Gen Z.
The generation defined by the digital age. And COVID-19, of course.
What is so unique about these Gen Zers?
They are the first generation to be raised completely immersed in technology. They grew up with Television, Internet, iPads, and more.
Their digital reliance has greatly impacted their shopping habits and Gen Zers want the best of both worlds. Their generation is about 50/50 when it comes to in-store vs online shopping; however, they expect an incredible experience on both fronts.
Gen Z expects the same experience online as they get at a brick and mortar store. They want to be able to engage, interact, and try-on products from the comfort of their own home.
Virtual experiences have become increasingly important for online retailers, with online shoppers wanting to “try before they buy”. For jewelry retailers, this is old news as Virtual Try-On is no longer a nice-to-have, but a need.
Expanding on these features, Tangiblee has recently released adjustable backgrounds for virtual silhouettes. This allows online shoppers to swap out the background to visualize the product on virtual models in different environments.
For instance, an online shopper can not only change the height and size of the virtual model, but they can also change the background from a city to a mountain scenes. Online shoppers are able to visualize the usability and look of the product in different environments.
This type of virtual experience is just what Gen Z is looking for. Not only does it provide a high-level of interactivity, but also provides size transparency to reduce returns.

Let's be honest: Your website is more than a catalog in the lively world of online jewelry sales. It's your virtual store. And to truly shine, you need more than just images of your jewelry items.

It is not just the feature - it is the solution proven to stand out and resolve, most importantly, questions of your jewelry customers and help your store sell more.
How it Works
Tangiblee's Build Your Look solution can be opened via a call to action (button) on your PDP; it can be a standalone page on your website or an embedded solution directly into your PDP along with the rest of the images of your jewelry item.
See how some of our clients enabled Look Builder by Tangiblee below:
Starting the discovery with Sethi Couture, the brand is renowned for its signature stackable rings, known as "Sethi Stacks," which allow wearers to create personalized combinations of rings. Sethi Couture used a CTA to open their Build Your Stack solution.
Dana Rebecca Designs has a separate page showing the possibility of stacking and then letting the customers try on the rings virtually.
Customers drag earrings onto a model's ear, guided by easy-to-see hotspots. We simplify it with pop-up help, like "Tap & Drag" and "Tap to Remove." They can undo or redo their choices, experimenting without fear.
Filters help them find exactly what they want, while we also present them with tailored suggestions and pre-made looks.
A live cart shows their stack and price as they build, so it is super easy to purchase everything at once.
To complete the shopping, the "Try It On" functionality lets them see the look on themselves using their phone. Yes! They can try on the selected items directly from that screen because this is a part of Tangiblee's experience - no limitation on content - only the maximum value of the displayed catalog.
With Look Builder by Tangiblee, jewelry retailers can make a personal style guide for their customers. The Inspiration Gallery shows the best combinations to promote to customers.
Helzberg, a well-known national jewelry retailer with a long-standing reputation for offering elegance and a wide range of jewelry styles, has a separate page, "Curate Your Earring Stacks" and an “Inspiration Gallery” to help the customers make their choices.
Charm Builder, which is another available model, shows different options if you are focused on some specific categories.
Helping shoppers become their stylists by giving them access to the perfect looks and advice is easy and fun. They can compare and stack various jewelry and watch categories, virtually try on their selections, and receive curated options.

2. Boost Your Bottom Line (and Your Metrics!)
