What was Polyvore?
Polyvore was a popular fashion and lifestyle platform that allowed users to create and share digital mood boards featuring clothing, accessories, and home decor. Launched in 2007, it became a go-to destination for style inspiration, creative expression, and social shopping before being acquired and shut down in 2018.
What made Polyvore unique?
What made Polyvore unique was its powerful drag-and-drop editor that let users mix and match products from across the web into stylish collages. This seamless blend of creativity, community, and commerce helped it stand out as a pioneering force in user-generated fashion content.
Best Polyvore alternatives
1. Fits
Fits launched in 2023 and since then has become the go-to Polyvore alternative. Like the original, you can create outfit collages. The app removes the background of images or you can select from their community database. t taps into the same social network aspect of Polyvore: You can share outfits with the community and discover fits from other users. Besides that, we also love Fits for its contemporary AI features. The app can transform your flat lay clothing images to professional packshots to make more beautiful collages. You can also get outfit suggestions from an AI and virtually try on looks for a more realistic idea of how an outfit might work for you. The only thing really missing from the OG Polyvore are contests, but it looks like something similar might be coming to the app soon.
Features
- Public library of clothes
- Outfit maker for collages
- Social network: connect with friends, get likes, comments & style outfits together
- Digital wardrobe with planner and stats
- AI styling features: Outfit suggestions, virtual try on & image enhancements.
2. Whering
Whering is another mobile app that features both a digital wardrobe and a community of fashion enthusiasts to share ideas and inspiration. The app has been around for a few years and is entirely free to use. Besides creating outfits, you also get outfit stats, an organization system for your clothes and automatic background removal from clothing images. It’s a good app to get started, however it doesn’t use AI for outfit suggestions, better image enhancements and styling tips.
Features
- Social network: connect with friends and post outfits, style submissions to dress together
- Digital wardrobe with planner and stats
- Outfit maker for collages
3. Shoplook
This web and mobile app is another great Polyvore alternative – it not only has the retro vibe but also connects clothes to shops so you can directly shop looks like on the original. Shoplook also has challenges similar to Polyvore’s contest that let you style for certain occasion and compete with other users.
Features
- Web and mobile app to make collages
- Social community & challenges

4. Combyne
Combyne was one of the first mobile Polyvore clones and still until today has a decent amount of people using it. You can use it for free to make outfits either by swiping clothes or arranging them on a collage like Polyvore’s sets. The outfit feed shows clothes from other users. There are also contests to participate in. However, Combyne seems to not be that actively maintained or developed anymore as the developers behind it have moved on to another project about personal styling.
Features

- Outfit feed
- Public library of clothes, hair styles and accessories
- Contests to style for specific themes
5. Acloset
Acloset is a sleek, AI-powered wardrobe app that offers much more than just outfit collages. It automatically removes image backgrounds, sorts your clothes, and gives outfit recommendations based on your preferences and weather. What makes Acloset stand out is its deep wardrobe analytics: you can track your most worn items, cost-per-wear, and even get suggestions for how to build a more sustainable wardrobe. The app leans more toward functionality and personal wardrobe management, but it's still a solid option for creative outfit-making.

7. Stylebook
Stylebook is one of the OG wardrobe apps and still holds up today for closet organization and styling. It’s not focused on social sharing or collages but rather on building a detailed, digital version of your real-life closet. You can create outfits, plan packing lists, and schedule your looks in a calendar. While not a Polyvore in the creative collage sense, it’s a powerful tool for outfit planning if that’s your main goal.
Features

8. Canva
Though not made for fashion specifically, Canva is a surprisingly good option for Polyvore-style collage creation. With its drag-and-drop interface, massive library of templates, and photo editing tools, you can build fashion moodboards, aesthetic sets, or style guides. You’ll need to upload your clothing items manually (and remove backgrounds yourself unless you’re a Pro user), but it’s great for total creative freedom.

The main highlight of Shuffles is that you can have animated mood boards with videos, animations and animated gifs.

There's also a community aspect if you want to explore other users’ outfits for inspiration.
