About ASOS

Born in London in 2000, ASOS has grown into one of the most influential online fashion and beauty destinations in the world. With a catalog of over 85,000 products, they offer everything from wardrobe essentials to trend-driven pieces.

What sets ASOS apart is its focus on inclusivity and innovation. From petite to plus-size, ASOS makes fashion feel accessible and personal for everyone. Their customer-first mindset, paired with a bold approach to digital retail, keeps them ahead of the curve—and always evolving.

This forward-thinking DNA is exactly what brought them to AI Photoshoot.

Background

When ASOS planned to launch in a new market, they needed their catalog ready fast. But with traditional shoots taking 10–15 days, the pace wasn’t quick enough for today’s ecommerce world.

Challenges

The old way of doing things—model casting, studio setups, makeup teams, editing—was slow, rigid, and resource-heavy. It didn’t match the speed, inclusivity, and scale ASOS needed to launch.

They weren’t just looking for images. They needed a smarter, leaner way to bring their catalog to life—without the bottlenecks.

Why the old way didn’t work:

The 2-day timeline for ASOS

1. Turnaround in 2 days

With Fynd AI Photoshoot, ASOS delivered the full catalog in just 2 days—well ahead of the 10-day onboarding deadline, giving ASOS extra room to prep and launch early.

2. Visual consistency across all images

With complete control over facial features and proportions, we ensured every image aligned with ASOS’s brand identity—maintaining consistency across poses, products, and model avatars.

3. A wide range of body types and sizes

Using our AI model library, we generated avatars across different body types and sizes, enabling inclusive representation that matched ASOS’s customer profiles.

4. Every stitch, perfectly recreated

Garments were recreated with a high level of detail—from fabric textures to prints and folds. Each image reflected the original design with accuracy, delivering a polished, studio-like finish without relying on manual touch-ups.

5. Multiple angles and AI-generated videos

Each SKU was rendered in multiple angles and poses, giving shoppers a complete view of the product. We also introduced AI-generated videos to simulate garment movement—creating a richer, more engaging product experience.

6. Quality that’s ready for launch

All assets were reviewed by our internal quality team to ensure consistency, brand alignment, and readiness for instant deployment—keeping everything marketplace-compliant from day one.
