The global Virtual Fitting Room market size is expected to be worth around US$ 25.43 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Vision Research Reports.
The global Virtual Fitting Room market size was valued at US$ 2.73 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 25.8% during forecast period 2021 to 2030.
Growth Factors
The prevalence of high-tech simulations to mimic face-to-face buying behavior with the help of advanced 3D technologies is expected to drive the market. Furthermore, the intervention of digital transformation technologies, such as Augmented Reality (AR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), is projected to create enormous opportunities for virtual fitting rooms over the forecast period.
The virtual try-on technology is significantly beneficial for retailers and is gaining popularity amongst consumers in recent times. Online merchandising witnesses a large number of returns/exchanges majorly because of the customer’s dissatisfaction regarding inappropriate fits and sizes. The virtual fitting room technology has been efficiently assisting consumers in trying and rejecting the products before placing an order, thereby converting one-time buyers into repeat customers.
Furthermore, companies are coming up with upgrades that can provide tactile, fabric, or texture sense for consumers purchasing via e-commerce websites to reduce return rates and build brand loyalty. The customer data collected through an interactive mirror is used to understand customer preferences and improvise strategies aimed at boosting sales. This is a breakthrough in the retail industry to leverage purchase data for designing future business strategies.
The COVID-19 pandemic has compelled governments worldwide to enforce regulations for temporarily closing brick and mortar stores, which indirectly boosted sales on e-commerce websites. With retail sales observing a dip in the past few months, buyers have now swiftly shifted to e-commerce websites. This creates significant opportunities for virtual fitting room solution providers to capture a more extensive customer base.
Report Highlights
The software segment accounted for the largest revenue share of over 45.0% in 2020 and is expected to maintain its lead in the market from 2021 to 2028. The segment is also expected to register an impressive growth rate over the forecast period. Software is the core of the virtual dressing room technology and market participants aim to attract their clients through high-tech innovations. With the help of advanced fitting room technology, retailers have witnessed a notable spike in their revenues, substantiating the increasing need for personalized “try-before-you-buy” software.

The services segment accounted for a significant share in 2020. The segment is further divided into installation, support & maintenance, and consulting. The consulting segment is expected to register the highest CAGR over the forecast period. Market participants emphasize delivering consulting services that ensure the effective operation of their complex offerings. Since the technology is still in the early stages of development, solution providers are offering 24*7 consultation services to assist clients in the effective utilization of the software for their retail businesses.
The virtual store segment held the largest revenue share of over 50.0% in 2020 and is expected to register the fastest CAGR over the forecast period. The e-commerce sector has gradually established itself as one of the most prominent players in the global economic landscape and is expected to overtake the brick-and-mortar shopping model for some products, in terms of sales, in the near future. Users are attracted to the essence of e-commerce websites owing to the wide portfolios, hassle-free purchases, and product comparison in a few clicks. However, the inability to appropriately visualize the desired product is a major drawback of the online purchasing model, resulting in high return rates and customer dissatisfaction. The virtual fitting room technology successfully assists users in making better purchasing decisions and has become one of the leading revenue-generating platforms for online retailers.
The easiest way to attract customers toward online sales is to cater to their personalized needs and improve the quality of their shopping experiences. The major concern of customers while shopping online has always been improper fitting of apparel, which is a key challenge affecting sales. Retailers are also making the best use of chronological interactions through effective navigation structure, content, and graphic styles of the websites or applications that could influence the users' purchase decisions. The utilization of state-of-the-art virtual dressing room software with multiple solutions for reinforcing users' purchasing intentions is expected to create enormous opportunities for the technology in the near future.
Physical stores are expected to significantly deploy virtual fitting room technology to boost their sales. The availability of advanced interactive screens, smart mirrors, and multi-sensor body scanners has increased the applications of the technology in physical stores. Furthermore, various attributes such as self-service and selection of full outfits based on the customer's desired brands are factors contributing to the earnings from physical stores.
The apparel application segment accounted for the largest revenue share of close to 40.0% in 2020 and is projected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. Additionally, the rising deployment of VR and AR to offer an immersive experience is expected to create growth opportunities for this segment. Apparel sales are one of the highest-grossing for both brick and mortar and online purchasing modes. However, the return/exchange rates are also the highest when it comes to buying clothes with improper fits.
Not all consumers have a body structure that matches standard fits. Virtual dressing room technologies help overcome this challenge and enhance the customer’s shopping experience by assisting retailers in delivering clothes with the right fit. Online apparel retailers are deploying fitting room solutions with artificial intelligence to recommend the customer sizes, designs, and styles based on their past searches and purchases. Physical apparel stores and independent fashion houses are making use of the technology to strengthen their brand image.
The beauty and cosmetic application segment is expected to register the highest growth rate over the forecast period. The rising popularity of e-marketplace is encouraging famous beauty and cosmetic brands to shift to online product deliveries. Virtual try-on technology, which struggled to attain mainstream adoption, has lately gained traction as it allows consumers to virtually test different looks as well as gather meaningful data of the retail brands. The cutting-edge fitting solutions detect the facial landmarks with 180-degree visualization, skin tones, and various other facial characteristics. Beauty and cosmetic retail stores are increasingly incorporating these solutions to suggest suitable cosmetics in physical shops with the help of digital screens and interactive mirrors.
The European market captured the largest revenue share of over 35.0% in 2020 and is expected to maintain its lead throughout the forecast period, owing to the presence of several notable fashion brands in the region. The region has played a significant role in introducing new trends, styles, and designs, which are then followed by other fashion enthusiasts globally. The presence of an extensive retailer base is encouraging the setting up of multiple startups in this region. Furthermore, the rising competitiveness among retailers is offering growth prospects to the regional market, as retailers are increasingly adopting innovative digital technologies to increase footfall as well as engagement levels.
With the U.S. at the forefront, the North American market accounted for a significant revenue share in 2020. The early adoption of simulation technologies is expected to influence the regional market growth over the forecast period. Major participants in the industry such as True Fit Corporation; Zugara, Inc.; SenseMi Smart Solutions; and Perfitly are headquartered in the U.S. Marketers in the region are subsequently favoring advanced 3D visualization solutions to build their company’s image and reduce their operational expenditures.
Asia Pacific is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The soaring demand for advanced solutions that can help customers make prompt buying decisions is likely to contribute to the regional market growth. The region also leads the e-commerce sector, with the presence of China, India, Japan, and South Korea outpacing all other regions. A similar trend is expected to continue over the forecast period.
