From putting on digital make-up in Google Meet calls, wearing shoes digitally, and virtually trying on dresses, Google has tried different things to make its AI more useful. It also launched an experimental app called Doppl to try virtual clothes on an animated version of yourself.
In its latest attempt, Google is turning the Google Photos app into an AI-powered wardrobe where all the clothes you wear can live in their digital form. It will analyze your past photos to figure out what you wear and create a digital collection in the app.
You'll be able to view the digital versions of your clothes together or filter them by categories, such as jewelry, tops, or bottoms. You can mix and match items to create different outfits, share them with your friends, or save them to a digital moodboard.

You can keep separate moodboards for occasions like summer weddings, international vacations, or daily work outfits. Just like the virtual try-on feature, Google Photos lets you select individual pieces to create an outfit and use "Try it on" for a preview. For instance, you can choose from jackets, jeans, sunglasses, shoes, hats, and more, depending on what it detects in your library.
"Getting dressed is about to get easier, no matter how full your closet is. To help streamline your “nothing to wear” mornings — and evenings and vacations — a new Google Photos feature will soon catalog the clothes you're wearing in photos and create a digital closet that puts your wardrobe at your fingertips," Google said in a blog post explaining the feature.
The search giant added that the wardrobe feature in Google Photos will start rolling out this summer; it will first arrive on Android devices, then on iOS. It will be accessible via the Collections tab in the Google Photos app. Since generative AI is involved, it remains to be seen how the feature's privacy aspect will be considered once it goes live.
