Human Body & Clothing Badge Badge Body Fastener Fig. 1. Badge-based interaction gestures are enabled by the body of the badge and the method of attaching the badge to the clothing. In this paper, we explore input with wearables that can be attached and detached at will from any of our regular clothes. These wearables do not cause any permanent effect on our clothing and are suitable to be worn anywhere, thus making them very similar to badges we wear. To explore this idea of non-permanent badge input, we studied various methods to fasten objects to our clothing and organise them in the form of a design space. We leverage this synthesis, along with literature and existing products to present possible interaction gestures these badge-based wearables can enable.
Fashion recommendation has witnessed a phenomenal growth of research, particularly in the domains of shop-the-look, contextaware outfit creation, personalizing outfit creation etc. Majority of the work in this area focuses on better understanding of the notion of complimentary relationship between lifestyle items. Quite recently, some works have realised that style plays a vital role in fashion, especially in the understanding of compatibility learning and outfit creation. In this paper, we would like to present the endto-end design of a methodology in which we aim to generate outfits guided by styles or themes using a novel style encoder network. We present an extensive analysis of different aspects of our method through various experiments. We also provide a demonstration api to showcase the ability of our work in generating outfits based on an anchor item and styles.
