text in the listing like everything else.
