Lacoste Brasil · Fashion & Apparel

They sent sketches.
We sent back the lookbook.

Lacoste Brasil only receives low-resolution sketches from global HQ — some as small as 6 KB. We turned them into the brand’s first AI-produced lookbook: 3,119 approved studio images across all 8 categories, delivered in 4 weeks. No agencies, no photoshoots.

Loft Style · Womenswear

A mannequin photo in.
A campaign model out.

Loft Style sends each new collection as a PDF with photos shot on store mannequins. Milano turns every look into 5 editorial views — concept, front, back and details — on the same AI model, in the same signature studio, drop after drop. Nine collections so far. Not a single photoshoot.

Even the back views match the real product — pockets, waistband, fabric weight.

One face for the whole brand

The same AI model appears in every look of every collection — a consistent brand face that a rotating cast of photoshoot models could never give you. Customers recognize her. The brand owns her.

Usaflex · Footwear

5 artists, 30 days of Photoshop.
Now: 1 person, 1 hour.

Usaflex photographs one sample per shoe. Every other colorway in the catalog used to be assembled by hand: 5 Photoshop artists reading an Excel file that maps materials to shoe parts — 30 days per cycle. We trained an AI that reads that same mapping and re-skins the photo itself. Here is the actual workflow, step by step.

Step 1

HQ sends a spreadsheet, not a product

Each season arrives as an Excel file that says which material and color goes on each part of each shoe — sole, upper, laces, trim — plus swatches and reference photos. For years, 5 Photoshop artists translated this by hand. 90 images took 30 days.

Step 2

Photograph one sample. The AI generates the rest.

Same shoe, same lighting — materials and colors swapped per the Excel spec. No second photoshoot, ever.

Step 3

Every angle, no re-shoot

Each generated colorway also comes in every angle e-commerce needs — laces, stitching, perforation and sole stay consistent in all of them.

Cartier · Luxury — demonstration

The $2M Christmas campaign.
Recreated for $1K, in one day.

Cartier’s Christmas 2025 campaign took 5 months, a 35+ person crew and a $2,000,000 budget. After it aired, we recreated it at matching luxury quality — one person, one day, $1,000. Watch them side by side and decide for yourself.

The pattern across every case

Weeks become days

30 days → 1 hour. 1 month → 10 minutes. 5 months → 1 day.

Teams of dozens become one

One operator on the platform replaces artists, agencies and crews.

Photoshoots become optional

Sketches, spreadsheets and mannequin photos are enough input.

One-offs become engines

Loft Style runs monthly. Lacoste’s next collection takes days, not weeks.

Your catalog could be next

Send us whatever you have today — sketches, PDFs, mannequin photos — and we’ll show you what it looks like as a campaign.
