Tailored Fit is a fashion web application for shoppers. It generates personalized recommendations as they explore and sort through clothing. After placing first at Startup Weekend Pittsburgh, our team has continued to develop Tailored Fit and has now released a closed beta. We are currently a participant in AlphaLab, Pittsburgh’s Startup Accelerator.

Using a lean methodology, we are iterating upon our closed beta release by collecting more feedback, working on redesigns, and testing more prototypes.
