In fashion eCommerce, images are crucial. They are often the first thing people see when browsing online. Unlike people who shop in physical stores, online shoppers cannot touch, feel, and try on fashion items. Because of this, eCommerce sites rely heavily on images to communicate product details and drive sales. Yet, images do more than just catch the eye if online fashion retailers leverage them effectively. By incorporating visual eCommerce site search tech like image tagging, your store can make images a powerful product-finding tool. Thus, it is easier for shoppers to search for and buy exactly what they want in your store.
If you run an online store, you know how tedious it is to operate with huge volumes of images. Let’s say, someone searches for a T-shirt. Your store might display thousands of product images from different brands and styles. This is the nature of eCommerce, especially in fashion. Yet, tagging fashion attributes manually for these products can feel like a never-ending task.
What if you could make this process easier through automated image tagging? This way, you wouldn’t need to update product information constantly. But people can still find your products through different keywords.
Image tagging, or photo tagging, is powered by computer vision. It employs deep learning models to analyze every pixel of an image. It thus is capable of recognizing which elements appear in a photo. In terms of fashion, this technology can detect details such as colors, shapes, patterns, vibes, and even emotions.
Let’s take an example. When you upload the photo below, the computer vision will detect and describe what it can see.
It can recognize objects, whether it's a sweater or an outer item. Then it can also detect fashion attributes like colors, patterns, collar design, hand style, waist design, overall vibe, etc. The system will then generate relevant keywords or content tags, such as:
- Hood
- Long sleeves
- Wide fit
- Long length
- Solid
- Green
- Casual
A collection of these content tags forms the foundation for product descriptions.
And the best part? This whole process is fully automated.
For some sites, image tagging is still a manual task. Their in-house merchandising or eCommerce team typically handles it. They rely on brands and third-party vendors to provide tagging information. Then, they will be responsible for cleaning up and organizing the tags. However, with human input, mistakes can occur. That can lead to missing or incorrect tagging.
Automated image tagging eliminates these human errors. Thanks to that, it can ensure consistent and accurate product tagging every time. This functionality makes photo tagging invaluable for improving eCommerce site search.
