ShopLook - Outfit Maker Reviews

by MissaLynn_

I’ve had ShopLook for ~a year maybe two and it just won’t let me log in for weeks at a time and a lot of times when I request for a password reset link will not send me the link. Eventually it will accept the password I’ve been typing in a week or so later without reset. I’ve been hoping that this would stop but obviously it’s not going to. I can’t even look for my account with the search bar or even google if I go on the website and try that way (also tried to do the reset request from the website as well and that didn’t work). I’m just getting really annoyed with it and probably will delete ShopLook soon

I like it because it’s very similar to Polyvore, but I have a couple suggestions that will make it better. (These first couple are about the “collections” section) 1.) There should be a search bar in “collections”. 2.) When click on a “collection”, and then hit the back button, it should take you back to where you found that “collection”, not a random spot. Next, 3.) There should be a more detailed filter tool. Lastly, 4.) When you open ShopLook for the first time, it asks if you to design outfits or homes. I picked outfits, and if I wanted to add a piece of furniture to my set, the only place to find some is in the “collections”.

I used polyvore for more than 7+ years and I was heartbroken when I found out that they simply went behind the users backs, I searched for an app that actually worked, was easy to use and not a total headache and I went through fashmates and so many others and this one was the only one that ACTUALLY worked sort of smoothly and was easy to use. I love that ShopLook is sleek in its design and that even though not many options are available (if you search for Manolo Blahnik only a few will appear) users can use and find others uploads of things (or upload their own) but I have a few complaints that are ruining my whole experience of ShopLook that has so much potential.

#1: It crashes like CRAZY and when it does it deletes the progress you’ve made on a ongoing outfit or creation. It’s so annoying and the biggest problem I have with ShopLook, #2: you can’t search for your liked items; there’s simply no search bar for it so you sorta just aimlessly search for the item you want. They should absolutely add that. Overall it’s a app with great potential if they fix those simple problems with a quick upgrade

I enjoy how similar it is to polyvore in that there is a platform to make outfits and posts for aesthetics, but there are some issues in searching for items. So far, ShopLook is better for looking at other people’s collections than making your own.

First, it’s difficult to search through liked items since you just have to scroll through, there isn’t a way to type in “skirt” and find all your liked skirts or something. There are only a few or one columns/groups on screen at a time depending on if your looking through likes or when creating an outfit, but either way scrolling though takes forever.

Second, I wish there separated list to look through liked items and liked collection from other people. I don’t want them lumped together because if I’m looking for collections I don’t want to have to sift through it in the midst of all my liked items.

Third, when looking for products it’s hard to get what your looking for specifically. If I’m looking for a medium length black skirt, I’ve found that I can’t just type in “medium” and set the filters to skirts and black, I get one skirt even though I know there are more items than that out there. It would be nice if I could just type in “medium black skirt” and get stuff in the ball park of what I was looking for. So I’d want either the search feature to be improved or the filters to be better, or maybe both.

Over all, if finding liked items or products was easier, I’d enjoy ShopLook a lot better.

I am so happy ShopLook exists. I loved Polyvore so the fact that there is an app like it is AMAZING!!! HOWEVER, ShopLook isn’t perfect. I have some old polyvore creations that I would love to post on ShopLook , however I am unable to, due to the fact that uploading a picture makes it pretty much public domain. Which I don’t want seeing as I have worked very hard on the outfits I make. Not only that but sometimes I will edit a picture before using it on an app like this. But once again because the pics become open to everyone, multiple people could end up using my pics. Which I really don’t want. The images also look quite pixilated around the edges, giving them a harsh look. If the edges were smoother I would totally give it 4 stars! I’m really hoping that soon I can upload my pics without anybody using them as well, because I love the color scheme, it pretty easy to use and very much like polyvore! And I really want to give ShopLook more stars, but because of the two things I mentioned, I just can’t. Not yet anyway😉

Polyvore shutting down was really disappointing and I’ve been looking for a new app to use. The clothing choices are good (could use some improvement though and a more broad selection, especially for the dresses) but everything takes a really long time to load, the clothes also have to load for a while if I scroll down merely once or twice. It’s also kinda frustrating how I can only add 1 article of clothing to the page when I look for clothes, then I have to scroll all the way back down (which takes a while, due to all the loading) to add the other shirt if I’m having trouble deciding. It would also be nice if you could make your account private. It’s an ok app overall, and I can see that the creators are working hard on it and I like that they’re reading the reviews and improving. Looking forward to future updates.

I’ve been looking around for something to replace polyvore and when I found this I was elated! I’ve seen very good outfits and reviews so far and even though ShopLook has its flaws, it has impressed me.

