Social validation for fashion purchases
This post highlights the strong consumer need for social validation and peer feedback before making fashion purchases. This behavior is ripe for integration into e-commerce platforms or dedicated social shopping apps. Businesses could create AI-powered style advisors that incorporate community feedback, or platforms that facilitate real-time peer reviews of outfits from stores, blurring the lines between online social interaction and in-store shopping. This taps into the desire for confidence and community input in personal style choices.

What do you guys think of this two piece outfit?
Posted by u/ElenaKittenXO•08/01/2025
Tried on this two piece outfit at the store today, I’m thinking about going back and getting it. Would love feedback if it’s worth going back or not, thank you💙

It is a cute idea but I wish it only had one slit. Two is a bit weird.

Cute!!

I am just not a fan of the split front look.
Great shoes though! ):
u/hokiegirl759397
Definitely a pass. It has too many slits. This would be better if it only had 1 side slit that came to the knee. That would look more appropriate. I agree with another person, it's too long.

It looks good on you.

It’s giving nothing. For a sheer set I’d expect more oomph. Double slit is trying to be hot but all I can see is that middle part flapping around awkwardly as you walk down the street. Looks

Wow 😮

Like the color, the print, your legs, shoes. As others mentioned, dragging on the floor is a no-go, double leg slits looks good but is impractical?

Two slits is one too many
u/Klutzy_Landscape906
I don't know about the double slits... One side is fine. Both is a little strange to me. The top is nice though

Yeah, at first I was thinking oh that's hella cute but upn closer inspection it's far too sheer with virtually no slipand that is a crotch shot waiting to happen. Like not even stairs are sa

Ok I just zoomed in and see that the skirt is also see-through? I would definitely give it a pass. There are some looks where transparent works, but not on that, especially all the way up. Wi

Standing up straight it looks good, but once you start walking those two slits are gonna be really annoying. Functionally I just don't see it working as a full outfit.
The top looks great if
