Retail mirrors are an essential part of the clothes-buying process, but the Memory Mirror by Neiman Marcus takes this object to the next level. This high-tech mirror is equipped with a large screen and camera, enabling shoppers to look at multiple shopping options in a 360-degree format that shows multiple colorways, saving them from having to waste time in the dressing room by being choosy about color versus a particular item's style.
Other neat things that the mirror can do includes being able to share an item you're mulling over with a friend, or a sales associate, so that they can suggest similar items or accessories to pair with a garment. For now, the Memory Mirror is in use at the Walnut Creek Neiman Marcus location in California.
