NEW YORK, Oct 3, 2001 / FW/ -- Lane Bryant, the nation's largest
plus-size retailer, has teamed with My Virtual Model, Inc., to introduce a new
feature on the Lane Bryant website called 3D-ME@LB. Using this technology,
customers can log onto the Lane Bryant's site
(www.lanebryant.com), and
create a 3D model that looks just like them and "try on" more than 3,000
different outfits.
My Virtual Model, Inc. is the world's first and most comprehensive virtual
technology company that just launched a new life-like 3D-model technology,
called E3. The Lane Bryant website is the first in the world to take advantage
of this new E3 technology whereby women can see a realistic depiction of their
body from many different angles including front, sides and back.
After logging on to the Lane Bryant website, users answer a series of
basic questions to personalize their own 3D model representing their specific
body shape as well as facial characteristics and hair. After creating a
personalized look-alike, customers can try clothes on their virtual image
using the latest plus-size fashions from Lane Bryant.
"Our customers love being able to try out several outfits online before
they go to the store to buy." Says Chris Hansen, executive vice-president of
marketing for Lane Bryant. "It's a time saver, it helps women define which
styles look best on their body, and it's fun!"
With over 650 stores, Lane Bryant provides stylish, high-quality fashion
for plus-size women in sizes 14-28. Lane Bryant offers a wide selection of
apparel from career and casual to eveningwear -- as well as a collection of
accessories, hosiery and intimate apparel.
