Polyvore: Shop, Style, Fashion 3.0.2.0
It's more than a fashion platform, as it lets users explore their creativity by encouraging them to create collages with amazing items they can later buy. It's also very beneficial for retail companies, as they ensure products are being promoted through the sharing feature.
Clean and lightweight interface
For a website that's filled with various items and collages, Polyvore managed to sport a clean interface that doesn't seem clogged with content and provides access to all sections at all times.
There are no instructions but the layout is similar to that of many apps, with the menu on the left side of the screen and settings hidden under the 'hamburger' icon on the top right corner.
You can't use Polyvore without registering with an account, either Facebook or Twitter. However, the app will post messages to your friends unless you tweak settings a bit. In addition, it collects a lot of information on your profile and your friends, so it's probably best if you register with just an email address although it may take more time.
Browse through various collages, like and buy
The trending section is filled with all sorts of posts that have gained popularity. There's also a section only with fashion items and one with beauty products. Some collages come with a short description and the option to like, comment and even share them for friends to see.
Also, all pictures are HD and users can follow uploaders. Polyvore app also displays solely products in the items section. In addition, some products may be purchased. The app displays the price and opens the seller's website, without using the browser so you can buy items without leaving the app.
Create collages
Polyvore was clearly created for fashion enthusiasts, by providing them with the option of pairing items and creating their own collages. The editor provides users with all the tools they need to pair products, add background images and accessories to your creations. It lets you browse sets and collections easily and quickly from your favorite members in the now vertically scrolling Following feed.
You can publish them or share with friends. The app also notifies you when other users have liked or commented on your posts, or when new content is added. The app also lets you add text to your creations.
