"StitchSavvy" - AI-Powered Personal Fashion Concierge

My goal was to create a high-converting landing page for a fashion service. I brainstormed with DeepSeek (AI) to generate options that would allow me to demonstrate multiple UX principles. We settled on 'StitchSavvy - AI Personal Fashion Concierge' because it:

- Combines trending topics (AI + sustainability)

- Allows demonstration of both tech and fashion UX

- Fills a visible market gap between subscription boxes and fast fashion apps

- Provides clear user problems to solve (morning stress, decision fatigue)

Device Type: Mobile-first responsive design (375x812 viewport)

DESIGN PROCESS EXPLANATION

Approach:

"My design process followed UXcel's recommended learnings, applying 12 Landing Page exercises and 8 UX Writing Strategy exercises systematically:

A. Research & Strategy Phase:

• Competitive analysis revealed a gap in sustainable, AI-powered daily styling
• Target audience: Time-poor professionals valuing convenience and ethics
• Defined core value proposition: "Daily outfits + AI personalization + Sustainability."

B. Visual Design Decisions:

1. Color Palette:

• Charcoal (#2D3436): Sophistication, readability

Rationale: Charcoal provides excellent contrast against an off-white background (15:1 ratio), while being softer than pure black, which aligns with the sophisticated, minimalist aesthetic.

• Sage Green (#55EFC4): Sustainability differentiation, primary CTAs

Contrast Note: Sage Green on Charcoal text has a 14.53:1 ratio (WCAG AA & AAA compliant).

Sage Green on Off-white has a 1.45:1 ratio (not compliant for text), so it's used with dark text overlay.

• Dusty Rose (#E66767): Fashion warmth, secondary accents

Rationale: Dusty Rose adds warmth and fashion-forward appeal without being too feminine or overwhelming. It's the "personality" color.

• Off-white (#FDFDFD): Minimalist canvas, reduced eye strain

Rationale: Off-white is warmer than pure white (#FFFFFF), reducing eye strain while maintaining a clean, minimalist appearance. It creates better depth when paired with subtle shadows.

WHY SAGE GREEN (#55EFC4) IS ACTUALLY BRILLIANT FOR STITCHSAVVY

1. Competitive Differentiation

• Industry Norm: Fashion tech is dominated by:
  • Black/White/Pink
  • Black/White/Blue (Amazon, Zalando)
  • Black/White/Gold (luxury brands)
• Sage Green Opportunity: No major competitor owns this color space. It makes StitchSavvy instantly recognizable.

2. Sustainability Signal

• Color Psychology: Green = nature, growth, eco-friendly
• Target Audience: 73% of millennials are willing to pay more for sustainable products (Nielsen)
• Brand Positioning: Unlike competitors who "add" sustainability, StitchSavvy bakes it into the brand identity through color
• Visual Cue: Every time users see the CTA button, they subconsciously reinforce "this brand cares about the environment."

3. Emotional Resonance

• Fresh & Modern: Not "corporate green" (darker, traditional)
• Optimistic: Brighter than olive, more sophisticated than lime
• Calming Effect: Studies show mint/sage greens reduce anxiety - perfect for a service that reduces "outfit anxiety."
• Gender Neutral: Appeals to all genders (unlike pink or blue)

4. Fashion Industry Context

• Emerging Trend: Sage/mint green is rising in fashion:
  • Pantone Color of the Year 2022: "Glacier Lake" (blue-green)
  • Luxury brands: Bottega Veneta's "Parakeet," Jacquemus' mint
  • Sustainability movement: Brands like Reformation use earth tones
• Positioning: Makes StitchSavvy feel forward-thinking rather than following trends

THE COMPLETE COLOR STRATEGY

Charcoal (#2D3436) - The Foundation

Why not black (#000000)?

• Pure black creates harsh contrast, eye strain
• Charcoal is sophisticated, softer, and more premium
• Better for minimalist aesthetic (feels intentional, not default)
• Creates depth when layered (charcoal text on off-white vs. pure black)

Why not a lighter gray?

• Needs sufficient contrast for readability
• Charcoal provides a 12.68:1 ratio of off-white (AAA accessibility)
• Still reads as "black" but with personality

Fashion Context:

• High-end fashion brands often use charcoal/anthracite
• Associated with sophistication, timelessness
• Works with EVERY other color in the palette

Dusty Rose (#E66767) - The Personality

Why not bright pink?

• Bright pink (#FF69B4) is a juvenile, "fast fashion" aesthetic
• Dusty Rose is sophisticated, fashion-forward
• Works across genders (not "girly" pink)
• Earthier, more sustainable feel

Why this specific hue?

• Blue undertone (E6 = 90% red) makes it versatile
• Desaturated enough not to compete with Sage Green
• Warm but not aggressive
• Historical fashion context: "Dusty Rose" is a classic couture color

Psychological Effect:

• Warmth + approachability
• Humanizes the tech aspect (AI can feel cold)
• Subtle nod to fashion without being cliché

Off-white (#FDFDFD) - The Canvas

Why not pure white (#FFFFFF)?

• Pure white creates glare, eye fatigue
• Off-white is warmer, more welcoming
• Creates better depth perception
• Feels more "premium" and intentional

Why this specific off-white?

• #FDFDFD has barely perceptible warmth
• Still achieves AAA contrast with charcoal
• Neutral enough to let other colors shine
• Medical research: Warmer whites reduce digital eye strain

2. Typography:

• Playfair Display (headings): Fashion elegance
• Inter (body): Mobile readability, modern feel

3. Imagery Strategy:

• Hero: Relatable professional using app (aspirational yet achievable)
• Icons: Reinforce value props without text reliance
• Consistent tone: Authentic, diverse, lifestyle-focused