However I do have a couple complaints that I’ve seen a lot of people get concerned about. Firstly, there doesn’t seem to be a ‘deactivate account’ or ‘delete account’ button and a lot of people that have wanted to delete their account haven’t been able to. I too am wondering where the button is in case I eventually decide to get rid of my account. The other minor issue is that when you submit your email, you aren’t asked to verify it, which I find a tad bit strange. ShopLook is also very very laggy, which is a but inconvenient, but whatever.

Otherwise, pretty good job! I like what you have done so far and look forward for what is to come for ShopLook :)

by Littletinydot

I love the potential and how relatively easy it to navigate it but its so difficult to find things i like without having to upload pictures and i do hope that eventually they end up having the same clip feature as polyvore did cause it makes things so much easier and i hope they fix the ability to upload your old outfits from polyvore atleast in ShopLook because the pictures of items people upload should be searchable for others to use the item too because someone new who doesn't much know how it works it might be a little discouraging not finding things they actually like or not find anything related to what they look up at all

by Wisebelievermilkshake

Polyvore was one of my go to apps, I would use it everyday to relieve stress and just have something to do during my free time. I was obviously devastated when ShopLook shutdown, all of my years of hard work and meeting people on ShopLook who love fashion as much as I do was gone and it’s hurt. When I found this app I was excited, now I can continue doing what I love. But this new “premium” feature is just outrageous! $3.99 a month just to upload a picture or use background removers is just down right shameful! With everything that is going on in the world, I’m not even sure if I’ll be able to work during the summer and I’m a full-time college student! I just find it upsetting how I would have to pay $3.99 each month just to use features on ShopLook that were free before. I really love ShopLook but if features like this will be continued to be added I’m afraid I will have to delete ShopLook and look else where for other apps similar to this one. I hope it doesn’t come down to that but Polyvore did not have its users pay to upload pictures from their phone. I will continue to use ShopLook but if I have to pay for features that’s should be free I will be deleting it.

It's very similar to polyvore, it's just missing letting me use my own text on sets. Also I would love it to be more search specific because when I type booties nothing comes up, however when I look at the shoes section there are booties on there. I'd like to search for faux fur throws, scarf, vest but nothing shows up. Also this is geared to clothing and styling more then interior decor, so I literally have to load my own images for anything interior design....which I don't mind because it's SUPER easy to load my own images way better than polyvore ever did. I think all in all I love this better than polyvore lol

by @dreamer081230

i was a big polyvore fan and found ShopLook soon after polyvore was shut down. it took a little while to get used to but for the most part it’s the same app. one complaint i have that i would think would be really easy to fix is when u make a collection of items, it shows the option to remove them, but it’s always shown me an error screen and i can’t take items out of a collection. there’s things i just don’t need anymore as well as items i put in accidentally. this would be really helpful because my collections r so big now it’s hard to find things sometimes and the stuff i don’t need is just in the way. also, why is it that when u go to look for an item on the home page, you get different results than when u shop while you’re working on an outfit?? this doesn’t make any sense to me and whenever i’m looking for a specific item, sometimes i look at both, but i usually just use the one on the outfit maker because it always seems to have more results.

I’ve been on ShopLook for over a year now and I use it practically every day. I absolutely love it and cannot be happier that ShopLook exists. Especially after since Polyvore was shut down. I also love they added the frame option to non-premium users. However, I’ve been finding a lot of weird posts on the home page. I keep finding posts that are related to s*icical thoughts and even hints of p*rn. It’s kind of discouraging to see content like that on a platform like this app; a fashion app where people can post their creativity. I really don’t know what can be done about this, but I can only hope things will change for the better soon.

Im sure you’ve heard that this app is equivalent to the Polyvore app, and in many ways it’s even better. I honestly don’t mind paying the monthly fee to access everything it has to give the best sets if it helps develop ShopLook to perform better in the future. There are 2 things that are extremely frustrating with ShopLook and is the only reasons for the 4 stars. One is that can crash and when it does you lose EVERYTHING you were currently working on. Polyvore would crash, BUT it would automatically save it into your drafts so it wouldn’t be lost. The second gripe I have is, IF you do save something you cannot access it from any of the challenges that you were working on before the crash. So the point to save anything into draft is useless, because you can’t even access it to try and recreate it by glancing at it. You must start completely over. ShopLook is extremely helpful and useful for someone like me with extreme anxiety and PTSD. It’s relaxing in way that makes you focus on whatever you’re working on. It really gets the creative juices flowing. I really love it and hope these things can be added soon. Thank you to everyone that created ShopLook.

