12 Product Filter Examples for Fashion Website

A YesPlz Guide

YesPlz.AI, May 2022

Service planning is hard when you’re trying to integrate technology with service offerings. What do you offer? How do you know whether you’re planning too little or overplanning? And how do you even begin?

Fashion eCommerce stores know this dilemma all too well: you want to integrate new service offerings, and you know that there’s a lot of technology out there to help: but where do you begin? 

 

By taking the time to plan your service offerings, you’re setting up your eCommerce for success.

What technology should you integrate?

 

Fashion artificial intelligence (AI) is artificial intelligence that understands the ins-and-outs of fashion. Fashion AI can understand fashion taxonomy, and even develop fashion taste that fits your customers. It can include search, recommendations, personalization–and can perform the same job as a helpful in-store sales associate. 

 

The number of ways to implement fashion AI are dizzying–and many fashion eCommerce stores are concerned about the implementation process. But, once you start to break down the steps to create an action plan, it’s not as overwhelming.

 

Why use fashion AI in your eCommerce?

 

Nearly every major retailer is using fashion AI in some form, from predictive analytics to search. Utilizing fashion AI will help your brand keep up with the competitive industry landscape, and stay ahead of competitors. 

 

The benefits of fashion AI include:

  • Increased rates of customer satisfaction, resulting in higher rates of return

 

  • Easy-to-navigate search tools for customers, leading to more completed purchases

 

  • More accurate product recommendations, with higher basket sizes

 

  • Automatic product tagging of new SKUs, saving retailers precious time and energy

 

You can learn more about all of the benefits of fashion AI in our Complete Guide to Fashion AI.

 

The Steps to Creating a Service Plan

 

By following the below checklist, you can make sure that fashion AI planning and integration is seamless, and aligned with your eCommerce’s goals.

Step 1: Define service scenario.

 

Forget all of the different types of technology, and the question of whether technology can help or not. First, define the service scenario. But, how? We recommend identifying either a pain point or an experience that has the potential to delight your customers. Perhaps you find that customers are struggling to complete their purchases after repeated search attempts. Or, customers simply aren’t engaging with product recommendations. You’ve identified your pain point.

 

Alternatively, some eCommerce stores want to go above and beyond their competitors–by creating experiences that not only solve problems, but delight and bring joy to customers. In this case, you can brainstorm different scenarios.

 

Some examples could include:
-a style quiz
-a personal wardrobe
-daily style curation over email
The opportunities are sky-high for those eCommerce brands willing to look into the future.

 

Step 2: Make the logic in order to implement the service.

 

Unfortunately, there isn’t a magic wand you can wave to translate the service into some form that your website can understand. But, there is good news: it’s not as difficult as it seems. 

 

Simply set a rule for your service. Let’s say you’re planning to integrate recommendations into a product page. You can set a rule to show recommendations from the most popular brands first. Or most-clicked products. Or visually similar products. You can set the rule yourself.

 

Tip: The more attribute data you have, the more services you can create. For example, you can use fashion AI to pull only “floral print” tops or “spring vibe” skirts that match the tops, and display the collection under the spring banner “Our spring collection.” Fashion AI makes this easy.



Step 3: Test with users.

 

Without a test run with users, you won’t know how the service is helping or delighting your customers. By testing and measuring, you can know the actions that users take. Are your customers clicking more products? Placing more items in a shopping cart? End up purchasing more items overall?



Step 4: Refine usability and polish design.

 

After testing, you’ll likely receive feedback that will cause you to go back and refine the service design. Don’t worry–it’s completely normal (and troubling if you don’t have any feedback to implement). This will get you closer to the service implementation that your customers want.

 

Step 5: Continuous reiteration

 

Part of the design process includes continuous reiteration–because nothing is ever perfect. There’s always room for improvement, and by implementing a mindset of continuous reiteration, you can continue to stay on top of the latest trends and keep customers satisfied.
