Fashion App? Might be a new title for some of the people but it's one of the great ideas for the startups. Nowadays, a huge number of people globally are using mobile phones for communication. This presents a great opportunity for businesses to earn more profits by reaching out to more customers and selling their products to them. By getting developed an appealing, high quality and functional app as their specific needs, businesses can better market their products among their customers, communicate, connect with them, and win their loyalty.

Like businesses belonging to other industries, businesses associated with the fashion industry can also gain from the development of a mobile app. Here are some exciting mobile app ideas for fashion-centric businesses for effectively engaging their customers and enhancing their profitability.

According to the founder of Parisian haute couture Coco Chanel, “Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening”. With the development of high technologies, fashion has appeared in the global network as well as it is settled down in the portable devices of every modern fashionista. And the question is how we can make use of these technological advantages to spread our fashion ideas and make an impact on the fashion industry.

Having analyzed the most popular fashion apps we have pointed out the most interesting ideas of how we can use mobile applications putting fashion to the fingers of a fashionable dresser.

Some of the top Fashion Apps in market are listed below

FASTAF
The recently launched app, as its name clearly suggests, has partnered with a slew of the biggest companies and up-and-coming labels in the fashion, beauty, food, health, and tech realms—including Nike, Byredo, Copper Cow Coffee, Oribe, Billie, Aesop, and Sonos—to ensure that products get delivered in two hours or less (yes, you're reading that correctly) in the metropolises of New York and Los Angeles.

DREST
Drest, founded by former Porter editor Lucy Yeomans, is like the Dollz computer games you played when you were a kid, just all grown up. You can dress your own photo-realistic avatar, and then buy the pieces directly via Farfetch. Talk about the best of both worlds. A bunch of your favorite luxury fashion brands—Burberry, Stella McCartney, Gucci, Bottega Veneta—have signed on, helping to make your dream wardrobe a (virtual) reality.

NATE
Nate allows you to save products on an in-app list that it can share on its social media channels. Moreover, there is a feature that enables you to send a fellow Nate user a gift simply by inputting their phone number.

LATITUDE
Founded by former fashion editor Anne Slowey and stylist Anne Christensen, the new app takes out the guesswork of what to wear in certain climates. It curates a selection of ensembles, taking into account the trends of the moment, based on the weather on a given day.

DEPOP
A hit with Gen Zers, Depop started out as a British social network and turned into a global marketplace, which allows users to buy and sell clothing and accessories. From vintage stores to burgeoning labels, the app is filled with unique finds.

OBJECT LIMITED
One of the best-kept secondhand shopping secrets, it features vintage sellers, cool tastemakers, and creatives from all over. Use the app to find your next pair of dreamy vintage boots, '70s trousers, or designer trench. Good deals are aplenty, and the curation is cute and vintage heavy.

WARDROBE
The app is available only in New York City, with the company offering free rentals to women interviewing for new gigs (recently unemployed, upcoming graduates, those advancing their careers, etc.).

POSE
Pose provides your daily weather forecast, while also offering outfit inspiration based on what the sky is doing that day. To further filter your search, you can browse outfit pictures based on the occasion you're dressing for: dinner party, bridal shower, a day at the office, you get the picture.

WISHI
Wishi was launched by Karla Welch, who styles Megan Rapinoe, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Elisabeth Moss, so you're sure to get the celebrity treatment.

SHEIN
SHEIN is an online marketplace for fashion stuff. Some of the app’s features include flash sales, 24/7 customer support, and free shipping with orders over $49. It’s a solid overall experience with a lot of different clothes, styles, and outfits to choose from. The company also seems to have its customer service on point for pickier shoppers.

HUSH
Hush is an online marketplace with a focus on beauty products. Its inventory includes various types of makeup, nail polish, skincare products, and various tools like brushes. The app works like most store apps. You can browse the inventory, add stuff to wish lists, get notifications about sales, and order stuff directly from the app.

GRAILED
Its a curated peer-to-peer marketplace for new and lightly worn luxury menswear. Discover fire pieces at affordable prices. Easily sell your clothing to other fashion enthusiasts and fund your next Grail.

You can make your fashion application useful you may add several valuable features into the app, e.g., provide weather information telling people what type of clothes it is better to wear today. A person will be grateful to you for the opportunity to know if the weather is warm enough to wear a cool dress.

A lot of people incubate so many creative ideas about how to make their own clothing or accessories. Let us afford them to fulfill their dreams in reality by developing a special designer application. It may contain some useful tips or advice about dress designing or color combinations and allow them to create concepts of their own clothing articles.

The possibility to create an online wardrobe may become one of the most useful options for those who want to know exactly what pieces of clothes they already own and what things they need to buy. Moreover, it can help to prepare a suitcase for a journey and not to forget about useful articles.

A palm-friendly shopping guide is the best thing to coordinate one’s purchases. True shopaholics will definitely appreciate such a convenient application that gives them a possibility to compare prices in different shops, make online orders, search for deals or be aware of all the new arrivals of their favorite brands.

The opportunity to create your own shopping lists is another advantage as your fashion app may be marked out among others. With the help of shopping lists, consumers may add items they wish to purchase or browse the latest trends and post their favorite pictures of clothes to social media platforms such as Facebook or Twitter to share their preferences with others.

The application that allows making fashion reviews will give the opportunity to view the latest fashion shows all over the world, to know more information about top designers and fashion houses, and to see what is trending in Paris, Milan, New York, or Los Angeles.

With the help of mobile applications, it is possible to place fashion at the fingertips of your clients. By developing a fashion app for your business, you may create a huge online superstore that can offer not only clothes for sale but a great number of useful services that will help raise additional revenues. Everything that you need is to expand your creative and innovative approach for developing an application that will be in fashion and demand.

Approximate cost to build a Fashion app like FastAF, Dest, Nate, Latitude, Depop, Shein, Wardrobe, Grailed, Pose

The cost of developing the Fashion App or Clothing App may range between $10,000 and $25,000 depending on the features and business goals. It is obvious that the final price can vary depending on the location of the development team. Let us say for example if you hire a company situated in Australia or Western Europe, then the cost of development may rise to thrice of the above range.