First let me start off by saying I have downloaded almost all the apps similar to Polyvore and this is the absolute best working and user friendly app in comparison to the others. Bravo to the developers! 🙌🏼

I have a small request though…is there a way to update ShopLook to have formatting to instagram? Even when I zoom out to post on IG it crops off a portion of my board which is incredibly frustrating. I could move everything up higher and just crop to fit, but if you guys could format the boards to fit Instagram, I think you’d be, bar none, the best.

Slowly ShopLook is getting better. Last year when Polyvore was shut down, I instantly went here, but it was a skeleton of an app. Now it’s so similar to polyvore: upload your own items directly from websites (!!!!!), make collections, browse other peoples’ uploads, etc. it’s becoming a wonderful app.
I just wish there was a way to select multiple items to add to a collection instead of just selecting items one by one. It makes things tedious. I also wish you could batch upload things (like if there’s a single t shirt in multiple colors, just batch upload each color).
Regardless, it’s becoming a great app and I’m enjoying it a lot.

I think shop work is a great app but just now I got on to make an outfit and it wouldn’t let me tap anything because the hot bar was in the way I seriously got so frustrated that I couldn’t take it anymore and I had to delete it. I still love it but I would like them to change that because it’s super Duper annoying and frustrating if anybody feels the same way please find a way to stop it.☹️

I, like many others, was extremely upset when Polyvore was taken down and bought by another company. It was the only app and way I could express my creativity and love of fashion. I would upload outfits almost everyday and I loved it so much. So when it was taken down I was very upset and months later, this amazing app comes out. I was happy and excited to finally show my creative abilities. It’s an amazing app for free! What more can you ask for? Very similar to Polyvore and one of the best apps out there to make outfits and show your love and knowledge of fashion. Would highly recommend 🥴🥰

I love ShopLook!! I was really sad when polyvore shutdown, but when I heard this app was out I immediately went to it! I have been a user of this app for a while and I love seeing the improvements on ShopLook . I especially love how y’all added that we could search items instead of having to scroll to our items! I think it would be amazing if y’all could do that for collections in the future. Sometimes I am looking for a specific collection and sometimes it will take me forever to find it. But, this is an amazing app and I will continue to use it for a long time.

As a fashion writer and stylist, Polyvore was a revolutionary tool for my work, research and leisure. Not only is this app a great spiritual successor, but some features are even more well done! I love the ease of being able to Google search for item images within ShopLook especially. A few cleanups here and there might be nice, but before you compare, keep in mind that Polyvore was over a decade old when it went away. They had 11 years to fine-tune. ShopLook is only a few years old and has been making great and steady improvements. Great job, this app (and let me know if you ever need a writer! 😉)

by Yujlias

I’ve been using ShopLook a lot, and it’s just a really good app for me to release my creativity. I like how you can upload your own pictures if you can’t find what you need, and how there’s an option to turn your projects into a drafts so you can save it for later, and how you can do the challenges made by other accounts. ShopLook is good because for me it focuses more on the outfits rather then the likes or followers. It has a good community no toxic people anywhere. Overall a nice app and if you’re looking for a replacement for polyvore, this app is the best one.

by Stormyrox5

I love ShopLook! Nothing else has come this close to filling the void Polyvore left 😉 But there’s a lot of room for improvement. I have two main issues with it. First, I feel like the selection of brands is very narrow. Most of the clothes that aren’t user-submitted either come from top designers or fast-fashion brands with not much in between. Second, there are a few problems with the filters. There are a lot of cases where the results don’t match the filters, and there aren’t many color options. Otherwise this is a great app and lots of fun!

I love ShopLook so freaking much, and it’s the greatest thing since Polyvore. So bless whoever made ShopLook! Just a few things!! 1. I hate how much it crashes. 2. It randomly logs me out sometimes and it’s so annoying? 3. I hate how it removes your rank if you haven’t posted in a few days. People can’t be on it 24/7, aha. 4. SO NOW THERES SOME SILLY PREMIUM THING ? Oh no honey, what is you doin’... polyvore wasn’t like this at ALL. I’m not paying for SH*T. Sorry, not sorry. I’m way too poor, and ShopLook is a huge freaking stress reliever for me. But, if things are going to start getting really sucky with not being able to do anything because of this new premium or whatever you’re calling it. I’m going to delete ShopLook , honestly. I hate when really good apps downgrade so hard like this. What’s next? Tons of apps? You have to watch an app each time you search an item?
I liked how it was free before to upload pictures from my camera roll onto it, now I’ll have to have the premium thing? Hell no.

Edit: thanks for responding to my review! I now understand and sorry for being mean, I wasn’t trying to be one of /those/ types of reviewers. ♥️
