Tool
Decode the styling decisions in any fashion photo — proportions, colour strategy, layering, and what makes the look work. Claude is the strongest fit here because styling analysis is a conversation, not just a list — you want to probe the reasoning behind each decision.

Steps
Once connected (see setup above), use the Outfit Stylist tool:
- Upload the reference fashion photo and specify the depth of analysis needed — surface-level breakdown or deep styling deconstruction.
- Run `extract_styling` through `outfit-stylist` to generate the styling analysis.
- Ask Claude to go deeper on the most interesting technique identified — how does it work, where else is it applied, and how would changing it affect the look?
- Save the analysis as a reference for your styling file, content brief, or fashion education notes.
Example Prompt
Try this with Claude using the Outfit Stylist tool
Use outfit-stylist to extract the styling logic from this editorial photo. I want to understand the proportion play, colour strategy, and layering decisions. Then explain which single styling choice is doing the most work and how I could apply that technique to a more casual wardrobe.
Tips
- Ask Claude to identify the look's dominant styling principle — volume, tonal layering, contrast — so the analysis is anchored to a clear concept.
- Request a 'what if you changed X' question for the most interesting technique — it deepens the learning.
- For brand stylists, ask Claude to map the extracted techniques to the client brand's own aesthetic language.
