Layered is an iOS app that builds a digital wardrobe from your selfies rather than requiring you to photograph every item individually. Point your camera at yourself, and the AI reads your outfit to catalog what you own — a radically lower-friction approach to wardrobe digitization that most closet apps get wrong by making it too much work to set up. Once your wardrobe is catalogued, Layered becomes a daily outfit advisor: it recommends combinations from what you already own, generates Pinterest-style lookbooks for new pieces you're considering, and creates travel packing capsules calibrated to destination, weather, and luggage constraints. Cost-per-wear tracking surfaces clothes you're ignoring, making decluttering data-driven rather than intuition-based. Built by indie iOS developer Vadim Drobinin, Layered launched on Product Hunt and immediately hit the top five. It's a freemium app — free to start with paid unlocks — and represents the kind of thoughtful, focused indie product that succeeds by solving one problem better than anyone else rather than trying to be everything.

Reviewer scorecard
“The core insight — read outfits from selfies instead of making users photograph items — is a genuine UX breakthrough for this category. Every other closet app dies in onboarding. Layered solves that. Solid indie execution from a developer who clearly uses the product.”
“The open-source canvas library is excellent for building custom drawing tools. The AI sketch-to-code is a nice bonus but the core library is the real value.”
“Selfie-based wardrobe reading sounds elegant but breaks down on layering, partial outfits, and anything not visible in a selfie (jeans, shoes, bags). The AI accuracy for attribute tagging in real-world lighting conditions is almost certainly worse than the demo. Fashion AI has been over-promised for a decade.”
“Sustainable fashion is a $15B opportunity and AI-powered wardrobe optimization is finally good enough to make a dent in overconsumption. Apps like Layered that show you what you already own and compute cost-per-wear are quietly more consequential than they appear.”
“Sketch-to-code is the natural interface for design. No more translating mental models through Figma to code. Draw it, ship it. This is where UI development is heading.”
“As someone who genuinely wrestles with 'I have nothing to wear' syndrome, this is the app I've wanted for years. The travel capsule generator alone is worth installing — packing for a week trip without overpacking is a real skill gap that AI can fill.”
“Drawing a rough wireframe and getting working React code is magical. It is not pixel-perfect but it gets the structure right. Perfect for rapid prototyping sessions with clients.”
