Read full description

Originally built during WWDC 2026 week, Vestra Mirror demonstrates virtual try-on AI running entirely on iPhone and iPad. As a proof of capability, the app combines on-device machine learning, image processing, and a native SwiftUI interface. Choose a person photo and a garment image to generate an outfit preview, with all processing performed locally. Capabilities include: • Offline virtual try-on for tops, bottoms, and full outfits. • Automatic subject isolation and background processing. • Optional high-resolution image enhancement. • A saved-look gallery with sharing and reuse. Vestra Mirror is an experimental showcase of local AI and native app development. It is intended to demonstrate technical possibilities; generated previews may contain visual imperfections.
