Salwar kameez mode

Create an AI salwar kameez photoshoot: upload the kameez, salwar, dupatta and sleeve separately so every part of the suit looks right, then add outfit styling.

Ask ChatGPTAsk Claude

Use Salwar Kameez Mode for a salwar kameez photoshoot, whether you sell suits or unstitched dress material. You upload each piece of the suit in its own slot: the top, the bottom, the dupatta and the sleeve. ApparelAI puts them together as one complete, styled suit on a model.

Why upload each piece

A single photo of a whole set folded together doesn't show which fabric belongs where. With one photo per piece, each part of the suit comes from your real fabric.

Upload slotWhat to photographRequired?
Top (Kameez)The main top design: the kameez or kurta fabricRequired
BottomThe salwar or pants designOptional
DupattaThe dupatta, spread out so its design and borders showOptional
SleeveThe sleeve design, if your set has separate sleeve fabricOptional

Unstitched dress material

This mode works for unstitched sets too. Photograph the top, bottom and dupatta as the flat fabric you stock, and the shoot shows them as a finished suit, worn by the model.

Keep one face across your catalog

Build a custom AI model once, choosing gender, ethnicity, age range, body type, hair and skin tone, and use it for every suit you shoot. When every listing shows the same face, your catalog reads as a brand. A different face each time reads as a reseller. See Choose a model.

Shoot many suits at once
