Finding the Perfect Product Optimized and Intuitive Search Tool
How does an optimized search tool make style happen?
To enable users to find what they are looking for amongst
an extensive fashion assortment provides an efficient and
enjoyable online experience, as it gives the consumer a real
answer to their needs. Style happens through an intuitive
search tool and an optimized product display; the
consumer can then easily pick their fashion favourites.
Looking for something floral? A polka-dot cocktail
dress or a striped crop top with embroidery? If it
exists, we have it!
Q
Online users generally struggle with finding the
perfect product at the perfect time. How do
we accelerate that proccess whilst engaging
consumers? At Stylight, over 850 attributes are
used to categorize each product, making it easier
for the fashion consumer to find their perfect
match. From price filter and colours, to style and
pattern, if you are looking for a „pink polka dot
sweater“ you will find it at Stylight.
To make style happen, a machine learning
process has been developed, allowing products
to go live quickly, with the total being over 75M in
September 2015.
The optimized search tool enables the user to
enjoy and discover fashion, thanks to multiple
filters plus an intuituve user experience and,
amongst other things, the use of multiple
product images.ELISABETH KOHLBACH, HEAD OF PRODUCT PROCESSING

you all the options you need to be the you you want to
be. As it is sometimes hard to recreate all your lifestyle
