What Photos Work Best With OutfitGen?

Photos that give the model useful context

• Use an in-focus photo with natural detail in the face, hair, hands, and clothing edges.
• Choose even lighting without extreme shadows, blown highlights, or a strong colored cast.
• Show the full area affected by the edit. A full outfit change works better when the torso, arms, waist, and legs are visible.
• Leave some space around the subject so a new garment or pose is not cut off by the frame.
• Prefer a simple background and one main subject when preservation matters.

Common source problems

Screenshots, social media downloads, and heavily compressed images can hide the texture and boundaries the model needs. Motion blur, beauty filters, dramatic color grading, and very small faces add uncertainty. A low-quality source cannot reliably become a precise high-quality edit just because the output dimensions are larger.

Occlusion is another major constraint. Crossed arms can hide a shirt, long hair can cover a collar, a bag can conceal a jacket, and furniture can block the lower body. The model may invent hidden construction, which makes exact garment matching less predictable.

Match the crop to the edit

For a headshot, a chest-up portrait usually gives the face more usable detail than a distant full-body image. For an outfit swap, keep the clothing and body in frame. For a group image, crop around one person when possible. The crop should remove irrelevant complexity without cutting off context the new edit needs.

Use the cleanest original file rather than a copy that has been repeatedly saved. Then write a focused prompt that describes the main change and names what should remain the same. If the first result is weak, improve the source or simplify the request before spending several credits on nearly identical retries.
