In late 2024, during a busy festive shopping weekend on Commercial Street in Bengaluru, our founder watched shoppers wait over 45 minutes in fitting room lines just to try on a couple of heavy ethnic lehengas and suits. Exhausted by the long wait and stifling fitting rooms, nearly half of those shoppers walked out without making a purchase.

That evening, a simple question was asked: "Why can't trying on high-end fashion be as fast, fun, and effortless as taking a selfie?"

We spent months collaborating with boutique store owners and computer vision engineers to build DRAPON TryOn — an ultra-fast AI draping engine capable of accurately fitting intricate ethnic wear, sarees, jackets, and western apparel onto a shopper in under 3 seconds.

What started as an experiment in a single Bengaluru boutique has grown into a powerful B2B software platform powering smart mirror kiosks and online stores across India, helping merchants boost sales conversion while eliminating fitting room bottlenecks.
