Templates by product category

AI fashion photos for every product category.

Shoes need the camera low, dresses need the full length, lingerie needs soft light and close crops. Each On-Model template is a complete shot list built for one kind of product, run in one job so the whole set matches. Find your category below; every image on this page is a real template output.

01 · PDP Style / Catalog Upper Body

Tops & outerwear

AI model photos for tops and outerwear have one job: show fit and fabric the same way on every product page. Knitwear needs texture, jackets need structure through the shoulder, and a catalog of hundreds needs every shot lit and framed alike.

Why this template: Clean studio shots put your tops and outerwear in focus.

  • Front, back and close crops come back from one job, so the whole product page matches.
  • Logos, prints and seams stay as photographed.

In the app, open PDP Style or Catalog Upper Body in Templates. See also Flat-Lay to On-Model, Urban streetwear templates.

02 · Catalog Lower Body

Bottoms

Photos of jeans, trousers and skirts live or die on fit. A waist-up crop hides everything shoppers check first, so AI model photos for bottoms frame from the waist down.

Why this template: Lower-body framing highlights your bottoms.

  • Fit, rise and leg shape read clearly in a waist-down frame.
  • Back pockets, labels and hems get their own detail shot.

In the app, open Catalog Lower Body in Templates. See also Flat-Lay to On-Model.

03 · Outdoor Active

Activewear & athleisure

Activewear photos need movement. A static studio pose hides the stretch and support shoppers are paying for, so AI model photos for activewear show the garment in motion, outdoors.

Why this template: Movement-led outdoor shots suit your activewear and performance focus.

  • Running, stretching and standing poses in park, track and city settings.
  • The same set stays consistent across every pose.

In the app, open Outdoor Active in Templates.

04 · Terracotta

Dresses & jumpsuits

An AI dress model shot has to show what a dress does on a body: the silhouette, the drape, the length against the leg. Those decide the sale more than any close-up.

Why this template: Full-length sunlit framing shows the drape and movement of dresses and jumpsuits.

  • Full-length shots keep the hemline and silhouette in frame.
  • Warm natural light shows how the fabric falls and moves.

In the app, open Terracotta in Templates. See also How to make a lookbook.

05 · Create Packshot

Bags & accessories

Bag photography is about shape and material. Shoppers zoom into leather grain, hardware and stitching, so AI product photos for bags keep the product large in frame and lit the same way across the range.

Why this template: Product-focused packshots showcase your accessories without relying on garment framing.

  • One raw product photo becomes a matched studio set: front, angled and detail shots.
  • Bags, belts, scarves and jewelry sell on the product itself, so the frame stays on it.

In the app, open Create Packshot and pick the packshot style that fits your catalog. See also Create Packshot.

06 · Swimwear

Swimwear & beachwear

AI swimwear model photos replace the most expensive shoot in the calendar: travel, good weather and a narrow window of daylight. The whole range can be shot in any season from product photos.

Why this template: Beach and poolside settings fit your swimwear catalog.

  • Pool, beach and terrace scenes without a location shoot.
  • Tasteful, catalog-standard poses on adult models.

In the app, open Swimwear in Templates. See also Sunsets customer story.

07 · Underwear Studio

Lingerie & intimates

Lingerie photography is about fit and tone. AI model photos for lingerie have to show how a bra or set sits on the body and render skin and fabric colours true, without a busy set pulling the eye away.

Why this template: Soft studio light and close crops suit intimates without a distracting backdrop.

  • Lace, straps and trims stay sharp in close crops.
  • Tasteful, catalog-standard poses on adult models only.

In the app, open Underwear Studio in Templates.

08 · Footwear Studio Dynamic / Footwear Studio

Footwear

AI footwear model photos fail when the shoe is an afterthought at the bottom of a full-body frame. Shoppers want the silhouette, the sole and the materials, with the model there for scale and styling.

Why this template: Shoe-focused framing keeps your footwear at the center of every shot.

  • Low angles and shoe-level crops make the product the hero of the frame.
  • Footwear Studio Dynamic adds movement for campaigns; Footwear Studio is the calmer, catalog-ready option.

In the app, open Footwear Studio Dynamic or Footwear Studio in Templates. See also AI outfit generator.

09 · Sleep & Lounge

Loungewear & sleepwear

Loungewear and sleepwear sell comfort, which is hard to show on a hanger. On a model in a relaxed pose, shoppers see how soft fabrics drape and how a set is meant to be worn.

Why this template: Relaxed studio poses suit loungewear and sleepwear sets.

  • Relaxed standing and seated poses show how the set sits on the body.
  • Close crops keep lace edges and soft fabrics readable.

In the app, open Sleep & Lounge in Templates.

10 · Formalwear

Suits & tailoring

Suits are bought on construction and proportion. AI model photos for tailoring have to hold the details a tailor would check, and show the outfit as one line from shoulder to shoe.

Why this template: Full-length stances and close crops show the cut and construction of tailoring.

  • Lapels, buttons and pattern matching stay as photographed.
  • Full-length stances show the break of the trouser and the line of the jacket.

In the app, open Formalwear in Templates.

11 · Eyewear Studio

Eyewear

AI eyewear model photos depend on the face. Shoppers judge frame width and shape against a real face, so the model is the fit reference and the light keeps lens tint true.

Why this template: Close-up framing is a good starting point for showcasing your eyewear.

  • Head-and-shoulders crops keep frames and lenses at readable size.
  • Colour-block backdrops give a campaign look without a set build.

In the app, open Eyewear Studio in Templates.

12 · Headwear

Hats & headwear

Hats are hard to photograph flat: the crown collapses and the brim loses its curve. On a model the shape reads correctly, and AI model photos for headwear keep the piece at a readable size in every crop.

Why this template: Head-and-shoulders crops keep the crown and brim of your headwear in frame.

  • Front and three-quarter crops show the crown, brim and any embroidery.
  • A wider shot shows how the piece styles with an outfit.

Category questions.

Which template should I use for my product category?

Start with the template listed for your category on this page: Footwear Studio for shoes, Terracotta for dresses, Underwear Studio for lingerie, Formalwear for tailoring, and so on. The same mapping is suggested in the app when you tell us what you sell during sign-up. Any template works with any garment, so you can switch at any time.

I sell several categories. Do I need several accounts?

No. One account covers every category. You pick the template per job, so a catalog with tops, dresses and footwear runs each product type through the template that suits it.

Can On-Model handle lingerie and swimwear?

Yes. Underwear Studio and Swimwear are built for these categories, with tasteful, catalog-standard poses on adult models and close crops that keep lace, straps and trims sharp.

What about bags, jewelry and small accessories?

Accessories sell on the product itself, so the recommended route is Create Packshot: a clean white-background cutout for the product page, or a styled marketing scene for campaigns. Eyewear and headwear have their own on-model templates.

Can I build a template for my own brand style?

Yes. You can edit any template, extract one from reference images, or build one by describing your shot list in a chat. Your templates then run on every product in the category, so the whole catalog matches.
