Wow intressting startups! I am most intressted to try Thinx because I am so curious of how that will work. But if I ever get to try I would do it first ar home!😂
These are also so unique and innovative! And I love the apps giving back. Thanks so much for sharing!
ASAP54 is right up my alley! I’m always dying to find out where someone got a top or pants.
Those are some pretty cool tech startups when it comes to fashion. I am impressed with the 3d imaging in one where you can create a bra to fit someone’s particular size.
Omg these are all awesome! I’m so interested in ASAP54 and Flont!
I feel like I need all of these now, lol. Perfitly would definitely come in handy for me.
I didn’t even know fashion tech is a thing!
I love learning about all of these! It’s amazing how technology and fashion are combining. I would especially like to try that perfect fit bra technology.

Fit before you buy…prefect? I think I need this is my life!
Nice. I especially love the ASAP54 that’ll help me accessorize my clothes and also ENDEER for a perfectly fitted bra. Really informative post.
Wow! I really like the jewelbots start up. The fashion is very nice too. I want to go shopping now!
unreal the world today! Such amazing start ups – shopping has completely changed with the advent of technology, and what I truly like is the reduction in challenges for people who are mobility impaired. Thanks for sharing, this was a fascinating read!
Wow what a unique concept I got to know today. I liked the app from ASAP54 this seems so innovative. Thanks for sharing, I might download it !!
Thank you !!!!! I had never heard of the majority of these, and downloaded two of the apps!
The bracelets for kids I think is the interesting ones!
I am pretty excited and amazed at all the applications and their capabilities but the one that struck me as the most incredible was the perfitly. I am so excited to try this and see how accurate the body scan and dimensions are when I receive the clothing and compare.
Imagine using an app exclusively to purchase jewelry. Could anyone have envisaged this at the start of the tech boom. These various apps will soon see the death of stores as physical locations where face to face interactions occur.
They’re great, but my favourites definitely Endeer, because I can’t for the life of me find a bra that fits perfectly, and Jewelbots, because I was super awkward while growing up and would have appreciated some help at making friends! Also, so good to teach girls how to code. We need more women in tech!
Thanks for sharing this app to me. It will be easier for me to mix my clothes ( the toughest moment in life). This article is really helpful. Thank you
These are really interesting. It’s good to be updated with the latest especially when it comes to fashion and finding the clothes that fit well. Thanks for the awesome list!
