MYCloth: Towards Intelligent and Interactive Online T-Shirt Customization based on User's Preference

TL;DR
MYCloth tackles the tedious online T-shirt customization process by integrating LLM-driven prompt refinement and Stable Diffusion-based paint generation with a learning-based virtual try-on. The system provides four components—Pattern Selection, Paint Generation, Cloth Adjustment, and Virtual Try-On—and includes a novel Warping/Cloth Generation pipeline with attention-based flow and refinement losses. Training uses a two-term loss combining $L_s$ and $L_{per}$ with a multi-scale formulation $L=\sum_{n=1}^N (n+1)(\lambda_s L_s^n + \lambda_{per} L_{per}^n)$. Evaluations on VITON and a user study show improved realism, alignment to user intent, and positive user experience, suggesting practical viability for interactive online customization.
Abstract
In conventional online T-shirt customization, consumers, \ie, users, can achieve the intended design only after repeated adjustments of the design prototypes presented by sellers in online dialogues. However, this process is prone to limited visual feedback and cumbersome communication, thus detracting from users' customization experience and time. This paper presents an intelligent and interactive online customization system, named \textbf{MYCloth}, aiming to enhance the T-shirt customization experience. Given the user's text input, our MYCloth employs ChatGPT to refine the text prompt and generate the intended paint of the cloth via the Stable Diffusion model. Our MYCloth also enables the user to preview the final outcome via a novel learning-based virtual try-on model. The whole system allows to iteratively adjust the cloth till optimal design is achieved. We verify the system's efficacy through a series of performance evaluations and user studies, highlighting its ability to streamline the online customization process and improve overall satisfaction.
