Fashion styling and AI imagery, explained in plain language
Incrime is an independent information site about fashion styling. It explains how editorials, campaigns, covers and showcases are planned, how a stylist works with a photographer and a set designer, and how garments, colour and light come together in a finished image.
A growing part of the site looks at AI imagery in fashion: how generated pictures are briefed, selected and retouched, what they are used for in campaigns, and where real materials and human judgement still decide the result.
