Pureple Outfit Planner 4+

This app was recommended to me by a friend who is into fashion so I was SUPER excited. Once I added my entire wardrobe of shirts, pants, accessories, shoes, etc., I was happy for that to be over with. To my disappointment, the app took random pieces of clothing from the categories I chose. For example, one outfit I was given was a plaid shirt, sweatpants, heels, and a scarf. These do not go together at all (but it rly depends on the person’s perspective). I thought this app would give you some amazing stylish outfits but none of it goes together and if it does it’s something I usually wear. Also, having to input all the info by hand is a pain. When you do put the info in, it doesn’t do anything but sort for you. I wish that when it suggested outfits we could check off specific things (such as I want a black shirt with a rating of 3 stars for a formal party) and, maybe, have an actual person looking at the clothes to give you an outfit. Maybe a survey when creating your account would give the creators an idea of what you are like and the kind of outfits you wear. I also see you mostly just do big fixes w/ your updates. When updating, I would suggest bringing something new every other update (even if it is small).I still love the app but it needs improvement if a 5 Star is wanted from me (even tho many people have probably given a 5 star rating and mine doesn’t rly matter).

First off, this app really helped me organize fits and plan on what clothes I wanted to buy. I no longer impulsively buy once I had my whole closet with me!
Some suggestions that I have are that can we could have more options with who helps customize our clothes? Often I feel disappointed with most people who make fits for me because they either seem basic or aren’t my taste. It would be nice if others could see how a person matches their clothes so they could have an idea of what trend they like. There could also be a checklist to fill out before asking for a fit, like “What type of fashion do you prefer? Etc.” and then it could cater to whatever community that matches with you. Of course, it’s still a good idea to have a range of all communities for a chance to get more diverse fits, but I think that would only work well if more people experimented instead of going for the safe t shirt-Jeans-vans combo.
Another suggestion I have is that if there could be a warning before submitting an outfit for someone. Sometimes either me or someone will miss the filter button, and it’s a bit annoying.
But other than that, I really love this app. It has helped me in so many ways and has qualities that Pinterest can’t do.

If you have style anxiety then this is the app for you. I have been using the app since 2016 when I needed to plan outfits for a business professional workplace... Before using this app, I would wing it each morning only to find out later how bad my colors/patterns/styles clashed. Once I started using Pureple, I was not only better dressed but better organized in general: one dirty article of clothing would stop me from wearing an entire outfit, so I got on a consistent laundry schedule and stopped leaving clothes everywhere.

Admittedly it does take a while to snap photos of every item in your closet and then to categorize but it is absolutely 100% worth the time. Colors, sizes, and seasons tags come in handy when trying to figure out what you wear a lot of (or have too much of and should perhaps pair down). I added custom tags to many of the features, including materials so I could remind myself how items should be washed (such as cold, like-colors, hot, dry clean only, etc.) in case any of my clothing tags fade and can’t be read. LOVE the customizable fields/tags!

I was ready to give the “update” a one-star review, but the developers listened and brought back the old version. THANK YOU! The notes feature is incredibly helpful as well and I’m so glad it’s back.
