Product to Model

Create on-model visuals from product photos. With Product to Model, upload a clothing or accessory photo and generate an image of that product on a model.

What is Product to Model?

Product to Model lets you:

  • Take a flat-lay, ghost mannequin, or hanger photo
  • Automatically apply that garment onto a generated model image
  • Generate on-model visuals suitable for ecommerce
  • Preserve details, texture, color, and fit

Use it for ecommerce listings, social images, and lookbooks.

When to Use

You have a standalone, wearable product photo and you want to show the item on an AI fashion model.

Other Options
  • If you need to place a product onto a specific existing model photo, use Try-On.
  • If your source already shows a person or mannequin and you want to change the person while keeping the product unchanged, use Model Swap.
  • If you want a clean catalog packshot of the product instead of an on-model image, use Packshot.

How to Use It

Start transforming your products into on-model visuals with these simple steps:

Upload Your Product Images

Upload a clear image of your product. You can upload up to three product images per generation to combine multiple items in a single look (for example, a top, bottom, and accessory).

To add more products, click Add another image after uploading the first one. You can reorder or remove items before generating.

After uploading, click the Edit icon on any image to crop, rotate, or refine it before generating. See Built-in Image Editor for details.

Add Optional Guidance

Run with or without a prompt. To guide the result, you can add:

  • Text Prompt to describe the person, pose, styling, background, or lighting
  • Image Prompt to guide pose, environment, and lighting
  • Background Reference to set the scene
  • Face Reference to match identity

See Parameters for more details.

Optional guidance inputs and when to use them

Select Ratio & Resolution

Select the ratio that fits your website layout, catalog, or social platform. Common options are 1:1 square, 2:3 or 3:4 for fashion catalogs.

For resolution, pick the level that matches your use case. Bear in mind that the resolution you pick can affect generation credit cost.

Generate the Image

Click Run to generate your image. You’ll see your garment or accessory displayed on the model.

Review and Adjust

Examine the result. You can run the generation again for a different option or tweak your text prompt to switch up the pose or other composition specifics.

Prepare for Export or Continue Editing

Prepare your result for export or continue refining the image in Edit.

  • Download, upscale, or use Export for Web in Gallery
  • Adjust pose or background with Edit
  • Create a short video from this image with Image to Video

Parameters

Only the product image is required. Other inputs are optional and can be combined.

ParameterDescription
Product imageClear flat-lay, ghost mannequin, or on-hanger photo of a wearable product. Upload up to 3 product images per generation to combine multiple items in one look.
Number of imagesGenerate 1–4 outputs in one run. Results follow the same prompt and appear as a single scrollable entry in Gallery. Credit use scales with the count.
Text promptDescribe model attributes, pose, background, lighting, and camera style. If you don't provide a text prompt, the system will create a fitting model and scene based on the product image.
Image prompt"A picture is worth a thousand words" - use an example image to guide generation instead of or in addition to text. The system will only take inspiration and won't copy the exact details from the image.
Background referenceBackground image used as the backdrop for generation. Ensures location consistency across campaigns. Upload your own image or pick from the Starter Backgrounds gallery. If a person appears in the background image, they will be ignored and only the background will be used.
Face referenceFace photo to guide identity. When provided, the system refines identity to match the reference while keeping product fidelity. Pick from the Starter Faces gallery or, on the Agency plan, upload your own. See the Face Reference guide for the full feature breakdown.
Aspect ratioChoose the output ratio. If you don’t choose one, the result inherits the ratio from the reference image you supplied (Background reference or Image prompt; otherwise Product image). Supported: 1:1, 3:4, 4:3, 9:16, 16:9, 2:3, 3:2, 4:5, 5:4.
ResolutionAuto (default), 1K, 2K, 4K. Auto matches output to your input image resolution. See Resolution & Generation Mode.
Generation ModeAuto (default), Fast, Balanced, Quality. Auto selects the optimal mode for your input. See Resolution & Generation Mode.

Best Practices

  • Use clear images where the entire garment or accessory is visible, with even lighting and minimal background clutter.
  • Product photos should match or exceed the chosen resolution setting (for example, use 1K images for 1K output, 4K for 4K).
  • Provide product photos taken from a clean, top-down angle (flat lay style). Avoid tilted or uneven shots, such as garments photographed on the floor from a standing angle.
  • Avoid shadows, wrinkles, or cropped edges in product images.
  • Match the model’s pose to the garment type. Front-facing tops work best with front-facing models, for instance.

The better your inputs, the more natural and photorealistic your results will be.

What’s Supported

  • Upload up to 3 separate product images per generation. You can also include multiple products in a single image, but separate images give the best results for each item.
  • Works with flat-lay, ghost mannequin, and on-hanger product photos
  • Compatible with all major wearable categories, including garments and accessories such as hats, shoes, bags, belts, and eyewear
  • Supports vertical, square, and widescreen output formats

Troubleshooting

If your output doesn’t look quite right:

  • Difficulty in generating full-body images → Add details for footwear and hair appearance in the text prompt.

Minor adjustments often improve results dramatically.
