# How to share your outfits and find new outfit ideas Canonical: http://localhost:3000/guides/share-outfits-in-the-community Updated: 2026-10-16 > The Outfello Community is a feed of outfits that members built from their own wardrobes. You can browse Trending and New looks, like, save and comment on them, and share your own saved outfits as a flat lay, poster, bento grid or on-person photo. Your profile stays hidden until you post, comment or edit it. Most outfit inspiration online comes from people with very different wardrobes from yours: a stylist's rail, a brand's lookbook, a feed of things you would have to buy first. The Outfello Community is different. Every look in it was built by a member from clothes they already own, so the ideas are ones a real wardrobe can actually produce. This guide covers how to browse it, how to share your own outfits and how to stay in control of what is public. ## What the Community is The Community is a feed of outfits. Each post is a look someone saved in their wardrobe, shown as a picture with the pieces in it listed underneath, an optional caption and up to four tags for the occasion and season. You can do four things with a look: like it, save it, comment on it or open the person's profile to see what else they have shared. Nothing in the Community comes from brands or advertisers. ## How to open the Community Open your wardrobe and tap **Community**, on the left of the bar at the bottom of the screen. The feed has three tabs: - **Trending** shows the looks people are liking most right now. It favours recent posts over old ones, so a good look from today can sit above a popular one from two weeks ago, and it gives a small lift to looks posted in your own language. - **New** shows every public look, newest first. - **Saved** collects the looks you saved. Only you can see this tab. On a phone you can swipe sideways to move between the tabs. Tap a look to open it and see each piece, the caption and the comments. ## Getting outfit ideas from other members The useful way to read the feed is not "what would I buy" but "what could I make". A few habits help: - **Look at the combinations, not the pieces.** A grey knit with wide trousers and loafers is a formula you can rebuild from your own grey knit, even if every piece is different. The guide to [outfit formulas](http://localhost:3000/guides/outfit-formulas) lists combinations like this that work across most wardrobes. - **Filter by occasion in your head.** Tags such as Work, Travel or Wedding tell you what a look was built for. If you have a wedding coming up, those are the posts to study. - **Save anything you want to try.** The Saved tab is a private moodboard. When you plan your week, open it next to the outfit builder and rebuild one or two looks from your own clothes. - **Ask in the comments.** If you are unsure how a look holds up in the rain or whether the trousers are cropped, ask. Type @ and someone's handle to mention them. ## How to share an outfit You can share any outfit you have saved in your wardrobe. There are two ways in: 1. Open a saved outfit and tap **Share**. 2. Or, from the Community, tap **Share a look** and choose an outfit. After you save a new outfit in the outfit builder, Outfello may also ask whether you want to share it. You can always choose **Not now**. ### Choose how the look appears Swipe through the layouts in the share window and pick the one that suits the outfit: - **Flat lay** arranges the garments as if they were laid out on a table. Choose **Arrange pieces** to drag each garment into place and pinch, or use the + and - keys, to resize it. - **Poster** stands the pieces in an arch with swatches of the outfit's colours underneath, which shows off a colour scheme. - **Bento** gives each piece its own tile, with a larger one for the main piece and a tile for the colour palette, which works well for outfits with many accessories. - **On person** shares the photo of the outfit on you, if you have already made one with virtual try-on. It is the closest thing to a mirror selfie, without needing a mirror. ### Add the details - **Caption.** Optional, up to 300 characters. "Where would you wear it?" is a good prompt: a caption that says *office in October, 12 °C* tells other members more than *love this*. - **Tags.** Up to four, from Occasion (Casual, Work, Evening, Date, Party, Wedding, Travel, Sport) and Season (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter). - **Show piece names.** Turn this on to list what each piece is, like "Linen shirt", under the post. - **Who can see it.** **Public** puts the look in the feed and on your profile. **Unlisted** keeps it out of both, so only people with the link can see it. Tap **Post**. Outfello prepares the image, which takes a few seconds, and some posts wait for a quick review before they go live. When it is ready you can copy the link and send it anywhere, including to people without an account. ## Managing your posts Open one of your own posts and use its menu to: - **Edit the post** to change the caption, tags or piece names. The image stays the same. - **Make it unlisted** or public again. - **Turn comments off** or back on. - **Unpublish** it. The post disappears from the Community with its likes and comments, but the outfit stays in your wardrobe. ## Your profile and privacy Every account has a Community profile with a handle such as @your.name. It stays hidden until you do one of three things: share a look, write a comment or edit your handle, display name or bio. Liking, saving and browsing never make it public, so you can look around for as long as you like first. Once your profile is public, anyone can see your handle, name, bio, your public looks and your comments, including people without an account. To set up your profile, open the bell at the top of your wardrobe and choose **Community settings**. There you can: - Change your **handle** (3 to 20 characters: lowercase letters, numbers, dots and underscores). You can change it once every 30 days. - Add a **display name** and a one-line **bio**. - Choose who can **mention** you: everyone or nobody. - Pick which **notifications** you get for likes, comments and mentions, and whether you want a short **weekly email digest**. - See and unblock the members you have **blocked**. ## Keeping the Community friendly Captions, comments and profiles are checked before they appear, and some wait for a short review. Leave out phone numbers, email addresses and links; they are not allowed in posts or comments. If something breaks the rules, open the menu on the post, comment or profile and choose **Report**. Reports are anonymous and the team reviews every one. If you would rather not see someone at all, choose **Block**: you stop seeing each other's posts, comments and profiles, and they are not told. The Community is for people aged 16 and older. ## Getting started If your wardrobe is still empty, start by [digitizing your clothes](http://localhost:3000/guides/digitize-your-wardrobe): a few photos are enough to build your first outfits. Then open the Community, save three looks you like, and try to rebuild one of them from your own pieces. When you are happy with it, share it back. That loop of borrowing a combination and showing your version is what the Community is for. ## Frequently asked questions ### Does it cost anything to use the Community? No. Browsing, liking, saving, commenting and sharing looks work on every plan, including Free. Some ways of presenting a look, like the on-person photo, need a virtual try-on you have already made. ### Will people see my profile as soon as I join? No. Every account has a Community profile, but it stays hidden until you share a look, write a comment or edit your handle, name or bio. Liking and saving posts keep it hidden. ### Can I share a look with only a few people? Yes. Choose Unlisted when you post. An unlisted look stays out of the feed and off your profile, and only people with the link can open it. ### What happens when I delete a post? Unpublishing removes the post from the Community together with its likes and comments. The outfit itself stays in your wardrobe, so you can edit it or share it again later. ### How do I stop someone from seeing my looks? Open the menu on their post, comment or profile and choose Block. You stop seeing each other's posts, comments and profiles, neither of you can mention the other, and they are not told.
