Act as a practical personal stylist. Help me build a wardrobe plan for [OCCASION OR GOAL] that fits my lifestyle rather than a trend. About me: [BODY AND FIT PREFERENCES] Style preferences and dislikes: [STYLE PREFERENCES] What I own now: [CURRENT WARDROBE] Budget and shopping limits: [BUDGET] Context: [CLIMATE AND DRESS CODES]
First, identify the 3-5 outfit formulas most useful for me and explain the job each formula does. Then produce: 1. A capsule of 12-18 garments and shoes, divided into keep, consider buying, and optional items. 2. Eight complete outfits, with layers, shoes, bag, and simple accessory guidance; label the occasion for each. 3. A prioritized shopping list with a target category, color, fabric or construction detail, fit check, price range, and reason it fills a gap. 4. A one-week outfit rotation using the items I already own wherever possible. Use my stated comfort, fit, cultural, mobility, and care preferences as constraints. Recommend silhouettes and proportions as options, not rules tied to body shape, age, gender, or presumed appearance. Do not claim that an item will fit me without measurements or a try-on, and do not invent retailer inventory, prices, fabric content, or product links. If color information is missing, use a restrained neutral base plus one accent and explain the logic. Tell me which existing items to photograph or measure before buying. Ask up to 3 clarifying questions only if a required input is missing. Before answering, check that each suggested purchase supports at least two outfits and that no outfit violates my stated dress code, climate, budget, or comfort limits.

How to use
- List what you own by category and color, or paste notes from photos of the pieces you wear most.
- State non-negotiables such as shoe comfort, laundering, modesty, sensory needs, weather, and workplace rules.
- Check that the shopping list fills genuine gaps instead of duplicating an item that already works.
- Follow up with: “Create three versions of outfit 4 using only my existing wardrobe, and explain the missing piece only if it changes the result.”
Variations
Travel packing
Use this to make a compact packing list for a specific trip.
Create a packing capsule for [DESTINATION] from [DATES] for [TRIP PURPOSE]. Expected weather and activities: [CONDITIONS]. My style and comfort limits: [PREFERENCES]. Items I can bring: [LUGGAGE LIMIT]. Build a list of 18 items or fewer, including shoes and outerwear, then show 10 outfits. Mark laundry-dependent items and one weather backup. Prefer repeatable combinations over single-use looks. Do not invent a forecast; tell me what weather detail would change the packing list.
Event outfit
Use this when dressing for a wedding, interview, presentation, or formal event.
Style me for [EVENT] on [DATE] at [LOCATION]. Dress code and cultural expectations: [DRESS CODE]. I own: [AVAILABLE ITEMS]. My fit, comfort, and budget limits: [LIMITS]. Give three outfit directions at different formality levels, each with garments, shoes, outerwear, accessories, and a grooming note. Explain what makes each appropriate for the setting. If a purchase is needed, name the category and fit criteria, not a made-up product or price.
Closet edit
Use this before buying more clothes or organizing a crowded closet.
Help me audit my wardrobe for [LIFESTYLE NEED]. Here is my inventory: [WARDROBE LIST]. I wear these items most: [FAVORITES]. I avoid these items because: [PROBLEMS]. Sort the inventory into keep, tailor or repair, donate or sell, and revisit. Identify duplicates, missing outfit-building layers, and three shopping rules for future purchases. Do not tell me to discard an item solely because it is old or unfashionable; base decisions on fit, condition, use, and coordination.
Tips
- Photographing your most-worn outfits often reveals your true proportions and color preferences more reliably than a list of aspirational style labels.
- Ask for outfit formulas before a shopping list; formulas prevent one-off purchases that work only with a single look.
- For fit-sensitive items such as trousers, bras, blazers, and shoes, have the AI give try-on criteria instead of treating a size chart as a guarantee.
- Record return windows and care requirements alongside recommendations, especially if your wardrobe needs to work for commuting or frequent washing.
FAQ
Can AI tell me my color season from a photo?
It can offer tentative observations, but lighting, camera processing, and personal preference make a definitive result unreliable. Use colors you consistently enjoy and can see in varied light.
Will this prompt find specific products to buy?
It is designed to create a buying brief first. You can then ask for search terms or compare product pages you provide, while confirming stock, fit, and returns yourself.
Do I need to share body measurements?
No. Useful fit preferences and items you already like are enough, though measurements can improve guidance for tailored or size-sensitive pieces.
