Cladwell: Outfit Planner

I use this app to organize my wardrobe. I have been able to use the data to pare down my closet, but I have more outfits! Sometimes I add an item from a website before I buy it, just to see if I have items to wear with it. I use the chat to help me pack for trips and make outfits for special occasions. I’m enjoying playing with it, and I think I am dressing better, too.

Cladwell creates ridiculous outfit suggestions, and the algorithm refuses to learn. Nothing you tell the app changes the nonsense it produces. What a waste of money!

Because of some recent body changes, and changes in my job, I needed to be more mindful of what I wore, and how I organized what I had and actually wore/wear. I downloaded the app to help me with that. In theory, it’s a great idea, but it really needs some work. First, the categories might be great for warm weather/warm climates, but don’t really work for those of us that live in frigid temps a lot of the year. I would like to be able to log that I wear leggings under a dress, for example. Right now, they’re in the same category, and you can only choose one. The outfit suggestions are sometimes completely nonsensical. A leather jacket with an open front blazer and no pants? An outfit with TWO blazers? That doesn’t work. Also, it would be nice for the app to suggest accessories—yes, I tried asking the AI function to help with that and got some suggestions like, “you might wear some earrings with this outfit!” Well….yeah…I’d thought of that myself, funnily enough. I’d also like to be able to order pieces myself, rather than have them go in as they’re uploaded. Sometimes, after a few days/weeks, I’ll notice that I’m not wearing a particular group or category of clothing, and I’d like to be able to move them around so they make logical sense to me. Finally, the website should have more functionality. It’s easier, for example, to build an outfit where I can see details—the app makes the colors look so similar the I can’t tell for example between navy blue pants and black pants. Finally, I think categories should be customizable. Again, living in a very cold climate, I need multiple layers, and I’d like to be able to categorize pieces based upon layer, and it works for me—not as AI thinks it should work.
