An AI-powered personal color analysis and outfit styling app. Upload a selfie to get your seasonal color palette (Warm Spring, Cool Summer, Deep Autumn, Soft Winter), then search for or upload outfits and see them virtually tried on โ€” all powered by YouCam's Skin AI and Clothes Virtual Try-On APIs combined with Gemini for color reasoning and Q&A. Built for the YouCam API Skin AI & Apparel VTO Hackathon.
