The big entrpreneur 'kill my idea' thread

I think your idea sounds good, let's see what you come up with.  :)

i actually thought of something similar once. you enter body measurements and the software would tell you which designers' tops/bottoms fit your body type.

 

there aren't that many brands to even look at when you're size XL or XXL in supermarket stuff.

 

the point is, you probably wouldn't be able to charge extra for the clothes(your service). people would just google the cheapest place to buy items your site suggested. the online fashion buying people are super anal about sizing etc, often ordering 2 or 3 of the same item in different sizes to get the perfect fit. then return the others for free. but in some demographic it may work, just not the one doing most of the online fashion buying.

 

edit: also the garments' measurements change from season to season, some similar items in different colors might have .5" differences in critical places etc. the designers are taking too much liberties for something that tries to make sense of it all to work.
