Turning flat lays into on-model images

AI turns a flat lay into an on-model image by reading the garment's shape, print and colour from the overhead photo and rendering it worn by a generated model, keeping the garment's own details rather than inventing new ones.

What makes a good flat lay for AI

• The whole garment in frame, laid flat without folds hiding construction
• Even lighting with no strong shadows across the fabric
• True colour — shoot against a neutral background
• Prints and logos in focus and fully visible
• One garment per image

The steps

• Upload the flat lay
• Choose a model identity, or a brand preset trained on your own aesthetic
• Set demographics, body type and pose
• Generate, then review the automated quality check
• Export in your storefront's dimensions and background

Where it goes wrong

The common failures are garment drift (a collar, cuff or hem that does not match the source), print distortion across curves, and colour shift under the generated lighting. These are exactly the things an automated quality check should be looking for — Styls.ai checks garment accuracy, scale, colour and artefacts on every image before a person reviews it.

Size-inclusive and regional imagery

One flat lay can produce the same garment on different body types and on regionally appropriate models, which is impractical with a physical shoot. Check that a tool supports this before committing a catalogue to it.
