Pre-Planning Gala Gowns

Dress Registry Prevents Duplicate Outfits at Events

— January 4, 2009 — Pop Culture
As these side-by-side shots show, two women wearing the same dress happens a lot in the real world--sometimes it even happens on the same night. The Dress Registry is a service that aims to cut down on the frequency with which dresses are duplicated by allowing divas to register their gala gowns online before the event.

Users simply search for their event, adding it if the gala isn’t already listed, and then add their dress. The Dress Registry has a database of dresses, and registered users can see the color, cut, style, UPC and style numbers, and other dress details. There are even pictures of the dresses available to make your choice crystal clear to fellow event attendees.
Trend Themes
1. Gown Registry - Creating a platform that allows attendees to register their gowns before events could potentially disrupt the fashion industry by streamlining the process for event organizers and reducing the likelihood of duplicate gowns.
2. Gala Gown AI - Developing AI technology that can analyze gown styles and colors and identify duplicates at events would create new disruptive innovation opportunities to streamline wardrobe planning and recommendation systems.
3. Rentable Gala Gowns - The establishment of rental services that ensure gala gowns are unique by not renting the same gown to multiple clients attending the same event could disrupt the fashion industry and meet the needs of attendees seeking one-time use garments.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - The dress registry could disrupt the fashion industry by streamlining gown selection for event organizers and reducing the likelihood of duplicate gowns, creating a platform for designers to showcase and industry experts to recommend unique fashion styles.
2. Event Planning - The Dress Registry could benefit event planners by providing a streamlined solution to managing wardrobe planning and reducing the incidence of the same gown being worn by two or more attendees and event participants invested in streamlining the event process would greatly benefit from gown registry applications.
3. Artificial Intelligence - Gala gown AI technology could automate wardrobe planning, get to know preferences and make affordable recommendations for various body types and sizes with predictive capabilities, and predictive data that can inform fashion inventory management.
